Today is the first day in which confirmed cases have grown less than the previous day (6 vs 8 thousands) if we can trust the official numbers.

Seven or eight days after first symptoms infected people either get much worse or not, then some die in the few next days.

So we could see the same death rate of 800, or even a little worse, for the next week or two, that would double the current 6,500 toll. Then it would slow down, but I believe it's too optimist to set the limit in two more weeks to end the quarantine. With more masks and tests maybe we could start working selectively.

I'm visiting Spain, staying on La Palma in the Canary Islands, and today was Day 16 of quarantine for me. I had to leave the house to return my rental car. It was so nice to get out of the house just for a little while! Here's a pic I took on the way back to the airport.

I feel you, I had pneumonia two weeks before the lockdown, so been one month at home now, as I've been self-isolating. Good thing you managed to get out for a while, be careful of the police who fines people on sight and stay away from others.

The office that rented me the car closed, and I was not able to get in touch with them. I called the US Embassy and they were able to help me arrange for the car's return. They're main tip was to make sure I had a copy of the rental agreement with me.
