New Normality day 75.
From today's local paper:

Armengol detailed this Thursday that in recent days they have worked on three new measures to try to stop transmission within the community and protect the population. This measure, which will be approved early next week, will imply the application of general instructions, such as reducing public and private meetings to 5 people ; the expansion of diagnostic tests in those intervened areas or municipalities and a greater involvement of municipalities. The most extreme of these norms would be the prohibition of the population from leaving home at night and limiting mobility, except to go to work, go to school or attend essential services.
Salut will have the power to determine the measures to be applied, which could be different in each area or municipality and of different "hardness", depending on the severity of the health situation. The Minister of Health, Patricia Gómez, has valued that the measures that now exist in the Balearic Islands are very demanding and that they are assimilated to those of phase 1 of the de-escalation.


So, back to phase 1 in some areas, and almost back to lockdown. 14 new cases yesterday, and 20 today. It may not sound much, but the population of the island is less than a small city in the UK.
For Abstract Thursday I wanted to try to represent some of the weirdness surrounding us just now. The house is our safe zone; anywhere else is no-man's land. Looking out may not seem any different, but if the virus were visible (and you'd ingested some conscious-altering substances) it may look something like this.
