The quarantine begins

16 March 2020 · Town

It started suddenly. The kindergarten is closed from tomorrow. School is closed for three weeks, "maybe more." At the bazaar people bought rice and flour as in the old stories. The pharmacy ran out of masks in an hour. On the hill the priest said the Qurbana will be shorter, with chairs in the courtyard.

Dastan's shifts continue, of course. The heating plant is a "strategic object." He comes home, takes off everything at the door and washes in the yard with a bucket. I stand in the doorway with the baby and say: "Tell me, you are healthy?" We look like people from a film.
