The day after

After a short night, there are not much news so far. The workers in Thushans garden had to stay over night because of the curfew but that was lifted this morning. Watsela did not have to rush to the hospital. As a pulmonologist she could only assist in emergency actions and they seem to have enough people for that. She also said there were enough blood donations (The only thing I could have helped with).
Obviously there is no school for the kids.
I think the family hopes that no news are good news. The closest friends and family were in contact via phone yesterday and if somebody else they know was hurt, they would have heard about it by now.

Ein Artikel, der auch erwähnt warum die sozialen Medien geschlossen wurden (und immernoch sind), findet sich hier:

Ansonsten gibt es “nur” die traurige Neuigkeit, daß die Todeszahlen wohl nocheinmal nach oben korrigiert wurden (290). Man erzählt mir die ganze Zeit wieviele Ausländer es getroffen hat und daß keine Deutschen dabei seien. Doch das ist ja irgendwie weder ein Trost, noch finde ich die Nationalität der Opfer relevant.
