A short story about the extensive spread of the pandemic.

The Corona zigzag

(Sunday October the 4th)

When Lior Bosni opened his apartment’s front door and turned to the living room, he met the curious stare of his surprised wife.

‘You’re rather early my dear, what happened?’

‘What we always feared that will happen, they closed us down and I don’t have to tell you who...’

‘That’s so unlucky from your and your coworkes’ point of view, because things are going to change quite drastically in just a few days.’

‘What are you talking about Shiri dear people are finding funny excuses to disobey to those cruel emergency regulations. We saw both of us what happened at the Tel Aviv demonstrations last night...’

‘Well yes you’re right my dear, but a few seconds before you retuned home, I’ve heard a health department representative declaring that the level of sickness has been lowered, from the height of almost ten thousand a day to two thousand three hundred...’

‘I see, he simply panicked by what happened in Tel Aviv last night, and he fears a violent rebellion, which will end up his career; because too many among us know already that the steep rise of the level of sickness was his doing, and of the ministry of health under his direct orders.
