The high deaths from covid during the past few weeks, since the move towards "living with covid" exceeded my expectations.
I had expected two deaths a day, but it seems to be at least two times higher.
There is a bright side.

I don't know. I did not want to listen to propaganda speeches beating around the bush.
But my neighbour said he sounded like a biological father giving you the assurances and comfort and that you won't be on your own.
Covid can only help those who help themselves?
Forum: Improve right-turn signal system at traffic junctions
A right-turn signal that lets drivers turn only when the green arrow comes on has been implemented at many traffic junctions.
I understand that this represents a safer option for vehicles on the road. It makes sense for busy traffic junctions as it is a good control function.
However, it is not the same at junctions where the traffic flow is very low. I have seen vehicles waiting to turn right but cannot even though the road is empty, because the arrow is red. This can be rather inefficient.
This has resulted in heavier traffic at some junctions with multiple roads converging there.
More thorough studies should be done to improve this right-turn signal system so that drivers can have a smoother and more efficient ride on the road.
Answer- Patience and a little inconvenience go a long way.
Constant island-wide standardised traffic junction lights are the way to go.
Happy Countries???
Since the report began in 2012, Nordic countries — which include Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, plus the Faroe Islands, Greenland and Aland — consistently turn up at the top of the list. (The United States, on the other hand, typically lands somewhere around 18th or 19th place.)
In 2019, Finland was ranked No. 1 for the second year in a row. In 2017, it was Norway, and Denmark grabbed first place in 2013 and 2016. Switzerland nabbed the top rank in 2015.
This is no coincidence. Nordic countries rank so high on the happiness report because they have things like free education and healthcare, low crime rates, cushy social security nets, a relatively homogeneous population and they’re fairly prosperous.
Perhaps most importantly, these countries prioritize balance, which is the “formula for happiness,” Sachs says. “They’re not societies that are aiming for all of the effort and time to becoming gazillionaires, they’re looking for a good balance of life and the results are extremely positive,” he says.
“We find happiness in our own pursuits,” like our professional work and passions, he adds. “And by living in societies that are more balanced.”
