Russia breaks its record of new infections and Moscow is preparing to remain confined until June or July

Russia woke up this Thursday with a record of infections: 11,231 new cases in one day. This brings the total balance to 177,160 officially declared cases and places Russia among the most positive countries in the world: the fifth after the US, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom. The new cases represent an increase of 6.8% compared to the previous day, after being consolidated at the beginning of the month around 10,000 new cases a day.
The Kremlin has relativized these figures, which despite everything are still better than those of many politicians in Western countries: "There are other polls that paint a different picture," said the president's spokesman. Worse is the Russian government, headed by the infection of its prime minister and with two new Cabinet members who have joined the coronavirus casualties.

The new normal
I never thought I would write these words, but here they go: I have learned to be conservative. I'm still not saying it is; I say that, after running away like the plague all my life, now I understood how it could be. Slow, overwhelming, the awareness that we are not going to live as we lived attacks me. I have days and days missing the life that I think I lost; days and days thinking about those things that I liked about my life before the virus that will surely not return - the trips, the happiness of mixing without problems with people in markets or stadiums or demonstrations, the unexpected encounters and conversations, the warmth of a hug -. Days and days regretting his probable disappearance; days and days imagining how I could keep them. That is, I understood now, the conservative's melancholic and reactive attitude: he knows that something escapes him and he wonders how he could get something of that something to not completely disappear or return somehow. Adults are often thought to become conservative because they want to live better. I think it is a mistake: they do it, if they do it, because they think they have lived better: no, in my time ... That is, I think, being conservative, and it is giving me. Because now, it seems, the afterlife begins.

The new normal
Or the same as the States do, these days, so many citizens, when they lecture the “offenders”, attack them, throw the weight of their best intentions from their windows. It is the danger of just causes or, worse, good causes. When we have one — when we think we have one — she justifies everything. Then we can allow ourselves all those behaviors that we generally repress, because the cause requires it. Now we have the best - or one of the best -: preserving the health of the community, the life of the community. And, thanks to that, thousands of citizens before, respectful? Fearful? Repressed? they became true police harpies, full of reason and sacrosanct anger, who dedicate themselves to telling others what to do - and all for the cause. If it wasn't disgusting it would make you laugh. And, above all, if the suspicion did not fit that this behavior is here to stay: that mutual control "for the good cause" will be one of the bases of the new normality.

Russia without coronavirus parades, but has its monuments

MOSCOW (AP) - Russians will not be able to celebrate Victory Day, which marked the end of World War II, this year, with the imposing military parades always due to the coronavirus. But they will be able to appreciate a number of national monuments in tribute to the value and suffering of their people that are part of their national identity. They give so much importance to these monuments that it is common for newlyweds to be photographed in front of them. There are them everywhere, some so big that they attract attention and others so modest that you can pass by without realizing that they are there. The most striking is the "The Motherland Calls!", The tallest statue in Europe, 85 meters (278 feet), which shows a woman brandishing a sword that rises above the city of Volgograd, the ancient Stalingrad . It is the epicenter of a complex reminiscent of the Battle of Stalingrad in which some 2 million people died before the Soviet forces could reject the Nazis.
Following Nevsky Prospekt, the main avenue in the city, a much smaller sign reminds people of the suffering they have experienced. "Citizens! When the artillery fire falls, this side of the street is more dangerous, ”says the poster. Alerts of that kind abound.
