Yesterday the committee that has been giving advice to the government about Covid had an emergency meeting yesterday. With Omicrom they are advising a hard lockdown; all non-essential stores will have to close.
The cabinet is having an emergency meeting today, but the expectation is that they will follow the advice. Normally Covid press conferences are on Tuesday, but they want to prevent people from all rushing to the stores, cafes and restaurants in the coming days, so there will be a press conference today and the lockdown will be in effect immediately. I wouldn't be surprised if the press conference is earlier than the normal time of 7pm. So I'll have to keep an eye on the news in case we have to close early today.
I'm expecting it not only to be very busy today, but I'm also expecting customers to have really short fuses. So I'm expecting a lot of discussions (or at least attempts of getting into a discussion) and meltdowns today. I just hope I'll have time to eat lunch.
