8 Sep 2020 The research on the San which is mentioned on 1 September is very relevant for the voluntary work that I am going to do at Window of Hope Centre in Ghanzi. It has been done in D'Kar, 45 km north of Ghanzi and has given many answers to my questions concerning the San in Ghanzi. The preparations for the voluntary work have become easier owing to the research. There is hope that the next journey to Botswana can be made end of April 2021, as there is a small chance that it anti COVID-19 vaccine could be used beginning 2021. I hope that by that time the Botswana border will be opened again for foreigners. 1 Sep 2020 Seeing as the whole world is still waiting for an anti COVID-19 vaccine, I am still at home and not in Botswana. What I can do is read the Botswana newspapers, which do not bring very interesting news from our point of view. The Patriot on Sunday informs: "COVID-19 ticking time bomb. Panic as Prince Marina Hospital records 31 cases in August. Ngamiland registers 4 Covid-19 cases. Even on a number of 2,2 million inhabitants compare to 17 million in The Netherlands, this is not much. Six people are supposed to have died from the virus in the whole of Botswana. Is this correct? I am also reading research papers on the problems and (living) circumstances of the San and am trying to keep in contact with a few people. |
