This was one of the many times that we have received communication from the government--for more than 60 days running, including weekends--whether from the ministry of Health or the cabinet secretary informing us of new Covid-19 cases, deaths and recoveries.
People would literally wait by their TVs or even radios to listen to government plans on combating the virus.
One of the things I remember keenly about living in the US was that in times of tornadoes, we would get warnings just before one was observed to be near our homes.
The first time I ever heard a tornado warning siren was during the wee hours of the morning and it was raining heavily, it was such a heavy downpour with thunderstorms but even through that noise, I heard the siren wailing.
Once I took a walk to the library, another time a group of friends and myself went shopping, because we were able to calculate that we had a few hours before a tornado actually hit our city, the sirens had become part of my life.
