President AMLO told Mexico that the end of Covid-19 was at hand, then caught it himself.

Singapore's contact tracing app, supposedly intended to detect possible transmission of dangerous virus, will also be used to detect possible transmission of dangerous dissident ideas.

I would be glad to let a contact-tracing device track when I come close to another contact-tracing device, provided they don't record my whereabouts the rest of the time and it releases information about me only when I tell it to.

Police shut down an illegal nightclub in Lawrence, Mass, for spreading Covid-19.

A nightclub is not a horrible thing In ordinary times, but nowadays that sort of thing keeps Covid-19 spreading and evolving.

The UK government using Covid-19 as an excuse to ban demonstrations outside the trial of people accused of toppling the statue of slave-trafficker Edward Colston.

Of course, people must take precautions against transmitting Covid-19 whenever they come near strangers, and that includes when protesting. They must wear masks all the time while there, and stay two meters apart. As long as they do so, they must be allowed to protest.

Protesting is more than a human right, it is a crucial aspect of democracy.
