There is many a slip between cup and lip. Beware of false dawns. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. These are all familiar words of advice.

The crisis feeling is gone after three different waves of the disease. Cases of Covid-19 are reducing, hospitalisations are down, along with admissions to ICU, and deaths have reduced.
We are beating this virus. But beware, there are perils on the home stretch. We are not there yet and there is danger in thinking it's all over.
