Over-communicate

In some hotels do not have room no 13, some flights also don’t have 13th and 17th row. In Brazil and Italy the unlucky no is 17, not 13. What is superstition?

I had given the name “post-covid” because this is the world's first Christmas after the Covid affecting people in Wuhan, in China at the end of 2019. In this first Christmas after Covid, there is uncertainty about how to celebrate everything. The whole world is going through a partial or full lockdown. Its depression and whimper can be heard everywhere. Streets are almost seemed like deserts. Police patrolling in a bid to reassure our communities and maintain public safety during the pandemic. We know these restrictions are difficult for our people to follow, but we must obey all these rules and not step outside of the rules. Prolonged uncertainty and fear make our lives difficult. Peop
