That compliance with the measures during this second corona wave was going to be a long-term task, Prime Minister Alexander De Croo said in the House on Thursday. During his visit to the Onze-Lieve-Vrouw hospital in Aalst on Wednesday morning, he repeated this and added that the corona measures in our country will have to be continued for “months at a time”. “Until there is a vaccine, we will have to deal with it a lot more strictly than during the summer,” said the prime minister in a conversation with King Filip and the care staff of a hospital in Aalst.

It was the king who asked the question: “When are we going to see the effects of the measures?” Prime Minister De Croo took the floor: “Even if we are going to see the effects, we have to make it very clear that it is going to be a long-term effort,” he warned. “At some point the figures will fall, but the figures will have to fall for a very long time. The biggest task is that people must adhere to the measures for a long period of time to ensure that the situation in the hospitals normalizes. That will take months. We are going to have to comply with the measures for months at a time. That will require a great deal of effort from all of us. ”
