Good morning, friends, and happy Thursday. <\/strong>The big news of the day from where we sit is Moustafa Madbouly\u2019s warning yesterday to take the second wave of covid-19 seriously.<\/p>\n

<\/a> Covid-19 cases are ticking up again, and the PM is not happy. <\/strong>Madbouly said at yesterday\u2019s<\/a>cabinet meeting<\/a> that citizens need to continue to take precautionary measures in public places, and he has instructed officials to crack down on people in violation of rules. Soaring case numbers in neighboring countries are a cause of major concern for the government, Madbouly said at a post-meeting press conference (watch, runtime: 3:11<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The situation in Egypt is still \u201cunder control\u201d as the rate of increase in the official case <\/strong>count isn\u2019t <\/strong>as high as most other countries<\/strong> that are in the grips of a second wave, but the situation could change once the weather cools down, World Health Organization Regional Adviser Maha Talaat told Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Mohamed Sherdy (watch, runtime: 3:58<\/a>) last night. Meanwhile, the Health Ministry is also taking into account the upcoming flu season in its treatment plan for new covid-19 cases, Assistant Minister Noha Assem told Sherdy (watch, runtime: 28:04<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Not the way we\u2019d like to start the day, but there you go. <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a> US ELECTION WATCH- It\u2019s debate night in the US of A. <\/strong>US President Donald Trump and democratic contender Joe Biden will face off tonight for the final presidential debate ahead of the 3 November election. Trump\u2019s advisors want him to present his \u201caffirmative vision\u201d for the US and attempt to sway undecided voters, says the New York Times<\/a>. The Biden campaign is working to have the presidential hopeful maintain his composure and show that, unlike Trump, he can lead the nation out of covid-19. The debate comes just 12 days before election day and three weeks after last month\u2019s debate was nothing short of a \"spectacle\"<\/a> with little policy substance. Many Americans have already voted and Trump is trailing in national polls.<\/p>\n

You can stream the debate live on YouTube<\/a><\/strong> at 9 pm ET (that\u2019s 3 am CLT for those keeping track at home).<\/p>\n
