Title

An ode to Covid

Description

Better than before, not better than before before.

Father

It hasn't changed too much. When I was sick, I wore a mask around my home as I do the chores and cooking. I'm already extremely clean. I watch movies, docs, play games etc.

I am not an essential worker. I would have been if I wasn't already sick with a separate disease, but I had planned on part time school this summer.

My concern has changed over time, it would be mostly that we have no vaccine, and the people I see that have complete disregard for distancing as few as they may be.

I was sick for over 2 months with it. I still have trouble breathing properly.

I take issue with the idea of top government providing leadership outside of reinforcing what experts say, and they should only be deferring to them.

It will be probably until Spring 2021 until things start to resemble what we see as normal. Anything more is rushed.

I don't think there will be much to change, this was something that was unforeseen, even though it should have been prepared for. In that vain, the best part may be countries and society as a whole being ready with PPE for such an event. Better or worse? Hmm, Handshakes are stupid relics of a bygone era.

It is too much to say in this box, but libertarianism can pretty much lay it's grave now.
