Y'all remember the early days if covid when we were buying toilet paper and accepting imminent death?
I most vividly remember the Italian experience where some guys sister died of covid at home, and they were just like "wrap the body with a sheet and leave it somewhere safe, we'll come get it in a week if youre still alive then."
I remember the early reports of covid surviving for 5 days on surfaces, and thats when I was like "Whelp, we're fucked."
Yeps. My kids were home and my wife was a nurse going into one of the hardest hit areas of US each day. I ended up working from home the first few months until enough stuff broke that I had to come in. I lost about one person I knew per month for the first four months.
Fortunately I had accepted imminent death decades ago so while everyone around me was having existential breakdowns I could wander around, hand out hot water bottles, tea, and fuzzy blankets, and see how many times in a row it can be Taco Tuesday before they start to question their sanity.
Yeah, Italy had a fun time in February and March of 2020.
