The Worrying New Virus
Are we already talking about the start of an epidemic?
Some people are still wondering about the origin of the COVID-19 virus. What I do know is that at the very beginning of the pandemic, at least when it started to make noise around the world and here in France, around March 2020, I met a beautiful woman. We had dinner in a brasserie, met again a few days later for a game of pool and a few drinks, kissed in the parking lot across the street as we left, and then met again a few days later for the very last time in a rather strange atmosphere. The pretty bird had then flown away with the emerging pandemic.
As far as I know, I’ve never had COVID, I was inoculated for the first time in the middle of a forest, my sister let the virus get into her three times (unintentionally) and she’s still alive. I know that this virus has killed a lot of people, that it has made a lot of people suffer and that it is still doing a lot of damage today, so I’m thinking deeply about all these humans and I hope that they will feel better in this month of April. As for me, my family is doing pretty well and so am I, but I always make sure to take my bottle of hydroalcoholic gel with me when I leave the house. Yes, I have OCD. But that’s not the topic for today!
