It’s been a long pandemic…

♫ Everything is terrible ♫
Reminds me of Dennis Leary’s “Downtrodden song”:
Everything is horrible, yeah, really really really terrible
I’m really depressed, I’m really downtrodden
I’m downtrodden square, uh-huh
The whole world is doomed, yeah. We’re all gonna die.
Twenty-five thousand four hundred and seventy-two people die every single minute, uh-huh oh yeah
Seventeen hundred and fifty people just died
Cancer, death, AIDS, inflation, taxes, George Bush
Hell, Satan, cancer of the face
Cancer of the colon
Cancer of the wrist
And John Denver on compact disc
Three-word slogan
Hands. Face. Space. Get a test. And self-isolate. If you have symptoms.
As slogans go, it is perhaps the most confusing of Boris Johnson’s lockdown soundbites – which is saying something for a campaign whose previous tripartite offerings include the widely derided “Stay alert, control the virus, save lives”, the disappointing sequel to “Stay home, protect the NHS, save lives”.
Plague-free (so far)
Took the opportunity offered from work to get an antibody screening test for covid-19. The possible outcomes were either no exposure, exposed and infectious or exposed and no longer infectious. So far, I haven’t been exposed at all – with the caveat being the 5% false positive/negative rate and if I’ve been exposed within the last 72 hours, it would be too early to detect. Still, good news so far, touch wood.
UK response to covid
In a nutshell…
I had to wear a mask and now…
Introverts, unite! Alone! At home!
Don’t be a redshirt
This is my life now
