Not the beer, of course! Death to you, Covid-19 Mass-murderer Coward in hiding, festering, attacking surreptitiously Sucker-punching Men and women, young and old. Babies and animals, too. I bet you hate puppies! Shame on you throwing poison darts at people in the dark! Come into the light, you monster you! Is it because you know your ugly mug is good enough for decking? Die off soon, evil one. Date written: 05/05/2020

Sorry, it is not going away like a rainy day. They just mutate and will be back Pneumonia and the regular flu has killed far more last year. PRR

Unfortunately, you're right, Panagiota:-( I just hope we'll be much better prepared for phase 2! Stay safe out there, friend!

I sense this was a wholly cathartic write, got the blood pumping just reading it. xomo

Nicely done Ed, I hope it does die off soon but I think it may be around for way too long!

Thank you, Tania:-) Unfortunately, people not using common sense(crowding the beaches, protesting stay-at-home without wearing masks) will prolong the life of this virus:-(
