Covid-19 scares: Cough, Cough! Somebody’s coughing?

Cough, cough!
Somebody's coughing!
Who's coughing?

Cough, cough!
I heard you coughing last night!
Any fever?

Cough, cough!
You didn't cover your mouth!
Now it's everywhere!!!

Cough, cough!
Tossing and gasping for air!
Is this ICU, or a nightmare?

With COVID-19,
Every cough or sneeze
seems so loud, so fatalistic!

The staff are exhausted.
The full ICUs are so real
yet they seem unreal!

When will this nightmare end?
Cough, cough!

****
Wearing mask

Covid has since been declared as endemic here. Brave ones are going around without masks.

However, I still wear a mask when in crowded places. Are you?

And now we have the Monkey-Pox?

    I am hopeful this pandemic will end one day. But until more people take it seriously and do their part to follow guidelines, it’s going to prolong it for all of us.

    On a lighter more humourous note, in the early days of the pandemic, I would rather fart in public than cough or sneeze! šŸ˜†

  5. So difficult and seems too scary to many people but permanent separation from God is what is really scary and all else is an illusion and nothing to fear the enemy wants us to fear and is playing us for effect so Fear Not! Push ahead bravely and putting our hope in Him we will never lose! Amen šŸ˜‰šŸ‘šŸŒˆšŸŒžšŸ™ šŸ™šŸ’— āœļø šŸ’—šŸ™ šŸ™

    1. All dragged out for effect and to keep the fear mongers fanning the flames while motivating! Could have been 6 weeks to herd immunity; been played like an instrument; the bad guys get the sheeple to take a jab and alter the course of immunity permanently, an unnatural act by the most nefarious! Do you trust Gates, Fauci, Xi Jinping or even Biden? I didn’t think so!
