Well, that was a nice big chunk of good news posts to read through today - thanks all (though sorry to those whose kids are struggling with the school situation, it’s so bloody hard).
Is it me, or are the over-the-top doom scenario threads increasing. I’ve seen a few of you on them offering patient, alternative viewpoints. But there seems to be a hardcore group of posters who are determined to push the vaccines are useless/govt relishing a totalitarian regime message. I take my hat off to you, as I’ve given up trying to show some positive viewpoints. I keep wanting to say “come check out the good news thread, it’s really helpful”, but worry that they’re going to bring the heightened negativity over here!
My good news is that it’s now 23.5 hours until mum gets her first vaccine! She’s 73 and diabetic, so will be a relief to get the first one done. I’m driving her there, but she’s able to go in on her own so I won’t be able to see what the set-up is like.
Other than that, I’ll be taking a Covid break later to watch Trump’s defence team start their presentation. Which will make Covid seem like a minuscule worry for a few hours!
