Covid, the Bomb of the Twenty-twenties

Covid, the bomb of the twenty-twenties, from which no country in either the Northern or Southern Hemisphere can escape. Nowhere entirely safe, all could be traps if landed there. No hard, barren country or tropical paradise to be exiled to; no place on the world map from which to avoid restrictions, or the barrage of information – mis and dis – regarding the virus and vaccination. No room for the truth of your own experience, and no space to wander, think or speak freely.
Covid, the BOMB of the twenty-twenties.
