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.
