Merry Covid Christmas …

After this weird Covid crisis we’ve all had, all around the world, can we safely get together for a Christmas get together with family? I hope we can. I live in South Australia, not many world travellers around where I live, and Covid has stayed away, mostly.

But all it might take is one person not to be careful, and wham, Covid might strike. That frightening thought is there, hovering just out of sight. Famous people have caught it, and lived, well known people are being vaccinated, so they may go on living, health workers, and other essential others are being vaccinated …

And on various websites, and other social media outlets, other people are talking about risks, and who deserves or needs to be vaccinated, and who shouldn’t be vaccinated. When the time comes, if it comes, for me to make a decision about being vaccinated, I will go with the best thought out way, and go that way. Science, evidence, feedback from my medical people, that is what my decision will be based on.

I’ve looked at the most up to date words about my Multiple Sclerosis medication (Gilenya), and Covid, and it seems I’m not really any more at risk than the general population, so I will continue with my social distancing, and hand washing, and stay well, I hope.

But we have to make it through, and beyond Christmas and the New Year first, and hey, I still have some presents to wrap in time for Christmas Day!

I wish everyone best wishes for the festive season, and I hope you have a safe and lovely time!
