Yes, COVID-19 is still with us…

August 22, 2025

Be smart, be careful!

love,

Janice

    I’m so sorry to hear this. Rest and take care of yourself. I’m traveling to Ireland next month, and I’m concerned about it, too, so I’m taking masks, Tylenol and test kits. I got it on a trip to Shetland and I don’t want to go through that again.
    Get well soon!

    So insidious. That’s why we need to keep testing. I found that this round of COVID was at least a little less severe. Be well and keep yourself first!

    Oh no! There’s nothing about it in the media, however it’s still doing the rounds here in Sydney, Australia. I have never had it, despite the family all coming down with it a few years back – not sure why, but I’m certainly not complaining.
    Take good care of yourself, hope you make a full and speedy recovery.

    How awful for you. Hope you feel better soon. Perhaps you need another holiday to convalesce and recuperate?
