Anger

[kerravonsen]

I am weary of
Rage simmering in my bones
Anger's acid eroding my peace
More bad news
More bad news
More bad news
No
Don't tell me
More bad news
I am bottled in my home
Masked for my life
While others waste their breath
Spreading death.
Hugs are the currency I need
Alas, they are few
And far between
In my little household of one.
It has been a long, long, long, long, long
Pandemic.
It ain't over
And I am weary.

The government has basically given up completely. It is now no longer required to report COVID infection nor is it mandatory to isolate any more. They're just assuming that everyone is going to get COVID, and that it's just going to be like the flu. Well, f**k them. I'm immunocompromised because of one chronic illness, and I have breathing issues and fatigue due to another. I don't want to risk getting hospitalised because I can't breathe, nor do I want to compound my fatigue problems by getting Long COVID.

Am sorry to hear that. I see less and less people wearing masks and someone in the media said 'we're living in a post-Covid world' (whut?). I have to actively search for weekly covid figures and we're getting a new spike in cases... and we've got open borders again. Hmm.
