COVID-19: Closer and Closer

By now, someone you know knows someone who has been infected with the Covid virus, and this ‘someone’ may not even be aware of it due to the all too often asymptomatic nature of the disease that is turning people into super carriers. 

Unfortunately, I know someone who lost two members of his extended family to the pandemic last week. Others in this particular social grouping are showing symptoms. The rest of this story will be unfolding for a long time yet.

Note: As the second wave builds, much of it will continue lie undetected under the surface like the building of a tsunami in deep water. Any notion that the worst of the pandemic is over is simple minded naiveté.
