Part of me wants to get covid-19, take 2 weeks of sick time, build up antibodies, then be free from social distancing 🤗

OP- that's the problem with the whole country rn. No one realises the long term impact of this disease, and the 'chalta hai marr thodi na jayenge' attitude doesn't help either.

Sometimes, when I think like this, just to get a break from office...
The next thought that I have is - Am I in a way mocking the patients and the front line warriors. There are people who are battling to be alive, the death toll is rising each day... there are familes who have been destroyed either by death of someone or by the financial crisis... this is the real face of Covid 19.
I certainly feel that I am mocking or being highly negligent of the fact that how much trouble some people are going through.

Nothing is more important that keeping yourself and your family safe.
Rest everything can wait...

Please take good care. All the best. 🙂👍

If you genuinely feel that way, you should definitely consider taking 2 weeks off of work, to release that mental pressure, and rejuvenate yourself by spending some time with your loved ones and doing what makes you happy.

Catching COVID won't help you with this. Instead it will make you physically and mentally exhausted. I hope you (or anyone, for that matter) never catch COVID, and come out of this pandemic stronger than ever!

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her. I don’t expect her to make every decision correct nor do we have to agree with all of them. I believe she should be correct around 75 percent of the time but I believe she is in the 50 percent range. I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.
