The vulnerable are always vulnerable
Every year, and in particular every winter,parents and loved ones of people who are immuno-supressed or immuno-compromised face the same challenges and worries. What to you is just a sore throat or a cold sore, to them is a potentially life threatening systemic illness.Days or weeks on intravenous antibiotics in an isolation room with anxious waits for blood results to see if the dreaded (mighty) neutrophils are recovering.
No conceivable good can come from any situation where people will lose loved one, face restrictions and suffer the associated anxiety. Hopefully however, this epidemic will pass with as little hardship as possible and next winter, people will use their new found awareness to consider the challenges the vulnerable always face.
