In need of a quarantine flag

[anna_wing]

My office staff are currently contending with COVID, dengue fever, random unknown viruses and a possible case of salmonella poisoning. Mother Nature, red in tooth and claw...I feel a great desire to just hoist the black-and-yellow outside the window and call it a day.

I'm stocking us up on COVID rapid test kits today, since we're doing daily testing until we have a week without infections.

Yikes! It's getting hard to remember when a cold or mild flu were all we had to worry about.

[anna_wing]

I know! None of these is out of the ordinary, but having them all at once does seem a bit of an imposition on my patience.

Yikes, that's a lot! I hope everyone recovers soon and completely.

[anna_wing]

Me too!

Barring black and yellow flags, rapid tests is the next best thing. I take it you're not working from home?

[anna_wing]

No, we're all back at the office. It's actually much more effective generally, and the staff prefer it.

Blimey. I hope everyone makes it in one piece, that sounds tough!

[anna_wing]

They're all not abnormal taken separately (COVID-19 - normal problem now and forever). It's having them all at once within a fortnight that is somewhat irritating....

All luck and care in staying safe.

That's a lot of assorted ailments! Stay well.

[anna_wing]

Thanks! Doing our best!

That sounds way too much! I hope it abates soon and everyone comes through it okay.

Thanks, I hope so too! Yesterday I had to add mycoplasma to the list...where on earth are they finding all these infections?
