Waiting for a Bus

You wait and wait and are at the end of your tether
waiting hours for a bus, then three come together.
It was just like that as regards the Covid vaccine:
not one but a trio appeared on the world’s scene.
Others are being developed and there’ll be more;
we are told that it is a lifeline that we can’t ignore
and because we value our health we shall comply
so that the chance of survival will for sure multiply
After having been immunized with one of those
I waited twelve weeks to receive a second dose.
There is nothing to worry, you may feel a prick
but the injection is unlikely to make anyone sick.
To those who are undecided I would like to ask:
isn’t it about time we got rid of that mask?

Which brings me back to that question again: Why?

Not dismissing the existence of the virus, my belief is that we have been scared by the politicians and their expert advisers to such an extent that we are unable to decide what is the right course. Most of us have had two doses of one vaccine or another and have been told that we have been immunised up to 90% then that we can still be infected; to keep wearing the mask, to self isolate if pinged. forgetting the fact that not everybody has the app let alone a smartphone. Some object to vaccine passports as it would create… Read more »
