I could work from home, but it would be a lot more difficult and it'd be like running a circus amongst 5 other people whilst performing brain surgery Yeah, working from home certainly has it's challenges.

My colleagues and I have returned to the office. The safety measures include masks (1 mask per employee) and antiseptic (1 bottle), though no one, except the director, is wearing the former inside the office. For some reason, two of my colleagues think that I had COVID in February (2 months before the lockdown) and infected them. It was just a common cold as I was perfectly capable to do my job (tech support). I know several people who are certain they already had Covid19 because they had fever and a cough half a year ago, and they think they are immune now, throwing all precautions overboard. I told them that betting your on health on something you cannot be sure about at all is kind of silly and that they should get tested if they think they had it. But nope, they wont do that. I guess its a comfortable lie they want to keep telling themselves. Also, I know people who are going to Italy to spend their holidays there because they do that every year and they don't want some conspiracy ruin their travel plans/habits. I told them that I know people who died from it but they did the metaphorical ''fingers in the ear singing LALALA I CANT HEAR YOU''. Eh, another reminder why I like keeping to myself and being a loner. Most people are insufferably illogical and too weak to accept uncomfortable truths, leading to stupid life choices and problems I want to be far away from.

Infection rates are still climbing here in Austria, especially in my state (to be even more precise - exactly where I live). Several schools and kindergartens closed down. Also, I just watched the news where they announced that citizens are required to wear masks again wherever they go.
Well, that was predictable.

Uuuuugh six more weeks of lockdown here.
I'm meant to have my gallbladder removal tomorrow and I REALLY hope they go through with it this time, before all elective surgery is inevitably cancelled for the duration. (Long story, but I actually went to the hospital and got into the surgical gown before the cancelled it last week.)

I worry about my niece's kids going back to school this fall. Here in Anchorage, they are talking about a 2-day school week to start with and possibly extending it to 4-days, depending on how our situation develops. I won't blame her if she chooses to stick to online options. Covid-19 is spiking here despite our earlier progress.

A friend of mine, who had Covid19 a few months ago got it again a second time now. So the much speculated lack of immunity after an infection is confirmed. Re-infection or the virus staying in the body like aids / herpes / Epstein-Barr? Nobody knows, but thats bad news. Will this crap ever end....

Was a pretty disturbing article on Vox about re-infections, and that it meant herd immunity for COVID19 might not be possible. Scary stuff. Additionally this could also mean future vaccinations would be highly ineffective. Heck, if all this turns out to be the case, this could go on indefinitely? I wonder if people with covid 19 would then need treatments like people infected with aids, to stop the virus from going active again. I mean, if you have a mild case, good, but what if next time the virus goes active its a severe case? No reason to panic yet though, time will tell whats really going on.
