And in Health

In Hong Kong it’s not uncommon to see people walking around in surgical masks as if they were in a budget sci-fi movie or punk band. Obviously it’s to keep the spread of infection down in a place where people are packed in heel to nose like sardines.

So it’s a good idea. But something you would never see in Canada (unless you were in a punk band or budget sci-fi movie). But anyway, half the office is sick.

Or at least my section is. We’ve all got it and we are all sick as animals. Sneezing, coughing and grumbling.

I wasn’t the first, so I can’t take all the blame, but I wasn’t the last to get it either, so I’m certainly not blameless. I hate being sick. Grumble.
