All my neighbours had ordered goggles to my house before we had any other ppe at work. We had a bathtub full. Every day I’d lay them out and carry some up and distribute - to porters, nurses, anyone I would see in the hallways, filled with fear. The community pulled together when others failed us

We are in many ways actively behaving worse - real flu vaccination campaigns no longer happen in hospitals, vaccination rates are down, disinformation rising, selective memory, etc etc

The worst thing?We as a society have not learned anything. As institutions we would not be any better prepared this time round. We still don’t talk about how to prevent airborne infections, we still talk things down rather than being open. all this loss and trauma has not made us learn a thing

Too long, webinars from Italy, ward rounds where you knew next day the patients would no longer be there and others would fill their place, colleagues becoming unwell, some never recovered, delayed vaccine as “surgeons don’t see patients”, the endless streams of arterial blood clots thanks to covid

the new s bahn station in munich, build with small footprint at depth brings so many challenges i never considered - pressure from ground water etc. parts are build with pressurised air meaning builders have to acclimatise just like deep sea divers. fascinating
