Update from The House of Plague, Day 62
So, today we went to THE PARK!
We have been on plenty of walks - like I said previously, we live next to a nature reserve - but this was The PARK, in TOWN, and there were OTHER PEOPLE and OMG!
It was very lovely. There were ducklings and goslings in the duck pond (So cute! So fluffy!) and we walked all over (the flower gardens were rather neglected, presumably gardeners are not considered Key Workers), and it was all Rather Exciting.

Otherwise only two links, not related to the park at all. One from this morning:

And this one from a couple of weeks ago, but still very relevant. With many thanks to Kerk for sending me the link! When an anesthesiologist who is on the front lines of the Covid crisis in the U.S. is putting her life on the line every day, how can you possibly thank her? Well... if her favourite show is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, maybe you can get a few actors from the show to come say thanks to her?

This is my 5 yrs old great niece. She was fit & healthy until a mild bout of Covid19 5wks ago from which she appeared to recover.
She is now in ICU with a Kawasaki inflammatory response.
She is off the ventilator but has developed heart problems.1/#Marr #Ridge#COVID19 pic.twitter.com/AG9b7k4Sgn

This Kawasaki thing is very worrying. I am unconvinced by Gove's promise that opening schools is perfectly safe. He doesn't exactly have a track record of honesty and reliability.

She just sort of... disintegrated. Bless her.

*snort* Nice understatement. Why can't we have a government that cares about people? /rhetorical question
