I keep getting emails from the coach company that I used to regularly travel with. They are tempting me with lovely short breaks for next year. I do so want to book one up, but of course I can't as I don't know whats going to happen next year.

If washing hands, wearing masks and avoiding other people protects us from this virus, presumably they will protect us from all viruses? So in theory, we need never catch another cold or flu, or anything else which is infectious.

I think we are all wondering the same.

If, and it is a big if , an effective vaccine has been developed by the winter we obviously will be in a much better situation, but there is also research going on into the possibility of using drugs already in existence to aid recovery from the virus.

I guess we can watch the progress of other countries ahead of us to see how they fare.

I've just finished tucking away the tail ends of my winter clothes and started wondering what life would be like when I get them out again. I can't see things returning to how they were Pre-Covid. Will social distancing become the norm and face masks compulsory? The small blessing in all this is that it didn't happen in the winter season when it would have been more difficult to get out. Hope things will improve this year before Winter arrives.
