My mate works in A&E and he reckons they see at least 20-30 people each day with Covid. Nothing really wrong with them, apart from a cough and sore throat, they probably do feel like

One of my colleagues is a proper Covid-denier, she was off sick two weeks ago, but "popped in" to work on her way to her GP. It was obvious what she had, she was coughing her guts up, and was struggling to stand up for long as she was so weak. When we told her to go home and take a test, she replied "Oh for god's sake, there are other things going around apart from Covid you know". Guess who (finally) tested positive, two days later? Along with me and two other colleagues, a few days later
