Love in the time of Coronavirus

Maybe… Maybe not… Maybe… But maybe not.

On balance, I think not. As I write this, 23 people in the UK have been diagnosed with the Coronavirus, or to give it its proper name, Covid-19.

By the time you read these words, it’s possible that it will have gone the way of previous news stories that have brought anxiety for a while, but proved less dramatic than anticipated. Anyone remember the Millennium Bug, for example? Or the scare that hundreds of thousands of people in the UK would be affected by Mad Cow Disease (or vCJD – which remains a horrific disease for the limited numbers who do contract it)?
