My children have Covid-19.
That's not a sentence I thought I would write. My children have… tantrums, wrestling matches, too much chocolate, more screen time than recommended. That's what lockdown life in the pandemic has meant for us.
Our nanny last month tested positive for Covid a few days earlier with symptoms of fever, body aches and chills. Our house scrambled into action (out of our own social responsibility as the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA)-operated hospital that diagnosed her did not track nor trace us for further testing -- but that's a different story). We swabbed the adults who had contact with her to avoid putting our children through such an uncomfortable procedure.
