  3. People at my work are dropping like flies and it's not #COVID19. I had to share a meeting room all day yesterday for a workshop with people who were continually coughing.

    Plus there is now #ScarletFever reported at my 7 year old son''s school. I feel powerless to do anything about it and it's only a matter of time until me and my family is also sick.

    Anyone else feel the same?

    Oh and by the way happy #FollowBackFriday #FBPE #FBPA #RejoinEU #SingleMarket
