Áine Kenny: Even lying down was hard with Covid-19

"Many GPs are now telling anyone with a sniffle to stay at home. I implore you to follow this advice – you don't think it will happen to you until it does"

Áine Kenny: 'What frightens me about this is that there are many people who think "not detected" equals "negative" and they meet up with people'

I was hoping that 2021 would be better than 2020, but looking back, perhaps I was asking for too much. 

I tested positive for Covid-19 on January 2, but I spent New Year's Eve shivering in bed, listening to the sounds of fireworks banging outside my window, hoping that I would make it to the next week.
