One Pharmacist’s View

We have had several Pandemics over the past 100 years or so. Some of them as scary as this Covid virus. The worse in our times was back 1918, the flu. The scariest one of my own time was the old infectious Polio. This virus, like COVID could kill you— quick. And It very often caused paralysis in the surviving victim’s leg or other extremities. When I was a kid back in the 1940’s I was often warned about Polio, but I had little fear of it. Like everyone else, I had other things on my mind. I was busy.
