Molly and the Corona virus

I cannot believe that it is so sunny and warm. Usually it is rainy at midsummer. Due to the Corona virus I haven’t been to the countryside for several months. Last weekend I needed to see my father and the dogs Molly (cutie) and Lady (sweetie). They are safe. I went for walks with sweetie. She cannot run since she then needs to have anti-inflammatory medicin. This is Molly´s first summer in the countryside and she really enjoys staying in the garden. She is very happy and she runs a lot. And I mean a lot. I went running with her a few kilometers and that was fun. Molly runs with a lot of grace.

We have now lived with the Corona virus for several months. I did the antibody test which was negative. I hoped for a positive result. When a crisis like this occurs you feel that you want to do something. I really wish that the government doesn´t waste money, and that they use this opportunity to collect as much information as possible. A well designed eg cohort study can provide a lot of useful information. We need to learn from this Corona virus because the probability is high that a new virus in a different shape will occur in the future. This was in Sydsvenskan in March Covid-19-pandemin hade kunnat undvikas – SYDSVENSKAN by Carl Bildt.

The virus doesn’t care about borders. And it has no passport.

Carl Bildt was Sweden’s foreign minister from 2006 to 2014 and Prime Minister from 1991 to 1994, when he negotiated Sweden’s EU accession. A renowned international diplomat, he served as EU Special Envoy to the Former Yugoslavia, High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina, UN Special Envoy to the Balkans, and Co-Chairman of the Dayton Peace Conference. He is Co-Chair of the European Council on Foreign Relations (from Project Syndicate).

Molly liked to stay in the sun and she wanted to have a dog selfie. I will see what I can share with you on Instagram. She now looks more like a Cocker. So happy that she likes to run, and maybe it is possible that she can see me in Stockholm.
