Flue
People drop like flies. Everybody is getting the flue around me. I had just recovered around New Year from a miserable few days, Michelle had it around the same time but felt fully recovered by the beginning of this year. Now she got fever again and has to stay in bed.

It happens every year: The winter season gets into high gear and visitors from the North are importing an amazing virus cocktail. If we are immune against one, there will be another variety which will make it through the defense system.

So many people living on the island are down and can't show up for work that I would like to ask our visitors to have some patience right now. Service in restaurants and shops might be a little slow due to the fact that almost everyone is dramatically understaffed right now.
