Among the thousands of ways COVID 19 has altered our lives is the addition it has made to our collective vocabulary: spike protein; messenger RNA; pre-existing condition.
David has a pre-existing condition.
Whats more, in the months directly before the pandemic gripped the entire world, he started a treatment for his chronic disease which rendered his immune system significantly more susceptible to viral infection. When COVID hit, he and his husband went into hiding.
What happened next is a story about not only the pandemic, but the broader issues that have us as a society wondering so hard about the decisions our neighbours are making, and the impact those decisions might have on our collective future. It also has a lot to say about keeping rare spiders as domestic pets and Bill Gates' power to re-write our DNA.
