The latest news is that the infection is expected to peak here in Scotland in two to three weeks, and that we should expect that the stay-at-home restrictions will continue for 13 weeks.
Like a marathon, I'm not thinking about the whole duration. I'm just focusing on each week as it comes.
And as this week has come to a finish, it is striking how long it seems. It seems like a long time ago when the restrictions on movement were made, though it was only Monday. Life seems to have slowed down, and this in some ways in pleasant.
I also have this sense that as long as I stay home I will not get sick. So, it's not quite as tedious as might be imagined.
Also, of course, we have access to a lot in our online world. Imagine if the pandemic had struck in the pre-internet world.
