@imafoal Bring back some foreign strains so they can spread those around too.
@nursefrombirth gonna be a mess I’m afraid. 😧
@nursefrombirth I am not surprised. I'm also pretty sure that the Seine was NOT ready for swimmers and that they covered that up, several swimmers have gotten sick. The shit they'll pull just to keep their plans going 🤮🤮🤮
@Liliki Pretty sad right??
@nursefrombirth what’s the ‘plan’ for when they return to their countries? 😐
