i never thought i'd need to be tested for novel coronavirus, especially with all the precautions i take, but there i was in a shanghai health clinic waiting for my results.
that was after a long flight back from auckland, new zealand, not a high-risk area itself, but now unreachable by direct flight. that meant i had to transit in tokyo, japan.
after returning to shanghai's pudong airport and being sent to a community health center, there was lots of time to think.
it was a long, tiring process, and i've been left in a complete state of awe at the hard work those on the front line are doing to stop the second wave of covid-19 getting hold in china.
