How I regret I didn’t major in science
As my career, for money and humanity
So that I could save the world with conscience
And knowledge and skill from mortality
Now I can’t even secure myself from the stake
Fifty years of life seem to be a grave mistake
Is cure and vaccine so hard t come by?
If I were there,could I make any difference
To stop the plague that make so many die
But, at present, arts is the resort for defence

GOOD EVENING AROBOT - Angela & I are both *Scientists* so we found the subject of your Poem very interesting ! To be a PHYIOTHERAPIST I have studied Human Anatomy & Physiology - Brian is an Organic Chemist. The Scientists who are developing the CORVID 19 Vaccines are Biochemists & Viroologists. A Vaccine works by training the bodies immune system to recognise and combat PATHOGENS like COVID 19. ANTIGENS can be synthesised from molecules present in COVID 19. When ANTIGENS are injected into the Patient - their immune systen recognises them and uses them to attack & imobolise the Pathogen (COVID 19). Virologists are working to develop a VACCINE but like all Scientific Research it takes time.
Whatever our Academic Discipline we all have a part to play in Society during this frustrating period of Lockdown. I (31) am working @ the Hospital in the Physio Clinic (not with CORVID 19 Patients) and Brian (36) who is on furlough from College is involved with the Food Bank and in delivering Groceries to the over 70s. We can all do our bit - but we all need to exercise Patience.
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛
Arts are so valuable in this time of isolation. There will be a cure in time but we must all be patient.
