Welcome Hivers to this new post, today I come to share with you my reflections of Covid. This initiative begins with the purpose of supporting @jauregui98, who is a colleague from here in the hive, who is going through a bad time with this disease.
Bienvenidos Hivers a este nuevo post, el día de hoy vengo a compartir con ustedes mis reflexiones del Covid. Esta iniciativa comienza con la finalidad de apoyar a @jauregui98, quien es un compañero de aquí de la colmena, que está pasando un mal momento con esta enfermedad.
I remember clearly when the news of Covid 19 started to come out, I remember that we laughed at the university: "It is a global pandemic, and Venezuela does not qualify for the world cup" we said, the memes were not lacking. Of course, we already had an economic and political crisis (which still continues), the only thing we were missing was the Covid.
Recuerdo claramente cuando empezaron a salir las noticias del Covid 19, recuerdo que nos reíamos en la universidad: “Es una pandemia mundial, y Venezuela no clasifica al mundial” decíamos, los memes no faltaban. Claro, ya teníamos una crisis económica y política (que todavía no cesa), lo único que nos faltaba era el Covid.
That same week, classes were suspended, I was thinking of graduating last year, since I only had one semester left, the quarantine arrived on March 13th of last year. My dad's first birthday, then mine in April, my two younger brothers and my mom's, we spent them in quarantine.
Esa misma semana, las clases fueron suspendidas, pensaba graduarme el año pasado, ya que solo me faltaba un semestre, la cuarentena llegó el 13 de marzo del año pasado. El primer cumpleaños de mi papá, seguidamente el mío en abril, de mis dos hermanos menores y mi mamá, los pasamos en cuarentena.
We take care of ourselves in my family, we continue to do so, because we have contact with elderly people, my grandmother and some neighbors, who are alone, we visit them here in the building and bring them food. During the last year one of those neighbors died, she lived up to her name, she was a very sweet lady.
Nos cuidamos en mi familia, seguimos haciéndolo, porque tenemos contacto con personas mayores, mi abuela y algunos vecinos, que están solos los visitamos aquí en el edificio y les llevamos comida. Durante el año pasado murió una de esas vecinas, ella hacía honor a su nombre, era una señora muy dulce.
We don't know what happened to her, maybe her age played against her, her blood pressure dropped during the morning and by noon she had passed away. I thank God that I knew her, but I am even more thankful that she did not suffer and went peacefully. The year passed and we thought everything would be better, but the new vines arrived.
No sabemos que le dio a lo mejor su edad le jugó en contra, su tensión se le bajó durante la mañana y ya para el mediodía había fallecido. Doy gracias a Dios de haberla conocido, pero doy muchas más gracias porque no haya sufrido y se haya ido en paz. El año pasó y creímos que todo estaría mejor, pero llegaron las nuevas cepas.
This same month I received another piece of news, another lady I knew passed away from Covid. I had not seen her since last year, since the quarantine was decreed. I didn't even know she had gotten sick. Nobody said anything, until she was no longer there. I think that is the worst thing, not knowing if when everything returns to "normal" you will see them all.
Este mismo mes recibí otra noticia, otra señora que conocía falleció de Covid. No la veía desde el año pasado, desde que decretaron la cuarentena. Ni siquiera sabía que se había enfermado. Nadie dijo nada, hasta que ya no estuvo. Creo que es lo peor, no saber si cuando todo vuelva a una “normalidad” los verás a todos.
Venezuela is not like in other countries, where you can get medicine fast or you can be seen in minutes in an emergency. Here in Venezuela getting sick is a luxury, since before the pandemic, so with economic crisis looking for what to eat, we are in quarantine. Risking going out to work or shopping, because there is no other way. But if you are going out, please take care of yourself.
Venezuela no es como en otros países, donde pueden conseguir los medicamentos rápido o que pueden atenderte en minutos por emergencia. Aquí en Venezuela enfermarse es un lujo, desde antes de la pandemia, así que con crisis económica buscando qué comer, estamos en cuarentena. Arriesgándonos a salir a trabajar o comprar, porque no queda de otra. Pero si vas a salir, por favor cuídate.
I am not telling you not to go out, because the situation makes us obstinate to be locked up (I know, it also happens to me and I almost never left my house before the pandemic) and we have to find a way to eat, but if you go out, take care of yourself and take care of your loved ones. Use a mask, wash your hands, take a bath, wash your clothes if you have contact with a lot of people. Everyone wants to see you well.
No te digo que no salgas, porque ya la situación nos obstina estar encerrados (lo sé, también me pasa y no salía casi de mi casa antes de la pandemia) y hay que buscar cómo comer, pero si sales, cuídate y cuida a los tuyos. Usa el tapabocas, lávate las manos, báñate, pon a lavar tu ropa si tienes contacto con mucha gente. Todos quieren verte bien.
Realmente espero que el Covid pase, pero no va a pasar si no colaboramos. Los que están enfermos les deseo una pronta recuperación y no duden que estamos para ayudarlos si lo necesitan, aunque sea con unas palabras. Temo que ahora no puedo hacer más que eso. Nos leemos en mi próximo post y cuídense.
I really hope that Covid will pass, but it is not going to pass if we do not collaborate. Those who are sick, I wish you a speedy recovery and don't doubt that we are here to help you if you need it, even if it's just a few words. I'm afraid I can't do more than that now. See you in my next post and take care.
