A triple-vaccinated young man who’s spent the last two years talking down the dangers of this so-called superflu has retired to his home for the next week or so until he heads to Europe.
Speaking to The Advocate about the prospect of finally being allowed to go home to see family and friends, Danish national Aleksander Clausen told our reporter that it’s not that he’s afraid of getting the virus from a health perspective, it’s that he won’t be allowed on the plane if he tests positive.
“The ticket is non-refundable and my lease ends two days after I leave,” he said.
“If I get this thing, I’m literally fucked. I would be ruined,”
“So until I leave this godforsaken prison island, I am not leaving my apartment.”
The French Quarter man’s friends, however, are not so impressed.
One mate, Brad, reckons that Aleks needs to stop being ‘such a softcock’ and come to the pub.
“He’s been on this COVID isn’t real bus for months and now he’s wearing a hazmat suit in the shower. Typical Europeans. All bark, no bite!”
More to come.
