I Never Saw It Coming - a photo on Flickriver

I Never Saw It Coming

            Last year on this day I was standing on what was once the old Virginia Turnpike looking down the road, envisioning the days when the road was full of horse drawn freight wagons waiting to cross the bridge just up the road at the river. It was a foggy morning, just right for capturing the moody shots I was hoping for.

Also, on this day last year, The World Health Organization (WHO) published their first Disease Outbreak News on the new virus. It was a  technical publication to the scientific and public health community as well as global media. It contained a risk assessment and advice about the Covid-19 virus.

It seemed insignificant at the time, but ended up changing the world as we know it. As I stood on that road on this early winter day wondering what was just around the bend, it never dawned on me what the future held in store.  It's safe to say, I never saw it coming.
