There is this way by which I stay on top of the corona count in the state

A journalist friend of mine used to keep posting to her WA story a count summary.

Everyday. Without fail. Every single day.

This trumped visiting a website for me.

I was impressed. Both with the initiative on her part and the power of the medium.

I then pinged her one day. To convey my gratitude.

Turns out it was a mandatory directive from her organisation.

On her personal whatsapp number.

Aye, there’s the rub.
