Correction: at a glance, this does appear to be the same story in a different publication.


I was in a severe traffic collision in October 2019 spent most of the time in the hospital until about Apri After one of my right hand surgerys I woke up and I was in quarantine. Which was completely different than every other procedure that I had up until then. everyone was talking about some new virus and new rules to follow. the hospital emptied out the next few weeks nobody was allowed to congregate I saw maybe three nurses the entire time. My previous surgery was a manipulation and I was supposed to start physical therapy immediately after but it shut down the hospital and most services including PT OT so I had surgery pretty much for no reason I'll have to have it again.


This story sounds like beginning of Walking Dead just with different type of zombies out on streets.
