A Covid Odyssey: A Fictional COVID-19 Pandemic Story

Featured as part of the Pandemic Collection in the Museum of Health Care at Kingston. Written during the pandemic, about the pandemic.

 

A race against time to bring the cure for a deadly virus to a dying spouse.

 

Although the COVID-19 pandemic is ravaging the world, Dr. Mark Spencer's small town in Northern Ontario is largely unaffected other than being in lockdown and preparing for the potential onslaught. When his wife, Sarah – already attending a conference in Florida when the borders close – becomes deathly ill, she is admitted to a local hospital with minimal resources to treat Covid patients. As she spirals downward and with time running out, Mark concocts a plan to bring her an experimental anti-viral drug that might save her life. He must first, however, cross the Ontario/Michigan border and then travel 2000 km through a pandemic American landscape. Along his journey, he encounters a variety of unusual characters that bring into question the very foundation of his scientific beliefs.

Will Mark arrive at the hospital in time to save his wife? No matter what, Mark's life will be forever changed by his Covid Odyssey.
