I see you have created a nice allegorical story for Astrazeneca and COVID 19 to appear and get to know each other. People sure do love to court danger. Great job with this.

You have an interesting premise here and it entices laughter. However, you have some issues with the proper words to use. Perhaps English isn't your first language? Below are some examples. I hope you find them useful. Corrections are in brackets.

1. "she needs to take one last dive and then retrieve(retreat) to that deserted bar"
2. "to take refugee to(at) that lonely bar"
3. "Let's tastetest) my theory."
4. "The moment C stand(stood) up,"
5. "How come that they" (Why) are...
6. "lie about the blood clogs(clots)."

Ah, it's a symbolic story! Covid and Astra-Zeneca meet but they are women instead. I hope we all will be protected and can enjoy gatherings and you can enjoy the ocean again! Best wishes in the contest!

I really liked: "let herself be bewitched by the music of the waves. "

Word change suggestions:
retrieve to that deserted bar (retreat)
"No, I would love too (to)
"Let's taste my theory. (test)
everybody dissipated." (dispersed)
blood clogs." (clots)

    No, don't say that. I don't know if I can ever be published. I see the kind of work that people are looking for and I don't write that kind of stuff. Like you told me before -- let's just have fun!

Okay, This is a good effort and I can see the beginnings of a solid story here. The issues to work on is proper word choice and better dialogue. I would advise reading this to someone or out loud. That may help you find the problem spots and making editing easier.

and then {retrieve} to that deserted bar by the edge of the water.

- I would reconsider this word here.

A clever write, albeit quite chilling as the virus is spreading like wildfire and now we know why after reading your story. A fearful and dreaded meeting here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Good imagination to come out with C and A. I enjoy the story. You are good in telling the story and slowly reviews what is C and what is A and why one attracts and the other drives people away.

Great work... Good luck to your contest.
