    The U.S. just passed 1,000,000 COVID deaths.


    It just didn't have to be like this.
    I have learned recently of a bunch of people whose loved ones died from COVID, including the father of a friend who was at a gathering where indignant right wingers proclaimed loudly that they would fight the oppression of mask mandates. Sure enough, lots of folks at the gathering caught COVID, superspreader event, including friend's father who ultimately perished.
    More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

          Thank you Feral.

          I sneezed more yesterday than the total for all the sneezes in my life. I had to cancel all of my sales calls. Hope this goes away pretty soon.

                It's really hard to sell your antihistamine when you are stopping every 30 seconds to apologize for sneezing.

                  • My wife went out Wednesday for a social gathering after two years of isolation and got COVID. We were hoping we could avoid it, but both the boys and I got it too. I think three of us are past the worst, but our 4 year old just tested positive today. A little worried about him as he is not vaxxed and he is coming off a cold himself, so not sure how his immune system is at the moment.

                          Sorry to hear that. It seems like everyone I know has been getting it recently; fortunately it seems like most of the cases I’ve heard about locally are fairly mild all things considered. Hoping it’s the same for you and yours.
