    We’re slowly and surely achieving herd immunity with (1) people recovering from Covid and gaining natural immunity; (2) people getting Covid shots. By the fall 2021 everything will go back to normal.

    Probably a lot more we don’t know about in Britain and Ireland with still a very high death rate of people with or of the virus, and then a very restricted Covid funeral. May they rest in peace…

    Not sure why you have a picture of Dennis Askew, Director of Music at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. He passed away unexpectedly last week but it was not COVID related.
