The new cases here in the USA had surged all the way to 104,000. Last time was this high was way back at beginning of February. People have just stopped listening to the experts’ advice and instead got hooked on conspiracy incubators. There was a demonstration in our small town where very few parents protesting the face mask mandates by the school district officials. That was done because teachers and school employees demanded the mandate to protect them and also students. The demonstrators(about 10 of them) were accusing the school district of infringing on their rights. But the official did not relent. Back in the old country seems to me that the problems are mitigating fatigue by the citizens and the unstable political environment. Even Canada is showing an uptick. I’m telling you this scourge is not going anywhere soon. It will continue to mutate and reinfections could be on the hopper for all of us. Keep wearing face masks and keep a safe distance between yourself and the other guys.
