FOR MOST OF US COVID WAS A BAD DREAM; quarantines, social distancing and N-95 masks—like Donald Trump’s presidency—something best forgotten. The reality is that Delta, Alpha and Omicron are still here. They're killing about 100 Americans a day. To make matters worse, Donnie Boy is trying to get the band back together.
Connie and I got our Moderna Covid boosters this morning, shot number six for those who are counting. There is no guarantee we won’t contract the XBB.1.5 variant or one of its ilk—we just hope it changes the odds in our favor.
As for Trump, I'll just stick my head in the sand and trust in the intelligence of the American electorate. And the courts, of course.
