It looks like the Coronavirus variants are making a comeback. Today at work I got a company-wide email about the spread and what’s going on with it. I hate to see people getting sick again or for the first time.
I hope that it won’t mean a return to full-time mask-wearing but I fear it will. Let’s hope the numbers will go back down. There is too much going on in the world and we can only take so much.
Be careful and stay well.
India has been hit hard with COVID in the past few weeks. My heart goes out to my friends who are from there. It’s a bad situation there like it was in other places earlier in the pandemic. It’s a problem that impacts the world and needs a solid response. This situation requires more than prayers, it requires action. May the people there find hope and healing quickly. They need serious help so that things will not get worse.

Yesterday was my second Pfizer vaccine injection. I am not feeling any ill effects other than a sore arm where the injection site was. Today I woke up as normal and went to work. I feel for those who had it rough after their second shots. Let’s hope people continue to get the vaccine so things can be somewhat routine again. I won’t say normal because the last normal didn’t work. Be safe and well everyone.
Over 504,000 people have died in the United States due to COVID-19
Globally over 2.4 Million have lost their lives to COVID-19
In my home state of Tennessee, USA 11,133 souls have perished to COVID-19.
This fight isn’t over, prevention is the best tool. Wearing masks is needed to keep people from getting the virus. Vaccination will save lives so get yours when you get the chance.
Grace and peace and love to all who have lost their lives and to those who survive.
I had a second COVID test on Monday, December 28th and the results came back negative for the virus. As much as I am relieved, there are others who are struggling with it and many have died because of it. The Coronavirus is nothing to take lightly. I am still wearing my mask and social distancing. Right now you can’t be too careful for yourself and those around you.
Science and democracy win the day.
I believe in God and science and when science tells me that wearing a mask is the right thing to do I will love my neighbors as myself and wear a mask. It’s an easy thing to do to ensure the well being of all those around me during this time of the Coronavirus. I wish others would take heed to the science which can save lives.
Dear friends, the Coronavirus is still causing havoc in our communities and around the world. Be safe and wear your masks because it will save your life and the lives of others. Be well and take care good people.
