I just returned from a cross-country trek with my wife and son, and I am happy to report that in much of the country, COVID-19 is over and only freaky liberals wear masks.
Fun! Seriously: It was often just the three of us wearing masks in many of the places we stopped. Meanwhile, my phone was blowing up with variations of the headline “COVID-19 Delta variant bad news!” In Minnesota, we drove by a billboard with a photo of a doctor and a message that was not reassuring: “The COVID-19 vaccine will not alter your DNA in any way.” It’s not that I was hoping the vaccine would jazz up my DNA.
It’s just not reassuring that there are so many people who believe such a thing that such a billboard exists. Billboards are not cheap!
