Thanks so much, TH, for your concern and kind words for my daughter. We are isolating here and being extremely careful. My love to you and Karen - I'm thinking of both of you, and if one thing is sure I know you're looking out for her.

Thank you very much, Lisna. She's sleeping again now after a rough morning with fever, increased pain and coughing. Thanks for your kind wishes for her - I really appreciate it. Hope you're taking good care of yourself as well.

Thanks, OH - really appreciate it. I know you're extremely careful protecting yourself against the virus and I'm very glad for that.

Sorry to hear that, hope she gets better.

2020 turning out to be deadliest year ever in U.S., mainly due to COVID-19

That would mark the largest single-year percentage leap since 1918, when tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers died in World War I and hundreds of thousands of Americans died in a flu pandemic. Deaths rose 46% that year compared with 1917.

In 2018 1918 was footnote. Now it’s like a goddamn crazy af horrifying chapter.

How is this even a story? Anyone could have guessed that, unfortunately. You guys are losing as they say a 9/11's worth of people every single day, you're on track to have had half a million deaths by early next year, and there are people literally dying from hunger and poverty, but not just homeless people anymore.
