I've been traveling throughout this pandemic and have 8 flights (connections a few times due to boi and cle travel) and im a little more sketched than usual. I wear a mask, don't eat or drink unless I am 6 feet away from others and wash hands and use the alcohol wipes before and after every flight. I've not had a problem yet, but all the news stories and anecdotes (none in my friend circle or family) are starting to worry me. Do you really think next week is going to be a covid spawning hell?

We have had about two dozen people we know get infected despite calling a low infection area home. They have ranged from 19 to 62 in age, about 1/2 have become symptomatic, 6 have died. Have beloved neighbors who aside fro. Grocery store haven’t left their house since March fighting the disease right now, one In hospital.

This scares the crap out of me without making me paranoid. We need those vaccines mandated and distributed to all ASAP even if there is a risk in rushing,

Just what is the manufacturing capacity of the planet if it focuses on one thing? We need to find out

So as we were the first to get hit with COVID in NY, we are seeing declines in numbers now. Travelers are cut short of their contract, our hours are getting cut, and staffs are laid off. Got a call yesterday from HR that now staffs need to file for unemployment to compensate for the lost hours. We risked our lives for this fight, now they are letting us go. Shit’s fucked.
