probably a better topic for another thread, but I've found that when in Mexico, it's sometimes better to stay near the resort area

I haven't and wouldn't do an all inclusive resort, cause I like to go out and hang at the local places for food and drink.  But, those places are usually in or near the resort areas.
Agreed. If it's someplace that I'm not sure is a safe place to actually go and walk around, then I'm just not going to go, rather than go to some sanitized version of it.

Good news. My ex and her family wised up and so they canceled their large Christmas party this weekend. So I get to keep the kids straight through until actual Christmas morning and the kids get to avoid a superspreader event.

The bad news: Deaths in MN are making their hard run following the surge in confirmed cases, as expected.

Better news: When normalized per capita, MN death rates are still less than half of what is burning through Iowa and the Dakotas. Also, everyone stayed home over Thanksgiving. The dreaded surge has officially failed to materialize.

You and I both know that. Yet, my acquaintances have gone back to loudly proclaiming that Kristi Noem is God's gift to governance.

that's great news
I also got great news from my youngest daughter today.  Not only did she graduate from UNL, she got a job in her field of study working for the state of Nebraska.  Decent pay and great benefits.

Had my last session of physical therapy today with the wife, the therapist told me, when asked, that elective surgery has NOT been cancelled.  She heard it was going to be here, they are part of one of the four major hospital chains in the area.  She said apparently they are holding their own even with this rise in the state.  The metro area has been hit less hard in most parts than some rural counties.  The rise in new cases has not yet resulted in a scary rise in hospitalizations to near the critical point, which of course indicates the new cases are younger on average, I think.

Been hearing about it here. Hoag (one of the major hospital groups near me) has stopped elective surgeries.

Our regional ICU capacity is at 0% now. 

It's ugly.
