Well, we feared we would look like Europe, and now this may make us look worse.

And BE worse.  We need the vaccine.  Duh.

Governor of WV has already mandated all schools be virtual the week after Thanksgiving in anticipation of a Covid spike. He’s sort of an idiot but probably making a wise decision here.

This might be happening in most states though. Idk.

Most schools in Minnesota will be on full distance learning until at least the Christmas break. I know someone on the Duluth school board, and they will be out until at least Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I don't expect either athletics to start back up or schools even back in hybrid until at least then.

Getting back to the COVID discussion:

Possible glimmers of hope are emerging in the state's data. Both positives, percent positives, and active cases seem to have hit a peak early last week, and that things have been in some sort of uneasy steady state since.

Fantastic.
Optimism in pretending Thanksgiving isn't about to happen.

How could we possibly look worse?  
We're the best!
We have the best medical system in the world!
We have......4% of the population and 20% of the cases.
Wait, what?!
That can't be right...

I see a lot of optional travel here.

Yeah, it could.  You could be living in a state with a negligent parent, instead.

I left a State full of negligent parents. 

Do you really want the government to be your parent?

You could help reverse the wave from California to Arizona!! Do it! Move to LA.

France is WAY down, and her neighbors appear to have peaked and be trending down (not as fast as France).

A near full lock down with schools remaining open appears to be working in France.  SO, perhaps schools are not the/a major means of transmission.

Don't tell the teachers that.

The receptionist at physical therapy has plans to fly to Cleveland today or tomorrow.  She overheard me and the therapist talking about travel and how neither of us would get on a plane short of an emergency (the idea of a red eye is a good one).  She piped up and said "Y'all are scaring me now."

Our step son plans to visit for a month in a couple weeks from SF.  He has been working from home anyway, and I think he's a bit stir crazy.  I'm glad he's coming, and not glad at the same time.
