This is unlikely to ever go away. In twenty years, I’ll tell my students about what it was like before the pandemic and they look at me in the same way they do when I say I grew up without a computer or the internet.

I can't allow myself to believe that. I have to believe it'll be like the flu eventually, where it becomes far less deadly and is mostly in the background of our lives. I have to, or it's too much.

I think it's safe to say my scheduled trip to Japan and South Korea with my wife this spring is very likely not happening due to the new covid variant. Oh well, someday we'll get there. Maybe.You wanna know what? You gotta problem with Luis Cessa, you gotta problem with me. And I suggest you let that one marinate

That, and misinformation.
I do see this eventually becoming like the flu with annual shots if you want it. I hope America becomes more like Asia with mask wearing in the winter just a normal thing. I don't hope that my daughter who started kindergarten in the 19-20 school year has to wear a mask her entire K-12 life.

We are making strides with that now, finally. I think the US has donated more doses than all other countries combined. It's the logistics of getting them to these deep, rural villages in the jungle or savanna - the proverbial last mile - that make things hard.

I don’t see myself ever not wearing a mask when I’m out and about. I’ll almost certainly not stop wearing them to teach. Simply not having a cold for almost two years is a “blessing” as a teacher, let alone not getting COVID.Bring tea for the Tillerman; Steak for the son; Wine for the woman
