COVID cases at colleges fuel top US outbreak rates, tracker shows

 

I think its safe to say that this year has eclipsed 9/11 in terms of impact on Americans. 9/11 was brutal in a number of ways, it seemed to come out of nowhere, shattering the idea that the US was safe from that sort of thing and it was very public. And it initiated a war we are still fighting almost 20 years later - more US killed in "defense" of 9/11 than in the act itself.
That said, life for the average American wasn't disrupted that much, unlike COVID-19.

 

Good point. Plus, for a big chunk of Americans, 9/11 had an companion, Pearl Harbor. COVID-19 was unlike anything any of us had experienced.

 

What change have we made in our daily lives outside of airport travel (excluding military)?

DeWine. DeSantis. DeKemp. DeThreeStooges?

 

Let’s put this myth to bed, shall we?
