[PJ] The last twelve months have been tough for everybody, but perhaps none more so than the people we’re supposed to trust to give us the facts about COVID-19. It can’t be easy, telling us as much of the truth as they think we can handle. If you’re anything like me — and let’s face it, you are whether you like it or not — you’ve been paying attention to what they’ve told you and you’ve done your best to heed their warnings. So you were probably confused when they told you this virus is less dangerous than the flu, and then a week later they told you it’s much more dangerous than the flu. You might’ve been taken aback when they strictly forbade you from wearing a mask, and then they turned right around and admonished you to wear a mask at all times. Or two masks, or three, or however many masks we’re supposed to wear now. The people who are supposed to know what’s going on clearly have no idea what’s going on, and that must be very stressful for them.We’re all tired. But now that more and more people are getting vaccinated, you might be feeling some hope. You might think there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. But what if it’s a train? Are you sure it’s not a train? Because it could be a train!
But don’t take it from me. Take it from someone who supposedly knows.
