After the surge
By Sen. Art Haywood
The Covid-19 pandemic has rocked the pillars of our nation. We face challenges that threaten our health and economic well-being while our democracy struggles to respond to the immense suffering. Our society, culture and normal daily life has been turned upside down.
Across our nation, thousands have tragically died, and hundreds of thousands have gotten sick. The coronavirus has touched each of us personally. Social distancing has become the norm and our most formidable frontline defense. What we are doing, in separating from each other, is working.
