Amie and Sara talk about how the world has changed and our personal stories since the pandemic started in March 2020. 

We discuss hotspots, our personal experience with schools and business shutting down, working from home, random supply shortages. We chat about anti-maskers and dealing with people whose comfort level is different than yours.

How has the pandemic affected children and how can schools safely reopen? If a vaccine is developed, who should get it first and why? What about growing evidence suggesting that Covid19 is airborne?
