Around the World In A Day...

This post is not about the Jules Verne fantasy; however, checking news sources from the Associated Press and the BBC to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation-- one comes away with horror and doomsday scenarios. I refer to the countries of India and Brazil. While many of us in the US are lucky to  have been vaccinated, India and Brazil fell into complacent states that scream horror. No oxygen tanks for those fallen ill and fewer options for many who have no doctors. We, as a world community, must ask ourselves -- are we our brother's keeper?

While I will end my complaints about the former president of the US who called COVID-19 a Leftist hoax and advocated for quack remedies, I post this in the hopes that those of us who have been vaccinated will be kind to their neighbor, friend, or enemy. 

If you can do anything, take time out of your day for a moment of silence for those with no resources to combat a seemingly preventable pandemic.
