Hey Everyone, I was reading stories about vaccinated people who are concerned about the newly implemented measures to combat this wave of the virus. I understand your frustration, this has been a very long year. However, these measures are meant to help combat this virus and save lives while we work on ending this pandemic. Together we have come far, facing adversity after adversity and triumphing. I know that many are frustrated with these new measures but we cannot lose hope. We are nearing the end of this adversity but we must continue together. Please find solace in the fact that these restrictions are saving lives and each of you who follow these mandates are helping to save those lives, you are heroes. Don't lose hope with one another as we have done so much good together this last year. Soon we will return to a healthier society once we have healed it. Together through adversity we will triumph, stand together and never lose hope. Stay Safe, Stay Sanitized and Stay Supportive, John Ames Birch @johneames2
