To get us through

Tue., Dec. 15, 2020

I acclaim Allegra and Russell VanderWilde’s doctor’s compassionate constructive message (“Take care of each other,” Dec. 6).

COVID-19 is an undeniable world pandemic. Mixing politics and misinformation is reprehensible at all levels. Unless we retreat into an impenetrable bubble, social responsibility is inescapable. Following real science and compassion for self and the most vulnerable among us will get us out of peril.

Thanks and appreciation to everyone who follows the required guidelines.
