A must-see broadcast

Still need to be convinced to wear a mask and social distance? Watch Kevin Kim’s (KHQ) report from the Sacred Heart lab that was broadcast on June 26. It will convince you. There is a link on their website.

Everybody needs to see this, especially if you are on the fence about masks and social distancing. It’s exactly like the health experts tell us. They know what they are talking about and they really are smarter than the average bear. Listen to the experts, watch Kevin and be responsible in public. We can turn this awful thing around. Great job Kevin!
