[FRIAM] Pandemic Over!

[thompnickson2 at gmail.com]

Glen, 

If I am entirely honest, I would have to admit I don't know what's going on either.

I actually know of no person who has the disease.  I have known of people killed in car accidents, so I know they exist; ditto bicycle accidents.  But aside from the media, I have no knowledge of covid.  But I am a good citizen, so I believe. 

Dave, don't get started on me.

I didn't know that was afoot in AZ.   I understand having a with/without number, but mixing them willy-nilly into statistics is misleading of course.
