Default Thank you

To all those who have gotten their COVID-19 vaccines, thank you for being part of the solution to getting this country back to something approaching normalcy. My 90 year old father, who lives in eastern Iowa, got his first dose last week. His second dose is scheduled for March 10. I will breathe a big sigh of relief after March 10. I am under 65, so it may be another 4 months or so until I am eligible to be vaccinated. That day can't come soon enough.

Thank you to all the scientists who worked on the vaccines (and who will continue to work on refining the vaccines in the future), to the production teams at Pfizer and Moderna producing the vaccines, to the Fed Ex, UPS and logistics teams working on shipping the vaccine and to the teams administering the vaccines into people's arms. My hat is off to all of you.
