Today's Opinions

Fri Mar 15 2024

 

We're betting most of you think the COVID pandemic is over. And why wouldn't you. The government has moved on. The Centers for Disease Control has basically given up. God forbid people still wear a mask or stay home when they're stick, right?

The truth is that people around the world are still very much dealing with COVID, specifically long COVID. Today we offer you a column from a person living with long COVID.

"It's difficult to have faith while navigating an illness without a cure. People say don't lose hope, but I don't know all the damage that COVID has done to my body. It's hard for me to stay positive with so many unknowns.

Millions of us who are suffering eagerly await progress in research and therapies. At least 65 million people are living with long COVID worldwide, including  16 million working-age Americans. I want to encourage all the scientists, researchers, elected leaders and everybody working toward a treatment for long COVID to keep at it, because we need the treatment now." - Rachel Beale

It's not hard to see that District Attorney Fani Willis hurt her own case in Georgia against Donald Trump, even if she picked up a personal win.

Special Counsel Robert Hur appears before the House Judiciary Committee on March 12, 2024 about his report on President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents.
 

Hur testimony shows sad state of Biden vs. Trump presidential race

Special counsel Robert Hur kept coming back to the reasons why he didn't charge Biden: the president's poor memory and how he'd appear before a jury.

Participants hold signs in support of TikTok outside the U.S. Capitol Building on March 13, 2024 in Washington, DC.
 

Congress wants to ban TikTok. Now do Meta.

It would behoove Congress to focus on actual issues. Instead they want to pick apart an app they don't know how to use and don't want to learn about.
