Surviving COVID-19 in '21
Were you glad to see the end of 2020? Covid-19 forced us to change our way of life. No more handshakes, hugs, or standing next to another person. Those of you who play basketball or are a fan of the sport may be familiar with the 3 feet defensive stance. Who would have thought that everyone in the world would take up the defensive position? Keeping with the basketball analogy, during 2021, we want everyone to take a defensive and offensive position. Offensive as in taking a position to score and win against Covid-19. We encourage everyone to continue the guidance from the Center for Disease Control. Here is our game plan for 2021:
