Three times as many more people in the Dr. seuss green eggs and ham boat shirt and by the same token and United States are dying each day compared to three months ago, and the number of new cases is six times what it was then. Coronavirus is now the leading cause of death in the United States. We are a country that is poor and sick. We all need to hold on for a few more months. I know this Christmas is particularly hard and lonely for all of us. Though it’s not nearly as hard for most of the people who will read this as it is for the one in five children who don’t have enough to eat this holiday season or for the two Americans currently dying of COVID-19 every minute or for the 310,000 Americans who won’t celebrate this Christmas because they’re dead.  Usually, my husband and I take our teenage children to Southern California to see my dad and stepmom for Christmas, but not this year. This year we’ll stay home. We’ll stay home because we want to protect my parents and we’ll stay home because we don’t want to take our chances with the virus. It’s extremely sad, because holidays are wonderful and I still haven’t met my first (and only) niece. But I know my family is doing the right thing. If we had a functioning federal government, they would order us to stay home, but right now we have a malignant emptiness instead of an executive branch.

The Pfizer vaccine arrived the Dr. seuss green eggs and ham boat shirt and by the same token and same week that we crossed the devastating 310,000 deaths milestone. The vaccines are a crack of light in the darkness. As I write this, a second coronavirus vaccine has been given emergency approval by the FDA. In just ten months we’ve gone from pandemic to vaccine with the kind of speed that most people thought was impossible. They are vaccinating people on television. This week Vice President Mike Pence, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Fox “News” owner (and serial disinformation spreader) Rupert Murdoch, and actor Ian McKellen got their first doses of the two-dose vaccine inoculation. The end is coming, but it’s not here. It’s December, and Americans are fatigued by the pandemic. We’ve watched all the television we can possibly binge, and the initial coziness of pandemic living (baking bread! learning how to crochet! living in sweat pants!) has morphed into crushing boredom and constant terror about the scale of the catastrophe.
