On this episode, I open with a historical story about the smallpox outbreak in New York in 1947 and how the vaccine rollout was effective and expeditious. I compare that to now, and how we as a nation are having a slow and messy start to our vaccine process. Then, I talk about the coronavirus situation in multiple states and the new covid-19 variant. After that, I report on the essence of the Georgia Senate Runoffs and why this will be one of the most critical elections in senate history. Furthermore, there is TJPS Special Report on a new CDC report indicating the brain-eating amoeba is spreading faster in the U.S because of climate change. Finally, the Last Note is about a former Republican Senator who is calling for a new political party, because Trump is the "ringmaster" of the Republican party.
