How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

This week,<strong> the pandemic continues to rage in the state where I live</strong>. Vaccinations have begun, but the rollout has become a brunt of jokes at the national level. There is a free-for-all for people over 65, and nothing for people under 65, unless they are designated health care workers.<strong> Still, this week, for the first time, I took a little breath of relief. A new President has been inaugurated, and he and his team are starting to make substantive changes</strong> in the way the country will handle the pandemic going forward. There are new challenges, vaccine supply and worrying new virus variants, and yet it now feels like we might have a fighting chance. I'm sure everything will continue to look worse for a while, but there is hope.<strong> After a long time, my family visited the university campus for a long walk with masks on and my daughter went for a bike ride there. It was a great change of pace for us all.</strong>
