COVID-19 Pulls Back the Curtain on Who We Are

“Feb. 29, 2020: 1st death reported in United States.” OK, I’ll use that date as my start date.

Today is Day 87 of COVID-19 here in the U.S., and it is bringing out the best and the worst of Americans. Behold who we are!

On average, it appears that we are responding to COVID-19 with the same degree of care that we display when we A) drive our cars, B) take care of our bodies C) nurture the environment and D) fill our brains with TV shows. Why would we expect anything different?

    We are truly losing the war on morality. Society has shown time and time again that we are collectively selfish.
