My husband was recently diagnosed with cancer and people in several support groups I follow are now no longer able to participate in trials. These are people whose last hope was a trial; it is absolutely going to kill people.

My area appears to have been hit with a paper towel shortage first. Attempted to get some at Costco today because we legit needed it, but they had none. Went to Lidl and they were running low, but was able to procure some.

My 70 year old dad is also in denial. Keeps saying it’s summer and always hot, but complaining about it lasting for 3-4 weeks this far and we’re only mid-July. Then said a week long below average streak would would help because that’s how you get average temps.
