So here we are, another day into the COVID-19 pandemic but not knowing much more than we have for the past few months. The WHO put out a statement about asymptomatic carriers – then later retracted it. About all we know the U.S. is about to go over the 2 million confirmed case mark, which […]

The new normal – what is it? That’s the question everyone is asking as governments continue to relax distancing and workplace rules that have kept most people at home for three months. The one thing most people agree on is the future will not be what we were used to before March. What we don’t […]
