"We have repeatedly heard that the pandemic is over and, as Cohen said last week, “We’re in a much different and better place … We have vaccines, at-home tests, effective treatments, and we have common sense strategies like washing your hands and staying away from people when you are sick.” Not once did she utter the words “mask,” “aerosol,” or “ventilation,” which are the most effective strategies against Covid.

Update

Every hotel guest is sleeping out on sun loungers by the pool. I can’t sleep because it’s so uncomfortable and there are snoring men all around me. I want to poke them all. Also the peacocks keep screaming and I still have stomach cramps. So I’ve sort of given up. The hotel staff have given zero instructions other than don’t go in your room and have given out some water and blankets but not enough. But there have been no more tremors and the power - and even the Wi-Fi! - is still on. So we’re safe and can see what we’re doing #morocco #MoroccoEarthquake #HolidayGoneWrong
