SARS-CoV-2: All your questions answered–UPDATE

It seems that Sars-CoV-2 is the gift that keeps on giving. It’s interesting. When I was first discussing the true scientific impact of what was becoming a pandemic with my father, he looked at me and said something like, “This is going to change everything forever.” I thought he was being a little over dramatic. Silly me. I should have known, my father, who is really not the dramatic type, just fully grasped the social part of the situation while I was merely blinded by the science.

My minister approached me and asked me to do this thing sort of out of my comfort zone. I like being behind my computer and writing–or one on one with a patient. But also, when you’re called to use your gifts, you do it (Luke 12:48, Matt 25:14-30)–so I said yes. Below are questions we’ll discuss. I’ll make links available as I find we discuss topics, and will try to update the topics with more detail based on questions. But please be gracious–I do have a full time job and children :-).
