I am angry. I am angry that governments that repeatedly fail to listen to public health experts and exploit images of health workers as political props are making decisions that cause direct harm. /1
I am sad. I am sad for the families that could not gather, for the people who experienced the heart-wrenching loneliness that this winter has brought. I am sad that the government took these days off when every day makes a difference. /2
I am disappointed. I really wanted to give the government the benefit of the doubt. I know now is a difficult time with many difficult decisions. But if my local drug store can be open Christmas Day from 9-6 why can't we be vaccinating people? /3
