The idea of a meteorologist-type report/ update on major news sites or local stations is so needed! It would be the golden opportunity to provide snippets of education to viewers, thus promoting the science & legitimacy of real facts and thus countering the misinformation. This would possibly help to impact, in a positive way, the toll taken on our healthcare system. I’m forever hopeful!

Side comment: Does that mean the presenter, if female, has to wear, what seems to be the typical attire of a meteorologist, a tight dress with a low neck line to garner attention? No offense to the female meteorologists, who are smart women. It would seem that their attire is dictated from the station marketing dept.? Just sharing my observation & opinion.

My partner, age 81, was this weekend hospitalized with suspected pneumonia. It was soon after diagnosed as Metapneumovirus. This was identified with a nose swab. We have heard so much about Covid, flu and RSV, but this one is unique and really surprised us.
