We are all teachers. The younger people are modeling our behaviour. The life we live is a testament to our character.

In rural California, the unvaccinated and ill overwhelm hospital staff – Los Angeles Times
It’s no mystery why this hospital in the Victor Valley is so hard hit: Only about half the population in this rural desert area of San Bernardino County is fully vaccinated, meaning they’ve received at least two doses, according to county data.
Many residents in the area also suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure, which increases their risk of developing severe COVID-19 and dying from it. The combination of unhealthy and unvaccinated is driving the surge.
Over the past week, 163 patients were crammed into the 148-bed hospital. About half of them were positive for COVID-19. Most were unvaccinated, according to hospital officials. The 24 ICU beds and 18 emergency room beds were mostly occupied by them too.

O gato em cima do muro
Observa o mundo
Põe-se a jeito, no parapeito
O espetáculo está prestes a começar
A vida é um carnaval
E o bicho não perde pitada
Deste desfile bestial
Com os humanos é tudo ou nada!
Riso, lágrimas, choro, gargalhadas
Murros, gritos, coices, pontapés
Silêncio
Um, dois, três
O gato engole em seco
E desfruta do show de uma só vez.
