HEALTHCARE FACE OFF: COVID vs CANCER

Healthcare challenges take everyone to the woodshed. Whether it’s you, a loved one, or even a stranger, a health challenge boils down to one thing: Do you want to get better? Do you? Some actions send a mixed message.

MASKED MEN AND WOMEN: WHO WORE IT BEST

Masked men and women send a message to all who see them: “I don’t plan on killing you,” is the message. “Don’t blame me if you get coronavirus,” is the mask subtext. What they aren’t saying:
