Maryland didn’t learn its lesson last year. Hell, from any time at any point during the COVID 2-year marathon. Therein lies the problem. Like so many things in life, people want to do sprints. No one wants to do a marathon. They just don’t have the patience for it. “I want what I want when I want it” is the mantra of every day.

The darker the blue, the higher the rates.

The higher numbers along the VA border are from northern VA and the DC metro area. MD has 23 counties. My county comes in at #12. We’re out towards the beaches in Dec so there are no tourists to blame this on. To the woman who had a problem with me being the only one in the restaurant wearing a mask.

Fuck you.
