Blind trust? Nonsense.

You know I write few letters to the editor, and you know that I read your paper carefully, but the long piece, How to Vaccinate a Rural County? It Starts With Trust, insulted my sense of value to the extent I thought I’d lend my hand to the two hours writing this might take. Nonsense.

Jefferson County, just how badly was it hit by COVID? All that production, all that energy, all that closing down, and now all this emphasis upon vaccinating the population—in the long haul will it prove beneficial, let alone necessary?

You haven’t convinced me, Pam Hanna, Eva Kerr or Christina Binkowski. In either the Boulder Monitor or the Whitehall Ledger last year I read a report stating that in 2017, the year I moved to Jefferson County, nine people died from flu.
