“It is really frustrating, because all of this pain, suffering, loss and even the minimal lockdown measures that are implemented right now are all so avoidable if everyone just did the right thing — social distance, wear masks and everything like that. It’s incredibly frustrating for sure. I wish I knew the answer of how to fix people’s perspectives on this, because unfortunately, it seems like with most people, they’re not going to do anything unless they see it in person. I just hope it doesn’t get to that point. But I am very worried that after Thanksgiving we’re going to see things get quite a bit worse.” REUBEN HEMMER, HEMODIALYSIS TECHNICIAN, PHOTOGRAPHED OUTSIDE AT A ST. LOUIS DIALYSIS CLINIC ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 22 8
