Major issues have dominated the news cycles for the last six months. The Trump Virus aka Covid-19 has been front and center and for good reason.

Testing for the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been in the news for several months now. The first reports of cases of what would become COVID-19 came on December 31, 2019.

Humans have five primary senses. They are touch, sight, hearing, smell, and taste. Have you ever imagined being without one of these senses? If you lost your sight, you wouldn't be able to enjoy any more sunsets. When you ventured out, you would feel a sense of insecurity, not able to see your surroundings. If you lost your hearing, you wouldn't be able to hear choirs sing or hear the birds sings or hear someone close by calling out for help.
