2. Along with the reopening of the country, Nationally US economy is recovering from the worst phase, even the historically high inflation rate is a big pain for most of Americans.

3. With the keep declining of Covid positivity, hospitalization and death rate, experts expect to see by the middle of Feb what they predicated will be assured: most likely O variant will be the last mutated virus in the covid pandemic. "We can expect a beautiful spring by then."

 

4. People's reaction to Covid vaccination is so different.

But quite big fraction of pepole have been fighting for vaccination mandate. Since people are so different, government should offer the service to meet the demanding for different group of people.

5.看英國已經宣布可以全民摘口罩了，心想:英國人果然是我想的最富冒險精神的人群，要不哪來的那麽精彩的BBC紀錄大片，哪來那麽多人類曆史上的第一人呢。他們真是個多種性情混合起來的群體:可以很紳士，很幽默，又很勇敢， 不得不服。想到那些年看的英國影片，遠有--倫敦上空的鷹，海狼，近點的有-007, Mr. BEAN, 再近點的--唐頓莊園...

回複 'laopika' 的評論 : 我隻知道《多瑙河之波》這支圓舞曲，現在還能哼起旋律，不知道還有同名電影。：）從電影中看到的英國人是紳士，幽默，並富有冒險精神。曆史上的許多極限挑戰紀錄，也是英國人創造的，算是佐證吧。BBC的那些係列大片拍攝難度也是相當大的。我還能想起的有《地球脈動》《人類星球》， 其它的暫時想不起來了。：）

當年羅馬尼亞電影還有一部特別好看《多瑙河之波》，英國紳士精神還勇於探索，佩服！
