Sunday was expected to be the busiest travel day in America. They don't have final numbers yet but they reported about 1,071,000 people traveled on the day before Thanksgiving. It was less than half the numbers of airline travels on the same day last year. The travel officials expected more American would be driving around this time. So overall fewer people were expected to travel during the pandemic but not by a lot as last year. That reflects a significant part of the population that said the pandemic would not affect their Thanksgiving plans even It did to many other Americans.

Observers say that the pandemic is part of the reason why an estimated 50 million Americans won’t have enough…

Todays CNN1o talked about how stores on black Friday’s are shutting down because of Covid 19. They talked about how countries are finding a new vaccine for covid 19. Also how vaccines work and in china they use a QR code that tracks them everywhere they go. Also in China and Japan they get information about Covid 19 then they send the information to doctors and hospitals for their own judgement. In the oldest city in the United States people found a ship wreck on shore.

November 24, 2020:

Progress with the Covid vaccine seems to be moving much faster than estimated. One drug manufacturing company, Astra Zeneca, has already developed a vaccine. This vaccine replicates Corona virus' attacking property. Only these attackers target the virus. Because we are the only ones in the world who have this secret recipe, we need to distribute it across the entire globe. Also, there is a priority list depending on the person's position, occupation, age, and condition. This process will take many months, but it will all soon be over.

I am more excited than ever. Even though we are still months away from the end, it still feels like it is right around the corner. I believe th…

The CEO of Walmart was closing down on thanksgiving because of the coronavirus issues, and along the other stores closed their shop. They opened before thanksgiving is because they wanted to get a head start for black Friday. Critics have said that the employees should be allowed to stay home and enjoy time with their family. When they were forced down to close on thanksgiving, they didn’t want to shut down on black Friday. While clothes, jewelries, and electronics shops have been shut down, the other groceries stores were allowed to stay open because they were essential. Macy didn’t want to be forced to be closed so they showed the government their ideas to stop spreading coronavirus.

Scientists around the…
