Letter to the editor: End daily covid case count
As America and the world strive to have life resume to “normal,” it is long overdue that the covid case numbers be removed from the Tribune-Review and the TribLIVE website. Seeing those numbers are reminiscent of the daily body counts during the Vietnam War — and if you recall, those numbers were demoralizing and divisive to America.
Having the daily covid numbers held in our face has been a questionable act during a time when unity has been necessary. If anything, the covid crisis has caused division in our great land.
It’s time to let it go and move forward. I challenge you to remove the daily covid count from your publications.
