What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 215 & BENKYO RADIO 215.

Two more weeks until the Elections! To those of you who have already cast their ballot for Joe Biden & Kamala Harris, I thank you. To those of you who are about to do just that, remember that the fate of the United States rest on your shoulders. If you want to return to normalcy, to go back to our jobs, return to our way of life, we need a President who will listen to his scientists, giving them the green light they need to work on a vaccine with the entire international community, and not have a petty argument with other nations. We saw what this “Make America Great Again / America First” ideology has done to us. It has completely embarrassed our great nation. It vexed us. America must work with NATO partners and other nations around the world. Multilateralism is how Europeans get things done. There is a reason why Germany has a lower count of COVID-19. People understood the importance of wearing masks, social-distancing, always using hand-sanitizer. When you come home, you have to shower. If you’ve left a second time to go to the store, or work, then you have to shower a second time.

We can beat this virus. But when you have Trump having rallies with people still not wearing masks, that’s more events where people are catching COVID-19 and spreading it to other people.

Cherish the people you love. This virus is brutal. We must live with it until the vaccine arrives in 2021. If we can send little robots on an asteroid in outer space and collect samples, I’m pretty sure we can resolute the Coronavirus.

Wear a mask!

Until next time!
