We're looking forward to a much better year in Mission Tx, hopefully without the covid-19 restrictions.

Covid cases are way up in the valley right now. I look for another season similar to last.

More people wearing masks at Alamo Walmart than one might expect, However, any national map showing infections highlights the RGV. I would hope that a combination of hygiene and vaccinations will prevail

We changed our plans this year. After 12 years in the RGV, we won't go back until a few things have improved.

I believe it will be much better than last year but not back to normal.

While cases are up (by a factor of 10 since a month & half ago), deaths and hospitalizations are not following the same trend (even allowing for a typical 2week lag in the pattern).

If the serious impacts stay low, it's unlikely there will be another major set of restrictions.

We all are but I’m worried about Delta.

Don't bet on it. At some point the shear number of infections will necessitate drastic measures again unless people wake up and get vaccinated. And even then, I am not sure that we haven't missed the golden opportunity to shut the virus down and the variants after Delta are going to require development of new vaccines to stop.
