Yeah, I think that was Trump's feckless rally in Tulsa.

It gets hard to keep track of the nightmares that year

I lost a student to it along with several colleagues and parents. It sucked.

To be clear, not my parents, parents of students at my school. Still though.

We lost our two best friends and I'm pretty sure I got sick from my students and I've never entirely recovered

I'm sorry. Oddly enough another teacher gave it to me, and it was the least sick I've ever been. Had a nagging cough for two days. The variation in effects was just wild.

Losing our friends was a catastrophe on several levels, since we were also rented from them on massively favorable terms. The oldest son sold the townhouse and it was far more than I could swing on my GI loan. My family is still deeply angry over this whole thing. It was a cascade nightmare

Holy crap. That's awful being dislocated in the midst of that chaos. It really was a disastrous time. I remember thinking in early 2020 as I saw it coming that the world would never be the same. I had no idea just how true that was going to be.

Definitely, yeah

Also had significant 2nd and 3rd order spreading from some reporting at the time. The news stories were grim
