Fundraising for Ukraine
This is an Instagram post by maniteeshirts. This post is about people fundraising for Ukraine since they have been hit hard by the Russian invasion. Noticeably, all of the people posted in this picture are all wearing masks. This picture helps show that where some places might not require masks, some people are still wearing them. Due to not being given a location, I am not sure on the status on masks where this was posted. Since everyone is wearing them though, I am at least guessing it is a store that requires masks to enter. -

Road Trip to Mexican Wine Country During a Pandemic
The news article references Mexico's crumbling tourist economy due tot he COVID pandemic. As a close neighbor of Baja California, Mexico living in San Diego I was able to see the changes first hand by visiting Mexico throughout the summer. As travel was limited all around the world, having family members living in Mexico allowed me to first hand experience how the pandemic had affected a region who's economy is dependent on tourism dollars. I witness wineries, restaurants, and hotels desperate for business but who had installed very modern safeguards similar to what the United States was doing to combat the pandemic. Masks and social distancing were enforced at all locations around the Valle de Guadalupe, near Ensenada. In some cases, added steps such as mandatory shoe and hand washing was installed prior to be allowed onto the premises. Overall it was a nice weekend and my family was able to forget the pandemic that surrounded us if for a brief while. -
