I feel fortunate as we head into 2021. Yes, last year was one of the worst years ever. But I have high hopes for this year as we start reacclimating and moving forward. Gary Kayye touches on this idea a little bit in his latest column. He has been very open about his participation in the Pfizer study in September — but if you don’t know, he was one of the very first to receive the vaccine. He thought it would be a good idea to write about his experience receiving both parts of the shot, whether it helps to dispel some of the rumors and fear around the vaccine or if it just makes you feel a little better to read about it before you receive it yourself. Either way, it’s a good read.
