What is not as well known(?) is that he was leasing some of the land for the Zorro Ranch eugenics operation from the state of New Mexico, and preventing officials from coming onto the property. I read about this in my local print agricultural newspaper:
State land officials wrote that a ranch hand was sent to escort them on and off the property for the visit, which seemed to raise concern.
“What is disconcerting is that a ranch escort is needed for personnel from this office to access cultural sites for general administrative fieldwork and/or educational uses,” the state officials wrote.
Earlier this week, Garcia Richard, the public lands commissioner, said she was blocked from reaching the state’s public trust land altogether, prompting her decision to advise attorneys to begin drafting the lease cancellation notices for the ranch. https://www.lcsun-news.com/story/news/local/new-mexico/2019/08/29/new-mexico-state-land-leased-jeffrey-epstein-sex-trafficking/2157796001/
You can also get live updates direct from the CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm#Comorbidities The "Intentional and unintentional injury, poisoning and other adverse events" count is now up to 5,133.
I agreed to act as faculty advisor to a student firearms organization at a public / state university, in a state that has its own constitutional equivalent of 2A.
Student was informed during new student org. advisory process that proposal would be rejected with no possibility for appeal.
Around the same time (coincidentally IMHO), our university's policy prohibiting campus carry was on the agenda at a faculty meeting. The policy includes a loophole for 'university designates' to receive permission to carry.
I inquired how one qualifies as a 'university designate' - and was informed that policy section has never been implemented.
As a public educator and firearms rights advocate, in a country with an estimated one firearm per capita, I cannot fathom this resistance to firearm literacy and constitutional carry.

The CDC reports the covid-attributed fatality rate and epidemic threshold in their weekly surveillance summary: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/covidview/index.html
They have previously defined the covid-19 epidemic threshold as 7.2% of deaths being attributed to covid-19. https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2020/s0404-covid19-surveillance-report.html
It is currently reported at 7.8% [first link]. This is what people are referring to when they say it is 'losing epidemic status'.
Same here, and I focus on maintaining a posture that dares someone to confront me: purposeful gait, shoulders back, chin up, big smile. I have yet to be confronted, but my line for when it happens is: Thank you for your concern, I have a preexisting health condition that makes mask-wearing unsafe. Please maintain a safe social distance from me.
Michael Dimino, a law professor at Widener Law Commonweath, likened Wolf’s order to what he called a “soft law” that conveys the idea that something is wrong but offers little in the way of punishment.
“The governor is trying to encourage people to behave in a certain way and he’s hoping the public will pressure each other to conform,” he said. “Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn’t.”

Vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus and human metapneumovirus; however, significant protection with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses, but also parainfluenza, RSV, and non-influenza virus coinfections.
Many public libraries offer e-books and audio books, databases of news / magazine articles, perhaps even some streaming media, and may be offering research help via email or live chat.
If your kids normally attend a F2F school, chances are the school library is also offering online resources.
Another pro-tip is to websearch for 'open educational resource' or OER with your topic keywords; opencourseware mentioned by u/Cantshadowbanthemall is an example of OER.
In Goolag, you can limit search results to any top-level domain with the site: command, so try [your topic] site:.edu to find results from educational institutions.
Also, lots of museums offering virtual tours.
