Not because of the vaccines cases were going down before that. Nothing shut down when the flu was buzzing around.

Despite the good news, there's still plenty of bad. New variants of the virus are creating worries about vaccine efficacy and case rates remain high.

Because of my superstitions, I won't ACTUALLY be going anywhere. (The one time this season I watched the game somewhere other than my home, we lost to the dang Raiders.) But, under normal circumstances, COVID wouldn't keep me from attending a Super Bowl Party! #RunItBackToBack
