Picture

I live in Des Moines, Iowa. We have never had an official state lockdown. Our state is currently one of the highest numbers of positive cases out of all of America. This photograph shows one of the drive through testing areas we have. Iowa still does not have a mandatory mask law/mandate. Our numbers are still rising. However, if you visited here you almost would not know it. It is almost as if life has gone on the same way.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
