  COVAX initiative helps vaccinate the elderly in Peru

  COVAX is one of the organizations helping get vaccines to Peruvians. This story focuses on older adults in Lima, Peru receiving their vaccines and the prospect of reunification with family. The video shows several people waiting or receiving their COVID-19 vaccine shot, and encouraging other people to get vaccinated as well. The location is a school called Libertor Jose de San Martin. In Peru over 2 million people have contracted COVID-19 and 200,000 people have died. The pandemic is still in many ways an epidemic in this region of the world, and until we can control the disease globally, there's no hope for a true "return to normal."

  Golden Girls Pandemic Humor

  I shared this meme on my Facebook page on December 12, 2020. It uses a popular line from the character Sophia from the hit TV series The Golden Girls. In the show, Sophia would always start a humorous story about her life in Sicily with the phrase, "Picture it, Sicily 19xx..." I love that show and that character, so when I saw this meme I had to share it because I could picture myself doing this to my future grandkids. It made me laugh about a dark time, and think about life beyond the pandemic. Those of us who are lucky enough to survive it will definitely have one heck of a story to tell.

  "Diary of quarantine"

  This project explores the consequences of the global pandemic of Covid-19 in my private life. Fear, tranquillity, anxiety, relief...are some of many feelings that we have been experiencing during the self-isolation; as an artist, everything I created during this moment have ended up relating to the present situation as it is undeniably affecting many sides of my life. Therefore, I decided to create a body of work that "like a private diary" would register what in the future will only be a memory.
