It does mean "stylish" or "in the fashion", but the whole idea of a scoop of ice cream on top was my only thought.

The very first patient in the US to die of Covid-19 was a 57-year-old woman. We are a lot better at treating it now, but we're still losing 1,000 Americans to Covid-19 every day.

last year many conservatives were assuming COVID would mostly kill us off in the cities. Yet it's in Alaska and all across rural states everywhere.

covid to spread into urban areas that tend to be Democratic? But the virus turned out to be bipartisan and just as comfy down home on the range as among city slickers.

catching it. They have little kids. They don't wear masks around the office and probably not much when they are out of the office. Office has been shut down for a few days. Luckily, I moved my office home a year ago and got my second shot last week. A lot of trumpanzees in our multiple offices caught it. I have 0 sympathy. The best thing is they are all calling me to do their showings. Cha-ching!

Her poor Downs Syndrome son caught it too of course. Once one person in the house has it, it is pretty hard to keep the others from getting infected.

From the article:

"I then observed symptoms in my son Trig, who curiously is the most enthusiastic mask-wearer,


Getting covid is much more about who AROUND you is wearing masks, than whether you are wearing one yourself. What a mask does best is protect others (a more difficult concept for Republicans?)... so whether Trig got it has very little to do with whether or not he wore a mask, but probably has a whole lot to do with whether his infected siblings did. So no, there is nothing "curious" about it.
