Is it me or does it seem like the recent Covid Delta “variant” is less a “variant” and more “the next wave of Corona that will keep us indoors for another year”? Does the thought of having to figure out what to make for your next meal YET AGAIN give you hives? Wait, is hives a symptom of the Delta variant??
