My mom just told me not to buy a plane ticket for December anytime soon - covid cases are so bad back there, they're putting mask mandates in effect again even in places that didn't have them before, and they're at crisis levels again in the hospitals, etc. because so many people refuse to get vaccinated and/or wear masks in her county and surrounding counties. And she said they're also now giving entries into a drawing or something to win $10,000 if people will get vaccinated. And they're still not.
