Hello and I'm Alyssa Master Monaco.

So you know.

Hello and welcome to Hysteria.

I'm Erin Ryan.

And I'm Alyssa, Mr Monaco. So, A Alyssa you and I've had some kind of like dark times during this pandemic.

Mm-hmm. Sometimes of pastimism, sometimes of guarded optimism.

But this week we got some really good news and that was that

President Joe Biden announced that we're going to have enough vaccine doses for the

entire US population by the end of May. So my question for you is on a scale of

1 to 10 how optimistic are you feeling about COVID this week?

Six and a half 7. Okay explain? Six and a half 7.

One because I'm very excited about that news of course

though also need to because I'm very excited about that news of course.

Though also need to know that they'll have enough doses, they won't be in people's arms by then.

We are having a slight uptick in deaths and daily COVID cases have plateaued at what was the spike level

last summer.

So I really need people.

Hello Governor Abbott of Texas, you motherfucker, to like really,

I'm worried that people are going to let up, that the variants are going to keep mutating,

that the vaccine won't work.

So I just really, I'm so excited about the news,

but I just need everyone to keep their mask on
