My daughter -- and more importantly my 8-month-old granddaughter -- are driving up to the Galilee to visit me tomorrow. As always, before I spend any time with my granddaughter I do a rapid test. I just finished one and the results say I am not about to die right away. (At age 76, I don't trust that completely, but at least it won't be from Covid.)
