PDN Introduction.
CV05. Economics: Covid-19 Coverage Safety Net Has Plenty of Holes in US. COVID-19 can do more than torment patients physically. It also clobbers some financially. Even though many insurers and the U.S. government have offered to pick up or waive costs tied to the virus, holes remain for big bills to slip through and surprise patients.
CV15. Death: The Covid-19 Pandemic Will Be Outlasted by the Grief Pandemic – and No One Is Preparing for It.
-A, ADDED As a Pandemic Presses On, Waves of Grief Follow its Path.
CV16. Consequences, Social Change: Offline: Reasons for Hope. Fatigue. Despair. Misery. Cracks are beginning to appear in our mental resilience. 10 months of this calamity. How much more can we bear. It was always so. When the Bishop of Winchester died of plague in 1626, John Milton issued a searing cry of anguish at 17 years old, “sad...with no companion, and many sorrows clung to my soul”. He sought to commemorate this “grim killing” of a revered literary figure, a “dreadful death, fearsome with her sepulchral torch”. “Why does it please you”, Milton asked, “to stain your hands with human slaughter, and to have sharpened sure arrows against a noble breast, and to have driven a half divine soul from its home”. It would be easy to sink into despondency. Governments are struggling. The public is restless. We need hope and there are reasons for hope.

CV17. Uncertainty, Contradictions: Amid Covid, Many Businesses in Precarious Spot as 2020 Ends CV05.
CV18. Narrative, Social Reality: Mortality in the U.S. Was More than 280,000 Higher During the First Eight Months of 2020 than Any of the Previous Five Years over the Same Period. Claim: U.S. mortalities this year are not materially different from the previous 5 years. Factually Inaccurate: The claim that mortality in the U.S. in 2020 is similar to yearly mortality from 2015 to 2019 directly contradicts the number of deaths recorded by the U.S. CDC.

CV30. Methodology: The current shortness of PDN is due to most of it being repetition of the patterns of what has happened in the previous months, or an incremental continuation of trends already well established. | Some items are added to a previous stub and on occasion will bring collected information forward. Current plan is to stop collecting Jan 3, 2100, but will repost the past year with additions, possibly added commentary, and some more editing. | There is also less open source information related to human behavior in the context of CV, overtaken by news related to the upcoming presidential election, the erosion of news sources due to economics, fatigue from continual bad news, and the normal dip in coverage with the approaching holiday season. | Being optimistic, more detailed academic research studies will probably begin to appear toward the end of 2021, and if there is funding available likely five to ten years before there is enough emotional distance and filtering to identify misinformation, for rigorous and will written studies will be available.
CV31. Futuring: Our Post Covid Society: What to Keep, Toss or Do Differently. We’ve all been living in the moment for six long months or more. Many of us are homesick for 2019.
