    How American Science Returned To Astonish Us All

    Columnists Froma Harrop - 0

    French news cameras were in California last week to capture America’s spectacular drive to mass-vaccinate against COVID-19. What were the visuals? An amusement park with cars lined up, their passengers waiting for a jab. “Armies” of volunteers are helping, the French reporter says as attendants in protective gear direct the snaking traffic.
