The Martha's Vineyard Times
As the one-year anniversary of the Island’s first real impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic approaches, we reflect on what’s been a most difficult year. In this issue, we feature some of your stories in a special section, “Voices from the Pandemic,” which looks at the various ways we’ve all been affected — working and learning from home; feeling unwelcome in your second home; and one heart-thumping battle with this insidious and potentially deadly disease that turned out OK.
We have been mostly supportive of Gov. Charlie Baker and how he has handled these difficult times — shutting down schools last spring, and putting restrictions on restaurants and other businesses, setting limits on public gatherings, and limiting out-of-state travel.
