SAN PEDRO SULA, HONDURAS Nestled among the homes, small shops and narrow streets of Colonia Perfecto Vásquez in San Pedro Sula, the sisters and staff at the small compound of Casa Corazón de la Misericordia (Heart of Mercy House) have quietly ministered to HIV-positive children for more than 25 years.
Established in 1995 by Mercy Srs. Masbely Del Cid, founder and administrator, and Sandra Hernández, nurse and care coordinator, the orphanage has served more than 1,000 children who have come through its doors in the past quarter century. Originally able to house 10 children concurrently, the facility was updated and expanded in 2002 and now serves up to 38 residential children at a time.

San Francisco opened the first of several neighborhood coronavirus immunization sites in the Mission District on Monday, moving forward with plans to reach communities hit hardest by the pandemic even as vaccine supply remained severely limited.
The new clinic was hailed as another hopeful sign of nearing an end to the pandemic, especially welcome after the state and Bay Area emerged from the single deadliest month so far. More than a third of COVID-19 deaths in the Bay Area occurred in January, with 1,677 people losing their lives last month.
