Letters to the Editor - The Palacios family, new CDC guidelines, mask mandates, carbon pollution, vaccine distribution in Princeton
Readers were touched by a column on the Palacios family, question Judge Jenkins requiring masks, think caregivers should get the vaccine, talk about fossil fuels and praise those giving vaccines in Princeton.

Miriam’s 22-year-old daughter and Lucy’s sister, Nely, died from complications of COVID-19 shortly after her son was born through an emergency C-section when Nely was intubated. Her father, Miguel, also died shortly after being hospitalized for COVID-19.(Lynda M. González / Staff Photographer)
Isaiah Palacios is 2 months old. He does not know that his mother is dead. He is blessedly unaware that his grandfather also died a few weeks after he was.
