WASHINGTON (AP) Doug Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, has probably toured more COVID-19 vaccination centers than he ever imagined.
If he ever imagined that at all.
His drop-ins at places where people are rolling up their sleeves for a jab of protection have become a particular focus for Emhoff as he begins to shape his groundbreaking role as SGOTUS the first “second gentleman of the United States.”
It’s a sharp pivot from his past work as an entertainment lawyer.

So her office worked with the region s two major health care systems to set up in-school clinics. It s again coming back to convenience.

“April and May are the hunger season,” said Ravi Logan, the executive director of Dharmalaya, a collective promoting a holistic dharma (enlightenment) in personal, social and ecological spheres.
Empty grocery shelves in early 2020, for example, reminded people that hunger season arises quickly for an unprepared people. Food doesn’t simply show up for consumption as if by magic.
