Thanksgiving Day: An American Tradition.

Thanksgiving is an American holiday that points back to the days of the pioneers and the colonization of the new country called the United States of America. History:
In the 1700s when the pioneers first arrived to the New World they were overwhelmed by disease, lack of food and shelter, and conflict with Native Americans. However, after a period of time they grew accustomed to these challenges and even managed to create a friendly relationship with the natives. There came a point where certain Native American groups helped the new Americans plant crops, raise animals, and build shelter.
The first Thanksgiving was a day during harvest time when the pioneers and the Native Americans joined together to enjoy a feast of the grains, vegetables, and meats that they had raised. It was a time of celebration for their survival up until that point as well as a bright future that lay ahead of them.

Close relatives of the coronavirus may have been in bats for decades

    Viruses from the coronavirus lineage responsible for Covid-19 have been circulating in bats for decades, long before the virus started infecting people last year, a new study suggests.
    How exactly the virus jumped to humans is still a mystery. But the study suggests the coronavirus most likely evolved in bats — such as intermediate horseshoe bats, the source of the coronavirus that caused the 2003–2004 SARS outbreak — not snakes or pangolins as some researchers have suggested. Pangolins or another animal might still have been an intermediate host before the virus made it to humans.
    Based on the evolutionary relationship among the 68 coronaviruses, the researchers estimate that the coronavirus lineage that gave rise to the virus behind the pandemic has been present in bats for decades.
    That long period hints that more bat viruses with the potential to infect humans are circulating in horseshoe bats. Searching for such bat viruses can help identify potential threats before the pathogens make the jump, the team writes.

she screams.

I am a new man.

I snarl at her and bark.

I romp with joy in the bookish dark.
