The good news: The United States has a window of opportunity to beat back Covid-19 before things get much, much worse.
The bad news: That window is rapidly closing. And the country seems unwilling or unable to seize the moment.
Winter is coming. Winter means cold and flu season, which is all but sure to complicate the task of figuring out who is sick with Covid-19 and who is suffering from a less threatening respiratory tract infection. It also means that cherished outdoor freedoms that link us to pre-Covid life — pop-up restaurant patios, picnics in parks, trips to the beach — will soon be out of reach, at least in northern parts of the country.
