To go from studying in a run down public school in Brazil to studying at Elle Wood’s Harvard is one of the coolest things I’ve ever done.
Side note: I’m still completely star struck with this campus. Not that anyone could ever tell.

Americans tend to neglect wearing masks when they’re mingling with people outside of their immediate household, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Southern California published on Thursday.
The study, which was conducted by USC’s Dornsife Center for Economic and Social Research, reported that between 80 and 90 percent of American adults “consistently” believe masks are effective against COVID-19 infection and that nine in 10 adults wear them, especially during essential activities like grocery shopping and visits to the doctor.
However, they do so inconsistently when it comes to social interactions, according to the survey.
While 90 percent of adults in December reported wearing masks most of the time while grocery shopping, the figure dropped down to 51 percent among those who made close contact with non-household members. Similarly, only 47 percent of adults who attended gatherings of more than 10 people wore masks most of the time.
Nearly 80 percent didn’t wear masks while visiting other households or exercising outdoors, according to the study.
According to a recent USC Dornsife study, 80%-90% consistently believe masks are effective against COVID-19.
90% of adults surveyed where masks when going grocery shopping and to the doctor, because those places generally mandate wearing one to enter.
As for social interactions, wearing of masks is inconsistent, with 51% among those who made close contact with non-household members doing so, 47% doing so while attending gatherings of 10+ people, 60% do so for religious service attendance, and only 22% do so while doing outdoor exercise and 21% while visiting other households.
