Reflecting on the early days of 2020, Tim Mallad remembers the image of a son, anxious and helpless, questioning the health of his mother in a nursing home amidst a mysterious virus outbreak.
An administrator, reading a prepared statement to a reporter, offered no comment, a response that felt unsettlingly impersonal.
