Almost ten months ago when coronavirus gripped the country with almost a standstill of airline operations due to lockdowns with shelter in place. We begin a chapter that can be the beginning of the end. Covid19 coronavirus is not going to disappear overnight. It may never disappear but by far a start for the cure. Many cargo airlines and airlines in general will adapt and bring the essential cargo to all areas across the globe. United Airlines was the first commercial airline with a charter flight and other will follow.

Logistics on a monumental level beyond years gone by will start gearing up. Extreme low temperatures of negative 80 degrees is needed to transport and special care with temperature controlled is required. This does not mean any cargo carrier can transport there are many specific requirements needed to transport. As one reported said this weekend there is a light at the end of a very long tunnel. With that said we have a long way to go to get to the end of this tunnel, so patience is something we need to understand. First responders and fire rescue will also be among those tops of the list to receive the vaccination for coronavirus. Already the Fire Chief of and five members of DC fire rescue will be among the first to receive the vaccination.
