There may be light at the end of the tunnel for the pandemic, but one piece of the virus will live on. Dr. Anthony Fauci, who became the public face of the governments coronavirus response with daily press conferences and media interviews, on Tuesday donated his personal model of the SARS-CoV-2 virion to the Smithsonians National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. The model will be housed within the national medicine and science collections. The museum is currently collecting and documenting pieces of the pandemic for a future exhibit In Sickness and In Health. The exhibit will explore and display more than 200 years of medicine in the United States, including COVID-19. Fauci has used the blue and pink spikey ball as an educational tool over the past 13 months to explain COVID-19 in briefings to members of Congress, journalists, and the public. The model was made with a 3D printer and shows the various components of the complete, infectious form of the virus including

Just in time for pothole season, the latest report card on the nations infrastructure shows that the needs are great but funding is lacking. Many of the countrys roads, bridges, airports, dams, levees and water systems are aging and in poor to mediocre condition. And theyre in need of a major federal investment to keep from getting worse and to withstand the harsh effects of a changing climate, according to the American Society of Civil Engineers. The group gives the nations infrastructure in general a grade of C-minus on its quadrennial infrastructure report card, up from a D-minus four years ago. ASCE says the U.S. made some modest and incremental improvements in some infrastructure categories, including railroads, drinking water systems and inland waterways and ports.
