I'd love to watch it but don't subscribe to AppleTV and just can't afford another subscription. Hopefully it will show up on Prime eventually. And I would go one step further. In the early days of the pandemic, the virus didn't appear to be affecting children as badly as elderly people. Because of this situation, which never should have been considered permanent and in fact turned out to be temporary, many people refused to do even the smallest things to protect others. Of course, as we now know (well any of us that have paid attention and are being honest about it), the virus did eventually start to affect children very badly and many have been lost or now suffer from Long Covid as a result. We must care about EVERYONE in our community. I am especially sensitive to this as I never got to have children but consider my life to be of value. In any case, the sentiment should be both at the societal and individual levels. As a society, the U.S. populace sadly demonstrated its total uninterest and care for its weakest members whether they be children, elderly, or disabled. That is the measure of a society.

I remember listening to something on a group of individuals attempting to be lead out of, I believe the camp fire, and ended up being trapped. They circled the emergency vehicles and tried to protect everyone but the they knew it was futile until helicopters arrived. Horrifying story, as is The Lost Bus. But the end gives hope.
