“Dear PoPville,
It takes a special kind of lowlife to vandalize a health clinic that only serves the low income, especially during a pandemic. They’re a safety-net clinic. Mary’s Center in Petworth did a lot of COVID-19 testing during the early part of the shutdown. I hope they can splice together security footage to catch whoever did this.”
Ed. Note: Donations to Mary’s Center can be made here.

“Dear PoPville,
The jersey barriers in front of CVS at Georgia and New Hampshire were removed this morning [Saturday]. Do you have any knowledge of why? That sidewalk didn’t stop being too narrow to social distance and the pandemic remains raging so it seems premature at best.”
