Today's topics range from the COVID vaccine to working for Amazon to a weekend event meant to help us improve the nation's discourse.

Good morning. It's Wednesday and we all honestly just probably want to get through the day as fast as possible. 

So, let's see what we have posted so far and know that we'll have something coming on UFOs later. That's right. UFOs. 

For now, here are three columns to get your day started. 

How to respond to vaccine hesitancy

But we do have a follow-up question. What, if anything, would convince you to go ahead and do that? Jeremy Howard and Dr. Nick Talley offer up some advice on what the rest of us can do to help. 

"We can all do our bit to research and understand the truth around vaccines, and to make sure our friends, relatives and communities have the facts."

What's it like to work at an Amazon facility? 

Bobby Gosvener is an Amazon distribution facility employee in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He took time to write for us what it's like to work in the facility and lays out some of the challenges he and his coworkers face

"Newly released data Amazon reported to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration shows I was one of more than 24,400 Amazon workers to sustain an injury last year – nearly twice the serious injury rate of the non-Amazon warehousing industry as a whole." 

Don't be afraid of different opinions 

Thousands of Americans this weekend will begin to reverse political sectarianism by speaking directly with people who don't share their viewpoints.

America Talks, taking place Saturday and Sunday, offers a watershed opportunity for Americans to get to know someone with opposing political perspectives one on one and face to face.
