The U.S. State Department has ordered families of Embassy personnel in Ukraine to leave the country, and they’ve also warned citizens there that the American government won’t be in any position to help them evacuate.

Just imagine thinking “well, I was still planning on going to Ukraine even with the possibility of a Russian invasion, but COVID TOO? We’d better call off the trip.”

If you are traveling to Ukraine this week, don’t forget your AK-47 and your N95 masks. https://t.co/oHma097lFn

It's OK. The Russian Army is fully vaxxed and boosted. https://t.co/73HBBplZCk

Gotta reserve some blame for Ron DeSantis as well.
