    I am just realizing that word editing tools like google docs, don't have a comment mode. Like I wrote something, I want to keep it, but I want a visual indication that this is not part of the main text. It could be an explanation or alternative version that should look different

    What happens when a govt ignores health professionals, doesn’t try to prevent new variants from coming in, and concocts inventive social distancing rules like ‘go to night clubs but don’t dance.’ Reckless holiday policies in Lebanon has led to an unfettered health disaster
