Protect yourself, new Covid & flu vaccines are available now.
"During this "lull" b/w the 9th & 10th waves of Covid in the US, ~1 in 111 people are est. to be actively infectious with Covid.
Many people are on their 3rd or 4th infection. Repeat infections increase the cumulative risk of chronic & serious health conds."😷#MaskUp #VaxUp

New studies show more risks associated with #COVID, esp. with the heart:

This is all on top of the 13 people I know personally who have had #COVID during the past 2 months, myself included.
I wonder what it's going to take for our government and our society to do something.
(This is a rhetorical wondering.)
Spouse got boosted yesterday. Doc says I can get it as soon as I feel better. So I'm hoping for Friday, for me and 11yo both. 🤞
It's bad out there, y'all. #MaskUp, #VaxUp, #GetBoosted, and stay as safe as you're able. 🖖

Full disclosure, I did'nt read the entire report, bc it's a LOT.
BUT this is very hopeful!!!
"Based on our studies here and previous reports by others, antihistamine drugs could be utilized both as early prophylactic interventions to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection and as late therapeutic countermeasures to mitigate long-term COVID-19 symptoms."

Greatest frustration today has been that a transformer in the neighborhood blew, and we have been without power for nearly 3 hours.
It's 106°F outside.
Spouse has gotten the generator going so we can have fans. #OGandE says it'll be at least 2 more hours before power comes back on.
I'm just glad this didn't happen when I was at my #COVID worst. 😳

I had to sit on the shower floor to do it, and on the bathroom floor to dry my hair after, but I did it. That's a win.
Spouse is making homemade pizza, and I'm glad that my nose is unstuffy enough for me to enjoy it. I'll take that little win, too.
I'm looking forward to when he and 11yo can get the new booster in a few weeks. 🤞

Day 14. I finally started feeling noticeably better (AGAIN) yesterday afternoon. I must be improving for real this time, because earlier today I noticed that my cuticles look awful, and it's actually bothering me.
Yesterday's image I made for my private IG account. It has gotten two likes over there so far.

...so that's a relief.
But yesterday, Day 9, I took a rapid test and got about the strongest positive line I've ever seen on a #covid test ever.
And Day 10 has been unrelenting misery. So, to quote Darwin, "I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything."
Tomorrow, I will miss my daughter's first day of 6th grade. I'll probably miss her whole first week.
This is some bullshit.

I highly recommend clicking through and reading the article. From there, you can click on links to the resources I listed.
Please, please, y'all: #MaskUp, #VaxUp, and be careful.

#COVID19 Sufferer on Day 8 As Direct Result Of Someone Not Masking Up

@KarinWanderer Solidarity. I am just wrapping up Day 5 -- and I caught it from someone who didn't mask up AND didn't tell me they were sick before I spent an hour inside their house.
Joining in the #MaskUp #VaxUp cry! Because #CovidIsntOver!
I think the bitter taste is actually good news: if nothing else, it's proof I haven't lost my sense of taste. Beyond having a slightly stuffy nose, I haven't lost my sense of smell. That tells me I'm avoiding brain damage. Yet another good reason to keep taking the Pax.
So #MaskUp, y'all--especially in crowded public spaces.
#VaxUp & get your boosters.
If you feel the slightest bit sick--stuffy nose, scratchy or sore throat, pounding headache, diarrhea--STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM PEOPLE.

"'Patients who are not vaccinated have a greater risk of getting Covid-19 long term symptoms,' Bratzler said.
"Bratzler says Oklahoma has one of the lowest vaccination rates in the country, which is a big reason why OKLAHOMA LEADS THE NATION IN LONG COVID. (emph added)
“'In Oklahoma, we had pretty low vaccination rates,' Bratzler said. 'So we had high rates of Covid. We had the second highest death rate in the nation from Covid-19.”

If you already received an order over the last month….th th that’s all folks. 😊
For a moment I thought it was an “additional” again.

The Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, a German medical regulatory body and research institution for vaccines and biomedicines, had to issue a message to medical doctors and pharmacists clarifying that an official looking letter recently sent to several doctor's offices and other medical facilities stating that mRNA vaccines were unsafe and not to be administered anymore was #disinformation and to disregard any of its contents.

2. For Dec 25, what's the risk of COVID?
8-10 people (small gathering) = 25% chance someone is infectious
20 people (visiting two families) = 47% chance
100 people (flight, restaurant, etc.) = 96% chance
Limit gatherings, #MaskUp, #VaxUp, Test/Isolate, #CleanTheAir “
Today's #COVIDBooster update
Haven't felt too bad today. No aches, no fever. Still very little energy, but more than yesterday. My back hurts, but pretty sure that's unrelated. Can't tell if the neck pain is from back pain radiating; or from swollen lymph node at the base of my neck on side where I got the shot; or from a combo.
Hopeful I'll feel well enough to visit UPS for pricing on mailing a painting to @SrRochardBunson! 🤞
#CovidBooster update
I'm now 21 hours in. Woke up this morning feeling tired but otherwise not too bad. Body aches started shortly before noon. I checked my temp at 2pm and it was 99.1 -- my normal temp is 97.7. Yeah, I'm one of those. Took some Tylenol (acetaminophen/paracetamol), which is finally helping a little.
Currently advising 11yo on her ideas of how she'd survive without adults in the event of an #apocalypse.
#CovidBooster in the HOUSE
And by house I mean my body.
If anyone needs me, I'll be languishing waifishly and bingeing Netflix for the next couple of days. 😫
