Went to the local CVS today for an influenza vaccine and COVID booster #5. We were the only ones wearing a mask aside from the feisty senior citizen who rushed her cart up the adjacent aisle to beat us to the line. Got the shots, had COVID (for the first time) in late October, so we should be well covered through the frozen, dark depths of winter. Still plan on avoiding indoor crowds, and will wear a mask, it’s NBD.
Digging deep into my meme archives from 2020 when there were some creative solutions to wearing a mask before they were readily available. If you have been a subscriber to my emails through the pandemic, some of these you may have seen before. If you have saved some over the last three years, please send along, and I’ll share with our very large subscriber group! Send them to clamiller@unmc.edu
Go pick up some new masks and protect the feisty senior citizens in your world. Looking at the CDC Flu View chart at the top of our website today, they are not doing well with this flu surge.
