I work for a county health dept. They are probably understaffed and have too many cases to deal with at the moment. At the height of the pandemic where I work, we were telling people with positive cases that they may or may not hear from the health department. They were focusing their efforts on...
All adults in the household (3) got both doses of the Pfizer. No side effects whatsoever, other than a sore arm.
Looking forward to when the kid can get it, hoping before school starts in the fall. ☺️
In general you should wait two weeks between getting Covid vaccine and the flu vaccine. Because of Covid and all the social distancing measures that have been in place, cases of influenza this year are way down this season. But it is still recommended to get it. Check with your healthcare...
I hope you have a lovely time with your family @sourland 😊
Just bought a ticket for my sister to come visit us over here in Hawaii later this Spring. My mom is getting up in years (85) and we haven’t seen my sister for a year now.
My sister has been vaccinated, as she also works in healthcare...
CDC guidelines are now recommending that if you are vaccinated you can visit one household that is not vaccinated.
If a second household is involved then people should continue to wear masks and social distance. Technically they are saying there is a small risk of spreading it if you’ve been...
I just remember that crazy movie about white castle from about 20 years ago I think it was Harold and Kumar go to white castle. Never heard of white castle before I saw that movie🤣
My husband said he was going to wait and see if my mom and I turn into zombies before he got his. He though does not have a choice and we are making him get one!🤣
Hello all you lovely folks out there! Glad to hear so many of you are getting vaccinated. I was finally able to get a vaccine scheduled for my 85-year-old mother for the first week of March, it took over two months!
Getting the Pfizer version. My husband and I will be getting ours together with...
This is from Up-To-Date, point of care resource for heath care providers. Current as of 2/11/21:
●Ivermectin – Ivermectin has also been proposed as a potential therapy based on in vitro activity against SARS-CoV-2, but the drug levels used in vitro far exceed those achieved in vivo with safe...
When my parents moved from SF Bay Area to Seattle 20 years ago, they were told to get Washington plates ASAP or someone would key their car.😂
That was the time their was a huge influx of folks from California trying to escape the sky rocketing prices due to the dot com boom.
We will just be our immediate family of 4 for all the holidays coming up. We have been doing well so far keeping it this way. We are in a "pandemic bubble" with 2 of my daughter's classmates' families. Mostly for outdoor playdates and the like. Do not really socialize much, even with them. Just...
Very good and relevant advice here! 😊 I’d have to disagree with the aspirin advice though. They should check with their doctor before taking aspirin as it can cause harm in some people. Just because it’s over the counter doesn’t mean it’s harmless.
Current medical advice even has changed...
I agree wholeheartedly. There should’ve been one standard across the country from the get-go. Unfortunately it was a lack of the federal response that caused us to be in this mess right now. Hopefully things will turn around soon and we can get to healing. In the meantime everyone stay safe and...
