Saw a couple of women in a diner today.

Pink and green hair, piercings, tats, and... masks.
I"m assuming they weren't a badass gang of grannies?

The virus is spreading rapidly, but as in the 1918 flu, in its later stages it is much less dangerous. Two-weeks ago one of my former secretaries who is now in charge of HR in a large nursing home 25-miles away said 8 employees were out with COVID-19. There are less hospitalizations and death, but significant spread. My brother-in-law had it after returning from the Women's NCAA Final Four, but he also had it in January so it surprised me he could get it so quickly again. It was no problem despite he is 69 or so.

It's not "in the news" around here, at all.  There are no precautions anywhere I have seen, other than some individuals wearing masks.  I've never tested positive.  If I had it, it was mild indeed.

"They" aren't pushing booster shots any more that I've noticed.

I see ads for the booster all the time on local TV here. They are wasting money on this market.

My wife is happy that as of April 3, she no longer is required to wear a mask at work. She works in a medical office and up until then, the CA Dept of Public Health mandated masks be worn in "high risk" places like medical offices. She's had to deal with this for 3 years.

To be fair, I watch almost no TV beyond some sports.  My wife may have the local news on when I'm passing by.

We watch some Law and Order reruns at times.

Wow. Feel bad for her and anyone else in that position.

Not much, but don't forget the population is starting to shrink again (thank God).

Was just at a festival in the park, packed, hard to move, for miles.  Almost no masks.  Yesterday was rainy so I'm sure folks moved their visit to today.
