My doc told me he was high on vaccines generally, but not the RSV vaccine if you are reasonably healthy.  I didn't ask him about COVID boosters.  I'll think about it more when we're due.  My doc is pretty responsive to emails.

My youngest brother who took many precautions as a dentist (double masking while working) finally got COVID this past week for the 1st time. I am over 65 and didn't take the RSV this year. It was the 1st year offered. I got the COVID and flu vaccines. The odds of RSV increase for very young, and for older persons. I thought I would bide my time on RSV a bit longer.

It can only be viewed as a bad decision with four years of hindsight. 

Remember at the time, COVID was a virus that no one knew a damn thing about other than it hospitalized 1/6 of those it infected, and killed half of those. Everyone I knew in healthcare and education was terrified to bring it home. 

I remember being at state basketball at Williams Arena that Wednesday, and everyone's phone kept buzzing with alerts about tourney cancellations, and then Big Ten universities moving the rest of their semesters online and sending their students home.

To me, this is the absolute worst part of the lockdowns.

This bitch needs to go to prison for the rest of her life, as do all the people who accepted her union stooge donations and supported her line of thinking (control over people).

Moderna moves three vaccines into final stage trials (cnbc.com)

I meant to mention that relatively few folks in Japan or Korea were wearing face masks.  There were more than here, no doubt, but it was probably about 15% of those walking about in a mall or outside.  I saw a couple folks alone in their cars with a mask on.

I was a bit surprised.

There were a few on the ship with masks, maybe 3% or so.  In Japan, a higher percentage of retail workers had masks.
