Red states are going to have to suffer

oops, was that political?

Our discussion of the use of "China Virus" still bugs me. 

The piece linked below was written by a high school classmate and friend of mine. Maybe they aren't related. I think they are. You have to make your own decisions.

I feel "normal" (for me) now.  I'm having a G&T, didn't drink anything but water yesterday.  It's like your immune system announces to the body:

"Hey, boys, I need your attention here, gonna have to draw on some reserves, y'all might be feeling a bit tired for a bit.  Some kind of strange in the works."

I think that is Good News, in effect.  If I see the real thing, Immune System will say:

"Heh, I know this  trick.  Saddle up boys, time to lasso some virii."

Shirely, "we" have to be exploring this technique for other vaccines.  I wonder if in five years we'll be getting shots galore.  My doc said I should get a pneumonia shot annually now, as well as flu.

maybe they can improve the shingles vaccine before I get it

Yeah, I reacted to that one hard.  This one made me tired for 12 hours, that was it, no arm soreness at all, no fever, no nothing worth mentioning.

I could tell my body reacted to it, felt like not having enough sleep sort of, but I had a hard time sleeping during the day.  I just lay in bed reading.

I never had chicken pox. Does this mean I don't need the shot, or should I get it??

I'm 54.

They advise it over 60 as I recall.  I would ask an MD that question.  I had a brief but severe reaction to Shot 2, violent chills, my teeth were chattering.  The wife gave my Tylenol and it stopped quickly.

I think it's now recommended at 50.

If you've never had chicken pox, you don't have the varicella virus in your system, which means you can't get shingles... But it also means you're susceptible to a chicken pox infection as you have no immunity.

Agree you should ask your doctor...

This being Indiana, they had a giant big screen with the tournament games on in the auditorium post dose for your waiting period..   Next best thing to getting the shot in gasoline alley at the speedway I guess.
