I recall our flight to Germany on Lufthansa, the flight attendants were manic about mask wearing.  This is two years back when my wife tested positive and we missed our cruise.  The funny thing is in Copenhagen, almost nobody was masked.

There were a lot of masks in Seoul, both outside and in the subway. However, that's as much a cultural thing as anything, and has been for long before COVID.

Isn't much of Orient Asia that way too?

Saw a person the other day, driving alone in a convertible, with a mask on.  I think some folks just really like the mask.  Maybe they have ugly mouths?
Folks been asking me to mask long before the Wuhan Flu

Oh look, a hit piece on Florida (one of many).

Ron DeSantis—going against CDC guidelines—advises Florida residents under 65 to avoid getting the COVID booster (msn.com)

In the discussion, hosted by DeSantis, Florida's surgeon general, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, told viewers not to worry about getting infected with COVID and advised people 65 and under to forgo the booster shot.


But... no hit piece on Australian guidelines?

COVID-19 booster vaccine advice | Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care

Booster doses

All adults can get a booster if it’s been 6 months or longer since their last COVID-19 booster or confirmed infection (whichever is most recent). Boosters give extra protection against severe illness from COVID.

The Australian Government has accepted a recommendation about COVID-19 vaccines. All adults aged 75 years and older should receive an extra 2023 COVID-19 vaccine dose if six months have passed since their last dose.

This particularly includes people at higher risk of severe illness, like:
  • adults aged 65-74 years
  • everyone 18 years and over with medical comorbidities, disability or complex health needs.

Children and young people aged 5 to 17 years can consider getting a booster dose if:
  • they have a health condition that put them at risk of severe illness, and
  • if it’s been 6 months since their last dose or COVID-19 infection.

Your doctor can help you decide if your child should receive a booster.

Booster doses are not recommended at this time for children and adolescents under 18 years of age who do not have any risk factors for severe COVID-19.


All vaccines are approved for use in Australia and continue to give strong protection against serious illness from COVID-19. Omicron-specific bivalent vaccines are preferred for boosters.

We got our booster yesterday, it really knocked me back (the flu shot was given at the same time).  I went to bed at 8 PM.  I feel fine today.

The very first COVID shot tired me out quite a bit, but I think this one was worse, some, for whatever reason, I guess it means it's working.

Now Bill Gates can track my every move.

Well, I'm glad there are no mandates for travel anymore. Hopefully there won't be.

I picked our neighbor up yesterday at the airport and he asked about COVID and I said I hadn't heard much news.  He said "I k now the U of Alabama was shut down because of it."  I couldn't find any news about that.  He's been in Turkey for 6 months.

He was wearing a mask at the airport (as was my wife), I don't consider that a terrible notion (I didn't).  It's crowded with foreigners breathing etc.

Pretty sure my son has it right now.  Pretty bad cough, sore throat, and a slight fever.  He'll be staying home for a few days.

I've lost track. I think this is the 5th time for me?? Got a hard cough and I'm tired. Taste feels a little off too. Nothing seems to taste right. This never happened to me before.

Anyhow, I tested myself yesterday with a kit that came from the USPS (free) a couple of weeks ago. Why not get them, I figured. Expiration 2-22-23, and from Korea.

Showed negative. Did a PCR and BOOM. Covid. I'm good at getting this thing.

Gonna go get a checkup done at the clinic to make sure everything is OK in the lungs. And then I'll just drink plenty of fluids and get my rest, most likely.

Bummer.  I wonder why some folks get it so often who are not obviously exposed like say hospital workers.

Well, so does my doctor, and also my wife who until recently was also family practice.  There's probably some exceptions, but in general that is their recommendation.
