Watching Ali Velshi tonight on MSNBC..

About Covid n it’s various degrees of infection. I was very in tuned to this segment b/c a very good good of mine n her husband who have their shots n boosters are now down w/ Covid of some kind.i wondered why I had not heard from her n now this. She is the second friend I know that have shots n boosters n now down w/ Covid of some kind. I am not freaking out.. I have been mocked n called a worry wart I can’t say how many times b/c I still wear my masks. Please. I’ll take all of it..wear your masks. I hear another booster maybe this Fall so just get it. In my mind I think of it as a plague n just maybe a booster every year like the flu shot.. be well..

though they have been pricked and received boosters. I fear I will also even though I try to mask often I do sometimes forget because NO one else I see does anymore. damn

and I still wear my mask in public. I was just reading today how Covid cases are exploding in Ohio. I've already had it once and don't want it again. I too will be lined up in the fall for shot number five.

So, know that you are not alone in taking precautions.

I can't afford to get sick.

A friend I haven't heard from called the other day and said she almost died before the vaccine and then she got it a second time this year, fully vaxxed. She now has long covid and is concerned about getting it again.

Just the truth. Heathrow was literally worse than Texas about wearing masks and EVERYONE had the new variant when we landed in Kenya. You wouldn't have known by official government reports, because no one is testing.
