Bob Dylan is on tour this fall.

I wouldn't spend big bucks (for me) to see many people in concert. But I did for him.

Covid booster shot rollout off to a bumpy start

The rollout of a new round of Covid vaccines in the U.S. is off to a bumpy start as some patients report delays in health insurance coverage for the shots.

Private insurance plans and government payers such as Medicare are required to cover the new jabs from Pfizer and Moderna, which became available late last week. U.S. regulators have recommended all Americans ages 6 months and up get the new round of vaccines.


The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, some private health-care providers and CVS confirmed the temporary delays in coverage and emphasized that Americans can access Covid vaccines at no cost through insurance plans. They said the reason for the delays is that some insurers are still working to update their plans to include the new vaccines.

Dozens of posts on social media in recent days show some patients were charged anywhere between $125 and $190 for a shot at pharmacies. Others were told their insurance plans aren’t covering the new vaccines yet.

Today Ukraine struck the HQ of the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea.

This was a daylight raid. Russia has lost control of the air in Crimea.

The last few days I've been seeing mysterious posts about the war in Ukraine

Like the following, a translation by some Russian military commentator. They all hint at something coming. Don't know what they mean, if anything.

PS: People say more Russian prisoners are being captured in recent days. Don't know if that's related.
