fully vaxxed and boosted (actually that was the last real chance of exposure... at the mass vax center for my booster shot).

Omicron is so transmissible that we will ALL be exposed to it sooner or later. Only thing we can do is be vaxxed and boosted and try to flatten the spike so that IF we are one of the unlucky few that do get a severe case, there will be hospital beds available with oxygen, etc for us.
