#vaxxed

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Working my way through #covid19 Yep I was fully #vaxxed got it anyway. And it wasn't the least bit mild. 3 days of fever over #102. Today 5th just feels like a chest cold. But as any good #gardener would when expecting a week of rain. And having sprouting bulbs arrive monday. I went out and planted over 200 #bulbs on my hands and knees. Mixed #crocus , #iris reticulata Harmony, grape #hyacinth, PurpIe Emperor #allium , and #snowflakes. Still to plant are blue shades #anemone blanda and a few species tulips.

And also two colors of bachelor button seeds.

I note grass and #lupines coming up in the #fieldofdreams #wildlowermeadow #gardening #GardeningMastodon @gardening

I don't have an pictures from today but here's a recent sunrise.

#Vaccines are a case of the more the merrier. The more of a #population #vaccinated, the fewer the negative consequences of a #disease. If almost everyone is #vaxxed a disease may be kept to such a low level that it seems eradicated (until people stop being vaccinated). I find it a puzzle that so many people don't take advantage of this, especially the #UK #Government as it would reduce the huge #sickness #absence from #work.

Your Local Epidemiologist · Does everyone *really* need routine vaccinations?By Katelyn Jetelina

FYI, after work today, I got free COVID19 and Flu shots at my local Walgreens pharmacy.

These diseases are not imaginary! Protect yourself and your loved ones!

My motivation? I caught the *real* Flu 40 years ago, when I was 32, young, healthy, and strong. The real flu is *not* a bad cold. *Not* trivial. I would have *died* if someone hadn’t taken care of me. Burning fever. Unconscious 23 out of 24 hours, for days.

Be smart! Get vaxxed!

I may be sore and a bit rough this weekend. I signed up for covid and flu vaccines today, and Walgreens said, "You can get up to 4 at once! Do you want to add any of these others?" So I tacked on HPV and the HepA and HepB combo shot. I ended up having to go to two separate locations, but ended up with two vaccines in each arm. I wonder if this means all my DNA is now being overwritten. :ageblobcat:

What’s the current evidence on the relative merits of getting Novavax as a booster vs getting yet more Moderna/Pfizer boosters?

I know there was speculation that protein-based vaccines like Novavax •might• provide protection complementary to mRNA-based vaccines, and that mixing and matching •might• do better than merely repeating.

What’s the status of the science on that? A web search suggests “fuzzy.” Anybody have useful info beyond “heard on social media?”

My new favorite kind of comedy is people just writing "Vaxxed?" under any death-related post.

Celebrity dies in a plane-crash: "Vaxxed"?
Someone gets shot in a video-game: "Vaxxed?"
Pet gets put to sleep: "Vaxxed?"

Before i forget: get #vaxxed, people!
