From what I read about shingles, the two shots are vastly to be preferred over the illness, even with some side effects.


Hopefully, that's true of EVERY medicine, ever.

Medicine?  Probably not, certainly not "ever".  Some medicines back in the day were pretty awful, like mercury for syphilis.

Vaccines?  That depends on other factors I think.  We don't get every vaccine known to man obviously, for good reason.

Good news: Florida says persons 50 and older can now receive vaccine 

Bad news: a “federal directive” requiring only those involved in education are priority- so none of the websites will allow you to register if you are not in education.  

I have no issues with that although it’s a shame non of the local tv and radio disclosed it.  They just say if your 50 or over you can sign up- which is false.

In Ohio anyone 40 and up can get signed up right now.

It's a product of the older population here. Most everyone I know has been vaccinated. Those who have not been are all under 60.

Out to lunch yesterday, our server, a rather cute late 20s gal, mentioned she'd had COVID.  I later asked her how bad it was, and she said bad, it was a year ago and the docs misdiagnosed it as Strep, which she knew was wrong.  She went back a few days later still very sick and they knew what it was.  She said it took her two weeks to recover most of the way.  My son had a similar illness, so it does hit younger folks hard at times.

It could be some early variant was harder on younger folks, not sure about that at all.

I had read or saw on a program that Lincoln in the last year of his life was treated with mercury but it wasn't for that.I can't imagine the side effects - a bullet might have been merciful

Mrs. GR had no reactions to the first shot other than a sore arm for two days, so it appears that she did NOT have COVID last January. We are very much looking forward to April 28, which is 2nd shot +14 days.
