Also has anyone been told they need a tetanus shot after they complete their vaccine cycle? They told my that and I'm wondering if they are just trying to get him in for a booster or if it's actually related. Nope. We all got boosters in 2019 when I was pregnant with DD and no one has said a word about needing a new one now 🤷🏼♀️

No, but when we got our TBE vaccines last summer they flagged we were in an age bracket that was due for a tetanus booster so may be something similar?

But he actually got a booster 2.5 years ago so i think he's good. We will follow up! Thanks all!

Newest article from Ed Yong on the delta variant. So far the mRNA vaccines are 88 percent effective against it.

My oldest was running a 102 fever and threw up a couple times last night so we ran out and got him the rapid results test. He was negative, thank goodness. And naturally back to his insane tornado of energy self this morning. Happily telling my MIL when she came today "Grandma, I threw up last night! hahahah!"
Kids.
Anyway, I was relieved it wasn't covid because the Delta variant scares me. Also made me grateful that this is only the second time he's needed to get tested.

Interesting thread about two vaccinated people getting covid. Stay safe. Yup. I have a family dr and my daughter and I both had yearly check ups today. She told me that with my two unvaccinated kids and my husband and my co morbiditys, we need to be extremely careful. Nowhere without masks on. I’m to start masking my kids back up at the playgrounds. I’m okay to go to church with mask on, but not kids (our state thinks Covid is gone). I need to send both the 2 nd grader and preschooler to school with masks on even though it’s optional here. 2nd grader will be fine but I’m concerned on how to keep a 3 year old in a mask all day when her classmates don’t have to have them on.

Interesting thread about two vaccinated people getting covid. Stay safe. Thanks for this, it’s validating for me as we’re still being really careful. We kept our masks on indoors while we were traveling this week. And we mostly stayed outside and distanced from other people. I just kept looking at DS and thinking, the world is not back to normal for him. We can’t just act like there’s no risk now that we’ve been vaccinated. We don’t know what the variants will do as restrictions are lifted. It’s tempting to just toss the mask and do all the things we’ve missed, especially as more and more people around us are doing that. So this is a good reminder to stay cautious.

I’m still masking inside unless eating and we aren’t really do that much because of DS. My county that is 80% + of eligible people vaccinated issued a warning this week of a slight rise in cases due to the delta variant. And I know people are mostly staying out of the hospital if they have a breakthrough case but I’m still trying to avoid that because of long covid symptoms.

They need to get the fast food joints and radio stations in on promoting vaccines Show up at mcd get a vaccine, get $ off on your burger or a free coke. Radio station has their booth with vaccines. Free swag, meet a rock star, Win music download, concert tix whatever they can get. Instant gratification/reward for vaccine.

It is a sad testament to the state of our society that "buy one meal get a meal free if you get a Covid vaccine at the same time!" is what might convince people to get it instead of just "get a Covid vaccine and have a way lower chance of dying or killing a loved one!"

I didn’t mean to scare you. Oh gosh no don’t feel bad. It actually just confirmed why I’m glad ive been so uneasy about de-masking, and making DS mask all the time. Like it was like ok good my masking isn’t unreasonable but also damn my masking isn’t unreasonable. Ya know??

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has changed the rules in its pandemic funeral assistance program to make it easier for family members of those who died of covid-19 early in the pandemic, before testing was commonplace, to access funds. They will be able to submit for reimbursement even if the death certificate does not list covid-19 as the cause of death, Politico’s Erin Banco reports.

Well after canceling our WDW trip due to no indoor masking requirement, there is now a hurricane headed that way for the day we would've arrived.

My Reno radio station is having a weekly cash drawing for anyone with proven vaccine status (12-17 have their own categories). It starts next week and the prizes range from college scholarships to 1 mill for the grand prize. If you don't win, you're still in the drawing. I'm researching if I can enter now, even though I'm not a NV resident.

Omg, I got so excited seeing this email subject in my inbox: "Pfizer & BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine Pediatric Study"
Turns out they just wanted to let me know that there won't be any studies in my area. Womp womp.
