I’m having some awful allergies this week. I’m feeling very grateful that I stocked up on Binax tests because I think I’ll be testing every other day for a few weeks while playing the Allergies vs COVID game. 😕

I'm annoyed the meeting about kids isn't until the 26th. DS's birthday is the 28th and I really hoped he could get a shot by then

This was an interesting thread about rapid tests. That is really interesting. I wish rapid tests were more widespread and easily (like really easily and freely) available. It seems like it could really cut down on infections with very minimal effort and disruptions.

I'm annoyed the meeting about kids isn't until the 26th. *Snip personal info* This is my son's bday as well. He will be 6 and we were really hoping to have his first shot done by then. He keeps saying he is getting his vaccine for his birthday. I guess we'll move the goal post a bit.

He still won't be able to have it for his birthday probably

What is typically the timeline for approval after the meetings? It looks like the advisory committee didn't meet prior to 12-15's approval (they got a status update at a meeting a month later instead) but when they met for Moderna and Pfizer's adult vaccines, EUA was issued next day.

richard Based on that comment and the immense pressure they are under to approve EUA, I'm hopeful it will be within that week that it gets approved.

I am binging Season 2 of Ted Lasso on Apple TV. At the same time, I'm also watching The Morning Show and they're incorporating COVID-19 into the season and I think I hate it.

jaygee A portion of our country has so egregiously lost the plot that I don't know how we recover from this dichotomy.

I am struck by the overlap between the Facebook algorithm showing high engagement content first and Fox News spending 4 hours every night making people angry and afraid

I tried to think of what I would say after I dropped my kid off and couldn’t come up with wording that wouldn’t be considered a threat and get me at the minimum on a list somewhere.

Fuck those assholes who are scaring kids. Absolute pieces of shit. I don't give a good goddamn what your politics are. You don't treat kids that way.

😒 so I have a recalled lot of the ellume test but in order to get the replacement, the instructions are to open it and start the sensor. Then on the second step of syncing it’s supposed to recognize the recall and give me a code. So I did, and got nothing. So I opened the damn $35 test only for the recall not to work? Oh and the step was after putting in all my info and watching the video. Customer service can expect a call tomorrow.

I'm so ready! DD and I were talking about it this morning on the way to school, and even though she's usually a little afraid of shots, she says ready and will be brave. She's got a digital day tomorrow and is on fall break next week, so yay for not having to be around other people for a little over a week!

So now how long until they greenlight this? I need my kids vaxxed asap. That said, only one of my three kids will fall under this. My other two both fall into the other TWO age breakdowns ðŸ˜

My other two both fall into the other TWO age breakdowns 😠I NEED my 4 year old vaccinated yesterday. She’s the highest risk of our whole family now that H and I are vaccinated. I reeeeally hope that the timeline for the littles is faster than the FDA and CDC are letting on.
