The New Normal

Yep, my mom had a temp of over 100 for 3 months --- but three tests showed she was negative

If I’ve learned anything from this pandemic it’s to take expert medical advice and media releases with a very large grain of salt.

100 for 3 months? F that sounds awful. Sorry to hear Camp.

Also, just FYI in case folks have not seen, it looks like at noon the CDC will rec distribution of the vaccine to anyone over 65 or with preexisting conditions. That might cover a chunk of folks on the blog.
Note that NYS would have to choose to implement this recommendation (unclear though my guess is NYS would).

How did you do it? I provide care for my 78 year old pop with Dementia and when I went through the website it said not high risk, vaccine not available at this time. GEEZ. Groups with strong unions take precedence over the elderly. Really ticks me off.

Slightly over 65 but only preexisting condition is running out of beer occasionally. I believe that wouldn’t count. I still have back up cider. Thank God.

My girlfriend was vaccinated by the hospital where she works. If you work in an institution that is a qualified provider and gets a direct allocation of vaccine, it's easy. For the general public not so much. I'm eligible but so are 7 million others in NY. The state is getting 300,000 doses per week. Do the math, it's gonna be six months unless something changes.
