I see where the local news this morning did a pc which said 975 doses of Pfizer's vaccine was delivered to OCMC in Rochester yday as well as a 1000 doses arriving in Iowa City at U of Ia Hospitals all of which is going to the healthcare workers dealing with CV-19 daily. It went on to say that Mercy Hospital over in Mason City is scheduled to get a 1000 doses of Moderna's version early next week if it gets approved by the FDA this week. So even here in small town Ia relief is getting closer :happy1: :cool: so stay safe & stay healthy!!

So sad news on GT's home front.  My f-i-l up in Brainerd at the nursing home tested positive and my son, his son and girlfriend all test positive yesterday.  What a mess.  GT is a little concerned.

Health Care workers should NOT be first in line for the vaccine.  It should be mandatory for all politicians.  The reason is simple. If something goes horribly wrong, we cannot afford to lose any Health Care workers however, politicians is another story all together.

Since my daughter-in-law is an RN I thought WTH is wrong with this guy?  :shocked:

Hope things are going as well as can be expected GT. Some of the cocktails available to aid recovery have come a long way since this thing started, along with some showing mild to nearly non-existent symptoms to begin with. Lost one I knew locally altho pretty sure there was an underlying condition involved. 80 years old but there was still some tread left on the tire.  :sad:

I doubt that I need to worry about getting the shot anytime soon. Been careful thus far and try to avoid putting myself at risk any more than necessary.

yesterday I watched the live feed from the VA hospital for the first shot..  kudo's to them for that..  what made me sick was the Gov taking all the credit for getting the vaccine into the state and then how he went to the airport to make sure it was safe guarded and deliveered safely to the VA..  what the heck all the other places that got are chopped liver???  and he wonders why folks don't care for him...  just my thoughts...

The political spin - on both sides - surrounding the pandemic is what has bothered me the most. 

I thought Walz showed some bold leadership in the beginning when we no one really knew what to expect.  Lock things down while we build the capacity to treat many, many patients and then ride it out.  Except the plan changed.  Capacity was planned and built, but things opened up much more slowly making the economic hardships felt by small businesses grow even worse.

Later, as fall turned into winter and infection rates started to climb, Walzie clamped down again.  Wisconsin did not.  If you look at the infection rate profiles for the two states right now, they are very similar.  Its really hard to know what is right and wrong in all this because this disease and the death it brings is real and personal for many. 

However, Walz knows he is going to be held accountable for his decisions and he has to be thinking about how he can spin events to make us believe his choices and policies were the best ones.

 The article said that there's been a couple in the UK too, both those people carried Epi-pens because they've both suffered from severe allergic reactions before. Both those have recovered. Now they are warning 'em not to give it to anyone with a known history of  severe allergic reactions.

Hey gang, thanks for the well wishes for my gang.  We hope to hear some good news soon.
Some sort of good news regarding the f-i-l. This is from my s-i-l.
For those of you who are wondering about my f-i-l, I have just spoken with staff and he is doing well.  He has a sore throat but his temp is normal and O2 is good.  He is up and about as usual and eating and drinking well.
