2/ One HUGE help: Cancel non-essential plans.
Unfortunately, this includes New Year’s Eve plans. The perfect storm of a new variant & holiday get-togethers is hitting communities & health care w/ FORCE! Testing is in short supply.

3/ Health care is under extreme pressure with surging cases. If you can avoid even one additional contact, you are helping. This is a temporary and urgent request (from a health care provider).

2/ ➡️ While the Nerdy Girls are still dreaming of transmission being tested in the clinical trials (call us☎️), the data pouring in from around the world strongly suggests that the vaccines are very good (but not perfect) at reducing ALL infections & by extension transmission.
3/ Recall the clinical trials (largely) tested only participants who developed symptoms. One possibility is that vaccines reduce the severity of COVID-19 to the point of no symptoms, but still allow the virus to replicate in the nose and throat & potentially be spread to others.

Thread alert (1/7): Since April 1st, I have decided to walk my dog Charlie in a different costume every day.
Two questions have come my way:
1. Why do you have so many costumes?
2. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? Normally followed by WEIRDO.
The WHY is the important part.

The WHY is the important part.
Why? Because it makes people smile or laugh. Why? Because it's ridiculous. Why? Because in this weird crazy quarantine world, we all could use a smile or a laugh or a distraction from all of this.

Why? Because I am not a nurse, a doctor, or someone working in a hospital putting the health of myself or my family at risk to save yours. Why? Because I am not someone working at the grocery or drug store so that you or your family have the food/medicine they need.
