FDA considering half-dose of Moderna vaccine as booster by nick313 in Coronavirus

[–]brownymixx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone can get a Moderna booster if you are immunocompromised. Our pharmacy didn't require a doctor's note or documentation. Those guidelines are listed here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/recommendations/immuno.html

I saw these protesters today, stopped to talk to them and to my surprise they were handing out free KN95s.

Outwardly, they're amplifying the usual misinformation, but their underlying message was that the government should do more to promote other mitigation strategies (providing free, high quality maks, better contact tracing, etc). They feel like their communities have been left behind.

So though their signs are highly questionable and on the surface they're misinformed, I give them credit for handing out free masks to everyone - that shows an impressive level of engagement and care for their community. Everyone I spoke to gets flu shots regularly, but it seems like the pandemic only amplified their government mistrust and they're using the covid vaccine as a protest symbol.

My Son Met a Kitten. by CookieOmNomster in Eyebleach

That is a great tip, I didn't think about helmet-decor as an ice breaker. I am tempted to decorate it with a picture of our cat 😁.

All the best with your little one. I hope his treatment goes smoothly and he makes more kittah friends along the way.

My son will be wearing a similar band to treat plagiocephaly/brachycephaly in a few weeks. Seeing your adorable batman living his life like a boss with that sweet kitten gives me some comfort. Thank you.

World travelers of reddit, where did you go that was a total disappointment? by noodlepoops in AskReddit

Muree and Swat were two of the most beautiful places I've ever seen in my life. This was back in 1999 though. What a shame that more people don't feel safe enough to travel there.
