I just came back from the market. I live in Maine.
The mask mandate is gone for now, however people who are not jabbed are encouraged to wear the mask.
There are some older folk wearing them, and we do ordinarily get summer colds.
Those things are hard to get rid of.
I have never had a flu shot. I haven't had the flu in over 10 years.
I only wear a mask when a store requires it.
I haven't been tested or jabbed, and I haven't had the Rona.
Now my Dad got sick back in January. He is 86 with mild underlying problems. Overweight, arthritis, gout in his toe.
The toe was removed.
He volunteered to get the pfizer as a candidate for the trial.
He got one jab in March and the 2nd in April.
He has the chills a lot, but he had that before the rona.
Before they knew it was rona, his doctor told him to put some thyme in a bowl with hot water and breathe it in to loosen the congestion in his chest.
It worked. I hear pine needle tea works too. 5 needles from a young pine tree in a cup with hot water, steep, and drink.
I smoke menthol tobacco so I have 2 advantages. Both tobacco and menthol help you cough up phlem in the chest.
Say what you want about smoking... but I haven't gotten sick in a long long time.
So anywhooo..
My dad has been over a couple times since he got jabbed. I don't see much difference other than his walking is getting harder.
But he led a strenuous life delivering and moving furniture. So that takes a toll on you when you get older.
Otherwise than that, so far so good.
I believe if a person wants to get a shot, get it. If you don't, then don't.
I don't socialize with people. I don't go out other than to food shop once or twice a month.
I'm not getting it.
The shot that is... or the rona.
I'm just tired of the mind games everyone is playing.
The fear mongering..
it is a control tactic. They want to see how many people are willing or not to comply.
You can deny this is happening, but you would pretty much have your head in the sand if you can't see what they are doing.
It's preperation time...
The whole world is their labratory..
I refuse to be a guinea pig, although even by not complying, you still become one.
They got it all figured out.
But they're getting sloppy, and stupid, and careless.
People are waking up, no matter how some people try to keep them sleeping.
Too late to go back to sleep.
wakey wakey...
