CDC's Guidance on Hurricane Prep Has Nothing to Do With Hurricanes

To prepare for the 2021 hurricane season, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urges Americans to get vaccinated against the Wuhan coronavirus "as soon as you can." Because, as a CDC site explains, "you can’t stop a tropical storm or hurricane, but you can take steps now to protect yourself and your family."

After the Biden administration missed its July Fourth vaccination goal, it appears federal agencies are pulling out all the stops to get more Americans vaccinated amid criticism for proposing door-to-door vaccination drives.

And while getting a COVID vaccine is the second action item listed by the CDC to protect against hurricanes, a coronavirus vaccine will, of course, not do anything to protect an individual or their property from the effects of a tropical storm.

The CDC also warns that "when you check on neighbors and friends, be sure to follow physical distancing recommendations (staying at least 6 feet from others) and other CDC recommendations to protect yourself and others." Because in the wake of a hurricane when you're rescuing your neighbors from their rooftops or collapsed homes, your priority should be to stay six feet apart, or something.

In addition, the CDC advises those who are forced to evacuate to seek shelter with friends or family members who know "what they can do to keep them safe from COVID-19" and places handwashing and mask-wearing as priorities for survivors of hurricanes.

We have taken many steps to protect our household - for starters, we’ve saved about 20 lbs of food scraps that will line the retreat of busybodies asking questions - our hefty black bears seem to like them. So do the coyote/wolf hybrids that run about 70 lbs.

It’s really not wise to attempt a visit this year.

They’d best stick to the logging road on their way out - I lost about a half mile of barbed wire in the woods.
