Excellent question. Hope we hear from gas_dr.
We will.
My wife and I will get our first Pfizer shot tomorrow and later on for the 2nd shot as per their package insert.
Many of our friends have had their first shot as of last week to yesterday. Sore arms/shoulders on/at the injection site on the next day or 2 with about 50% of them. Many are on the new blood thinners and had no problems besides a small bruise where the shot was given. 2 went home and to bed earlier than normal. They are doing okay now.
50-60% of the positive Covid cases are Hispanic and they make up a similar % in our ICU’s.
We have some friends with Covid, who are staying at home rather than going to the ICU or a general hospital floor.
They seem to be doing okay.
A doctor friend said that they had just sent home the last Thanksgiving Covid patients. Shortly after New Years, the Christmas and New Years Covid patients were checking in.
That small herd is being sent home. Some of the 60+ age patients are no longer around.
This doctor said that in the non Hispanic patients, the patients are on the high end of the middle class income. We know of 2 who have been safely discharged, 2 who are staying home and ??? on the last 2.
We may be seeing the positive herd impact from those getting vaccinations state wide and locally. It “ain’t” warm weather.
That's good. What state are you in?
We're in The People's Republik of Connecticut. Not sure yet when people 70 and under will be getting them here. CT was actually doing pretty well in getting vaccines into arms. Now suddenly everything seems to have slowed down...
