It only takes one slippery spot for us old timers. (And if I was paranoid, I might think the cars were all trying to kill me too.)

I saw on the news this morning that N95 masks are going to be available free from pharmacies across the U.S.
Here's how to get free N95 masks from pharmacies or community health centers The story also mentioned that the masks have an electrostatic charge that makes them 10x more effective at filtering out particles. My wife and I have been using N95 masks since they became generally available from Amazon, but staying away from other people has probably been the most effective strategy, along with full vaccination. My wife has also perfected shopping online with curbside pick up for all our groceries. She has a spreadsheet, so she knows how much we have of everything and online price comparisons are a lot less time consuming than in-store shopping. She says she never wants to go back to pre-pandemic shopping.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

She anticipates it may be months before smaller health centers like hers get the N95 masks to distribute. She is hopeful but realistic. Yeah, supply chains really have broken down in a lot of different ways during the pandemic. It has certainly exposed the deficiency of manufacturing of critical strategic supplies in the U.S. also. Prices on lots of products have skyrocketed too. I use a lot of AA batteries in the electronic flashes in my imaging system. Energizer Ultimate Lithiums last about 4 times longer than alkalines but they are more expensive. The last batch of 100 that I ordered were $2.09 each, about 3x more than they were before the pandemic and take 2-3 weeks for delivery.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

But I have not gone into a store in over two years now and have little or no incentive to do so in the foreseeable future. Yep we are feeling the same. I did go into stores during the cross country trip at the end of August, but it was limited and fast for essential supplies. And we camped the whole way too.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

I wonder how the world will respond the next time there is an Ebola outbreak or some other really deadly disease?
Ten years later and they were still asking in the doctor's office if I had traveled to Africa recently, until Covid hit. I often pointed out to them that much of Africa is thousands of miles from where there were any Ebola cases. I guess it will be decades before we see that kind of public health response again, but I guess people dying of the screaming shits is scarier, though.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

He will be missed. Apparently, not by Fox. They tried to make him into a celebrity and hero back in October, but news sources are reporting that Fox is not reporting the story that he has died of Covid. I am not going to watch Fox to see if that is true or not.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

The anti-mask anti-quarantine people will be demanding quarantine. And the anti-vax people will be demanding a vaccine. Consistency is not their strong point. These days I'm not so sure that they wouldn't scream "fake news" and deny that an epidemic was happening. There are anti-public health nuts denying Covid from their deathbeds.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

I just read that the Canadian Women's Ice Hockey Team defeated the Russians 6-1 while wearing N95 face masks.

I just heard from my grandson, who is in the Red Horse Battalion of the Air Force, stationed on Guam, that he's recovering from a mild case of Covid. He's been in quarantine for more than a week and was fully vaccinated but not boostered yet.

Scientific American has a special issue march 2022. How Covid Changed the World, Lessons from 2 Years of Emergency Science, Upheaval and Loss.
I have only read a couple articles so far, but it is good to see the whole pandemic reported on from many different perspectives and effects. I have had some interesting talks with my 16 year old granddaughter about the impact this has all had on her life. The disruption of her 8th, 9th, and 10th grades in school and her social life has been tremendous. And this is a unique event, in that it affects every other kid on the whole planet and no one living has experienced this type of global catastrophe before. No one, not even the oldest of us has been through it before. The kids seem to get it, they are all having their lives disrupted, all the kids everywhere, share this event.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.
