Nearly a month later, Dad gets his CATH out tomorrow. She sounded great today on the phone. He is ready to put this behind him.

But he's really pi$$ed about two things:

1) Each and every treating physician confirmed that the vaccine exacerbated his condition, and..

2) He read this: Scientists don't know jack about COVID or Vaccines
There is no evidence the vaccine causes UTIs or makes them worse. But there is evidence an untreated UTI can get worse. Getting the vaccine at the same time an an untreated UTI was probably coincidence.

I was thrilled to get the vaccine and so is everyone I know. It will be nice to get our lives back.

Teachers got moved ahead of everyone because their union makes massive campaign contributions to politicians, almost exclusively Democrats. Payback time.

The masks are permanent and are designed to be. The masks never come off.

Why were we told that those 65 and older would be getting the vaccine first????????????? Why are people much younger getting to cut in line????????
Because they want to open schools. It’s a vital step towards returning to normalcy. Every child at home keeps their parents from attending work. You (and I) can wait a few more days.

Teachers unions have other plans.

Nonsense. Schools need to get opened. Without vaccines that won’t happen. Every student at home, keeps the adults from returning to work. The delay for people like us is just a couple of weeks.

Huh? Unions won’t let open schools even after teachers have been vaccinated? Don’t think so.
