got my shingles vaccine yesterday (first of two). arm is sore and my brain is slow this am. tech said I might experience some 'flu-like' symptoms. not sure if I'd describe it like that, but I do feel... weird. sure beats the heck out getting shingles, tho. my love was afflicted in her 30s and it was hell to watch. get your vaccines, folx.

We went to CVS at lunch and got walk-up appointments to get #COVID, #flu, and #MMR (for #measles) vaccines. We'll be feelin' our arms tonight!

@gorskon is the go-to guy for #antiantivax #snark and uses #MacIntosh so I will ping him and recommend everyone follow him if you are mammalian and susceptible to #virus #infection. Oh, and did we remember to mention #vaccinessavelives ?

In lieu of a standard intro post, which can come later, I am that irrepressible public commentator who stood before the county board of supervisors when SB 277 (vax for K-12) was a hot topic and Ted Liu was beseiged with trolls.

And asked that if Andrew Wakefield set foot in the county he be arrested for reckless endangerment.

Yes he spoke on 2 occasions in California. Arguably the most damaging #medicalfraud in recent memory. #woo I am #antiantivax
