Everyone has a purpose. Some of us serve…as a warning to others in the future.

Comment I posted this in another thread, but it’s applicable here as well:

My own conclusions as a US citizen:

  • Stay up to date on your personal vaccines (annual flu, COVID, and anything age-recommended like shingles, RSV, etc.)
  • Additionally, visit a travel vaccine clinic for any “non-routine” vaccines currently only recommended for travel to Asia, Africa, and Latin America - those threats will be here at some point as well
  • Have some N95 masks
  • Don’t depend on the US government to keep you safe or heathy - you are on your own

If I had to prioritize one vaccine to start with, I would get the Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine first (one adult booster is recommended). Then Polio.

Bless Missouri for always making the best choices to ensure they remain the #50 out the Top #50 states.

What’s the connection between LA and MO? I’m just surprised #50 isn’t MS.
The amount of stupid is mind blowing.

The finding out phase is hard.

Thoughts and prayers, or some useless shit like that.
