Jane, I'm sorry for what your cousin's wife has had to go through - and
will continue to - but good news that she is progressing. I just lost
a relative to COVID at age 61 - her dad was my first cousin. Scary
scary thing...

Sounds like it will be a long wait for a vaccine for our age group everywhere. According to
our state “Crush Covid”, website this week medical staff, hospital workers, first
responders, prisoners & staff, clinic staff, nursing home residents & staffs &
the city of Central Falls residents are being done! We need another manufacturer to get
approval. There is a shortage everywhere. Surely there is some company willing to make
syringes too! I was surprised that one city gets to be first, but their positivity rate is
30%! I’ll be pissed I’d i find out it’s because they weren’t following the rules!!
75 and up is the next group. CVS & Walgreens are gearing up to do more than just
nursing homes so I hope that means they’ll do an appointment system like they are doing
for testing & have done for flu shots.
My cousin’s wife in NE has been in ICU on a vent for 5 weeks with Covid. Good news she
came off the ventilator yesterday! She had a tracheotomy & has a long way to go,
but good news. The virus attacked her bowel & has an illeostomy. Poor thing. She’s
71.
Stay well everyone & be patient! Jane
