I have read that it has become sort of an "accepted" definition to be
second cousins since so many people worded it like that - but
technically she was my first cousin once removed. In other words, her
dad and I were first cousins but then she was one more generation
"removed" from me. She and my sons would technically be second cousins
since they are the same generation - twice removed from grandparents'
generation (I think).

Thank you Karen, I’m sorry to hear about your cousin (can’t figure out how that works 2^nd cousin?) I just hope that this vaccine program gets more efficient so we can look forward to living again! Jane

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...

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!!
