Signs posted throughout Claremont, California neighborhoods encourage anti-Covid vaccinations.

With the wide availability of Covid-19 vaccines in Southern California, this Bus Test Express (Say that three times fast!) had no test-takers Wednesday afternoon while in the parking lot of a busy Montclair shopping center.

It will only go halfway up your brain :D

I'm a day late for Witchy Wednesday but with a little magic you'll never know it LOL

Today we had to get a Covid 19 test as my hubby will be having surgery Monday (that is if we are Covid free!!!) So my little helpers came to try their skills :D

Stay safe and healthy out there!!!

Testing in the U.S. was always a challenge. Malden tried to provide free rapid tests even before the Federal offers. But supplies could not keep up with demand. So signs went up saying tests were out of stock. (And a smaller sign said face masks were required to enter City Hall.)

No surprise - CHINA :-)

Coronavirus drive-thru testing appointments are offered here. So are the vaccines (Pfizer-Biontec today), likewise by appointment, rather than first-come, first-served basis by walk-in residents. In a few months, perhaps, all of this will be quickly forgotten and most of the old habits will return, dispensing with face masks and buffer of social distancing. Experts warn, though, there will be more pandemics to come as wild creatures are crowded into smaller habitats encroached by humans. Then the quarantines and economic stoppage, social life, and emotional distress on a mass scale will come back into place.
