Jan 2021

My wife is a Paramedic and cancer patient, she just got her 2nd shot. She also just got over covid late November and I had to take her into ER to get a steroid shot because of breathing issues. She is high risk for 2 reasons.

I am 51, no underlying conditions and very healthy, covid was an extremely weak cold for me. I also took care of her for 2 weeks and sucked in a heavy viral load and my immunity held.

I want everyone who is like my wife or anyone that is not as healthy as me to get their shots first. I wear a mask, take all the precautions but am not overly worried about catching it again. I can wait for supply to be plentiful, worried about others getting theirs.
