    Do you know if these are drive up appointments, like last year? Or do you have to go inside?

      I just got a little more info from the Visiting Nurses Association, adding as soon as I get a chance, multitasking like mad at the moment. Indoors.

    Anyone know where I can get a fake ID for a ten year old? Kidding! (Mostly.)

    I noticed King County has adjusted the vaccination rates down for the West Seattle zip codes. For example, 98116 was at 86.2% fully vaccinated on Sunday. Now it is 85.5% who have completed the series.

    I just heard the reason for having them inside (just inside the doors, really) is that last year so many of the SVNA nurses and school nurses helping out at the tents got completely soaked and were miserable because of downpours on some of the clinic days.  Given that rain is expected this weekend, that seems reasonable!

Sorry, comment time is over.
