Hi Hank, that would be great but I keep reading about the large percentage of people polled who do not want and refuse to get the vaccine (30-50%). We need a higher percentage of vaccinated in order to achieve herd immunity. Helen

Hi Hank. Thanks, Im glad to be in a warmer climate. I don’t mind the occasional cold spell with temperatures nearing freezing here. Covering a few plants is not a bad price to pay considering what others were going through in subzero temperatures and snowstorms.

I did think about the vaccines and decided against it for now since not much is known about the coronavirus or the vaccines. My risks are very low for contracting the virus being I stay at home most of the time. I go out once a week to the grocery store. I don’t want to chance a worse health condition whether permanent or not. We don’t really know how much immunity we will get or for how long. I question immunity because with the vaccination(s) we will still need to keep our social distance and wear masks. Some people get the illness and show no symptoms. How does that effect us seeing our families? Nothing is really different with the exception the symptoms of COVID-19 will likely be less severe. I believe receiving the vaccine is a personal choice. Everyone is different with their risks for getting the disease and their health condition. Just like with any medication a person needs to see if his/her benefits outweigh the risks. Who is to say what is best to do? No one really knows.
I hope Linda is finally doing better with her neuropathy pain. I am glad other members reported their neuropathy pain has returned to normal after being vaccinated for the Coronavirus. Hope you both are doing well. Toni.
