Vaccine does the heavy lifting but it's like using weed-n-feed, still need to do some pulling by hand, when the people who believe in sharing illness are actively doing it

Mind you, I only go to town once a month if at all possible. I also live with my 85 year old mom who is diabetic. I also have some respiratory issues. I wouldn't forgive myself if I brought home Covid to my mom.

Neither of us have gotten it. (knock wood)

I think the best thing about wearing a mask is it makes you conscious of touching your face (eyes). I'm very careful to clean my hands and grocery carts. Try not to touch counters etc. So far, so good.
