I do not know if they realise, that those who do not get vaccinated bear a Signiant responsibility in spreading Covid 19 to others...
No matter their personal reason for not taken same, making them potential life threating carriers, to anyone they cone in to contact with.
It is that serious!

PS., And yes it is still very much a world wide concern however the more we relent to the vaccine... the more chance of less folk from needlessly dying from same.

I got both my vaccinations as soon as I could. I'm much more afraid what the virus could do to me than the vaccine. Thanks to vaccine and masks it's getting a lot better here.
Last year, I remember walking down the street and there being so little traffic, the few people walking all going around each other, practically everything closed even the bank I started wearing a dust mask before I could get some medical masks. March of last year I remember going to the store in the middle of March the Ides of March surprised to see plastic barriers. I remember in the early stages people wearing bandanas and homemade masks over their face then they started getting masks everywhere the dollar store etc. hand sanitizer everybody buying up the toilet paper it was hard to get that for a while I read about people hoarding it and trying to resell it for a profit until they put a limit at the store. If the 1920's were the roaring 20's what are the 2020's so far?

I agree one hundred percent re what to say here Mike...

I may be going to get my 3rd pfitzer. Waiting to hear from my doctor about that. I just had the scare of my life but I trusted God and he got me through it and I did what I had to do. My vaccinated client came down with it and I had to take care of him. I did several 20 hour shifts only home to shower and repack my work bags.not much PPE and had to bring my own. I found I just didn't think too much about catching it but instead concentrated on keeping the place disinfected to the T! Doorknobs, light switches etc. Went through alot of Lysol wipes And Lysol sprays as well as bleach. I made it! That's all I can say lol!

This virus is real and I seen it first hand with the client. The wheezing and heavy breathing, they don't eat, they sleep 24 hours a day practically. Thank the Lord he was vaccinated and received a regenron tx and inhalers and made it through. 2 coworkers as well. One was hospitalized and even after he was able to come back to work 4 months later his lungs will never be the same oxygen and inhalers another coworker same with wheezing and heavy breathing but he came out ok the 2 coworkers were not vaccinated but after their COVID and the doctor okay'd them they went and got the vaccine. For whomever is blowing off this virus as nothing, they have no clue and the people I saw with it were not even in the ICU. It's bad and it's a crap shoot to weather your going to come out ok or not or have long term heath problems the rest of your life. So please mask up, wash hands, carry sanitizer, use disinfecting wipes and Lysol spray. Most importantly... don't be afraid of the vaccine pfitzer and moderna are safe. God Bless all

I very much appreciate your updates Michelle.
Plenty of food for thought in what you have shared. I am so sorry you had to work so hard,... Twenty hour shifts I find mind. boggling Equally having to provide some of your own protective clothing shameful from the point of view of your employer. And yes the pandemic has not gone away despite vaccination. For it is crucial that all folk need to get the jabs to declare a safer environment. And sadly that is not the case, whether, it be here, in your country and across the world.
So pleased you are as thorough as you are when it comes to hygiene, mask wearing and the like. For it is not until everyone is doing likewise, will the world be safe.

Yes David, 20 hour shifts. It was crazy. The boss would come and let me go home to shower and get a little break the. I was going right back.
I guess my OCD about germs and cleanliness pays off in a situation like COVID ya know?
Being that I was not in a hospital I did not wear a gown or shield. But yes a mask and gloves when needed. When I'd come home I would undress on the garage and put my cloths straight into the washer mind you my washer is also in the garage. Then I'd head straight away to the shower.
Thankfully the client slept almost all day in his room for the first 7 days. Then he started getting up here and there for an hour or so and then back to bed. At the end he was coming out to the living room to watch TV. If he touched anything I was right behind him with a Lysol wipe cleaning whatever he touched. I think I went through Bout 7 canisters of Lysol wipes. I bleached his bathtub and his air conditioner filter as well.
All I can say is we made it. Lol

How is COVID playing out in my country? Well, it's running rampant at the present. I have a friend who is in the hospital she was on a respirator. A client had it at the old job, staff and 2 clients at new job, my granddaughters mommy. My grand boys other grandma and grandpa just getting over it. Also an old coworker had covid back in February he just got back to work a couple months ago and relived me at that covid clients house 3 times. Well he died after his third shift over there. He died on the other clients couch while at work. It's really sad.

Hi all, I can relate. An "uncle" of mine family friend died of Covid and I don't know how they can arrange for funeral. His children and grandchildren will surely miss him.

It's still bad over here David. I think I'm becoming numb to it. I'm not stressing myself over it any longer but I will certainly stay safe. It's nothing to play with.
