COVID-19 Check-In Thread Part III

[Dragonflight]

Still here. My work-related case manager wants me to rearrange my fairly depressing blog site (created to help me deal with depression issues,) to be something positive and upbeat, as a showpiece I can use to find new work. While I understand where she's coming from, I'm not sure I can pull that off. I'm just not inherently upbeat and bouncy by nature.

Medically, life is just ticking along. Nothing new here right now, which is good. My second Covid jab is scheduled for September, but as we get more shots in, I suspect that'll get moved up.

Edit: Oh, in case you've ever wondered why Canada seems to lack the ability to make its own antivirals... Blame Stephen Harper. Back in the 70's, we had one of the best viral research and production laboratories around. Then when Harper rose to power early in this millenium, he sold it off to private interests because he felt maintaining that capacity was a waste of government resources. Fast-forward to the pandemic, and Trudeau authorizing the construction of a huge new antiviral laboratory which we won't have available until years from now. All thanks to King Harper, and his mini-Fascists Scheer, Ford, and O'Toole. (Yes, I hate the Harper legacy, why do you ask?)
