Flu is rising around the country, but Louisiana is well ahead of the curve.

    Everyone has a purpose. Some of us serve…as a warning to others in the future.

    Comment I posted this in another thread, but it’s applicable here as well:

    My own conclusions as a US citizen:

    • Stay up to date on your personal vaccines (annual flu, COVID, and anything age-recommended like shingles, RSV, etc.)
    • Additionally, visit a travel vaccine clinic for any “non-routine” vaccines currently only recommended for travel to Asia, Africa, and Latin America - those threats will be here at some point as well
    • Have some N95 masks
    • Don’t depend on the US government to keep you safe or heathy - you are on your own

    If I had to prioritize one vaccine to start with, I would get the Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine first (one adult booster is recommended). Then Polio.

    Bless Missouri for always making the best choices to ensure they remain the #50 out the Top #50 states.

      What’s the connection between LA and MO? I’m just surprised #50 isn’t MS.

    The finding out phase is hard.

    Thoughts and prayers, or some useless shit like that.
