also, please wear a mask to your vaccine appointment! remember that the vaccine takes at least two weeks to reach full efficacy, and that vaccines are not a replacement for masking. #wekeepusafe

1 in 25 people have Covid in California right now. please wear a well-fitting respirator (it's never too late to start masking again!), and get the newest vaccine!
