Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.
No questions asked.
No proof required.
Pass it on.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have revealed a synthetic glycosystem -a sugar-coated polymer nanoparticle- that can BLOCK SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells, REDUCING infection rates by NEARLY 99%. Acting as a decoy, the molecule BINDS to the spike protein, PREVENTING it from attaching to real cells.

Many studies the last 3 years used data from early in the pandemic b4 people were vaxxed—making it possible for many 2 comfortably dismiss the results. A new study—from May ‘20 to Jan. ‘23 on subjects infected b4 & after vaccination—finds vaccines alone don’t prevent COVID-related brain damage.
