@Courtzilla For sure, potentially there’s even some benefit in heterologous boosting (mixing) eg see nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… but for this rollout the mRNAs have both changed anyway so I don’t think it matters

@Courtzilla Hugs, so sorry, sending good vibes your way 💕

For those who want to donate to Pajaro flood evacuees, our partner at ALL IN Monterey County is collecting and distributing necessary items. Here are the most needed items.

@CeliaVJimenez Excellent question. And where is the federal and state aid (new $ for flood victims, not covid relief from last year)? And why wasn’t levee maintenance prioritized in the first place? mercurynews.com/2023/03/21/opi…

Also the Latino man said this in Spanish and compared the declaration Santa Cruz County recieved in January.

The million dollar question: Why Pajaro hasn't been declared a disaster? Is it becuase we are only Hispanics? #PajaroRiver @potus @GavinNewsom. A man asked that in Spanish. (the wording may not be 100 accurate but the meaning is.)
