The most important facts for you to remember today: Less than 0.001% of those fully vaccinated have had a fatal breakthrough case. Less than 0.004% of those fully vaccinated have been hospitalIzed. The vaccines work. The vaccines are your best protection from the virus.

@MrsCorrad0 Really looking forward to spring for this reason! I’m sure all compliments were deserved!
