When is your 8 months since second dose date? Mine is the day after Thanksgiving.
Mine would be mid-November. But maybe I will give CVS a try before then, given the stories about it being easy enough, with no need to fib. I can look up which drugstores have the vaccine on any particular day.

The location is at the bottom of a narrow canyon.
The more I reflect on it, the more I suspect a big bunch of carbon dioxide flowing down the canyon, since it is denser than air. I have no idea if there is or was an active fire uphill from where it happened.
What we know so far Police are responding to claims of suspected explosives in a vehicle near the US Capitol, calling it an "active bomb threat investigation." Authorities on the scene are negotiating with the suspect, according to two law enforcement sources.

Note on the last thread.

DeleteI was checking AirNow.
DeleteIs there a better source?
Probably it is just a matter of where the monitor is located. I looked just now (8AM) and they are reporting 151. So no walking this morning.
