Does the vaccine/booster work?
There’ve always been naysayers regarding the COVID vaccine and booster shots, lumped in with the conspiracy theorists. On the other end of the spectrum, there have been the blind followers.

Always stay positive
That’s the only way to think in these times… the numbers keep climbing again, although hospitalizations are not. That’s a good sign amid the negatives of this goddamned COVID not going away…
