Subject: RE: BS: OK Folks, It's Flu Shot Time
COVID Omicron today -- the bivalent one. I'll book the flu shot while I'm there.

I get all the needles on offer, every year. It's working; so far, I've dodged the COVID bullet and I haven't had flu since 1983. I've had two pneumonia shots, although I still get the disease if I catch a cold and let the inevitable ensuing bronchitis go untreated for more than a day or two. Since bronchitis is a very obvious ailment (you can hear me coughing in the next township), I consider pneumonia the next-best thing to to a self-inflicted wound.
