❗️HARD FACT—vaccines *do not* turn you into zombies. The zombie apocalypse movie “I am Legend” has spawned a #COVID19 vaccine conspiracy. The movie’s screenwriter @AkivaGoldsman even weighs in. Let’s rethink future Hollywood zombie movie plots? Thanks from this epidemiologist. 🙏 https://t.co/uAX3JoEvKU pic.twitter.com/skTzhXD2o7

“I don’t know what’s in the vaccine, and I’m not putting it in my body and letting the government use it to track me. Meanwhile excuse me while I post on Facebook and use my cellphone to Uber Eats some of this good-good to my house for dinner…” https://t.co/TyP0FV2jXp pic.twitter.com/eBNNBnfFGA

Florida has now (with a vaccine readily available) officially surpassed New York’s 2020 hospitalization peak (when a vaccine didn't even exist).

LOL Love the Charlie Brown/Lucy cartoon!
Since Lousiana is in the lead on this 4th wave, and our governor is not a science-denier and is trying everything to get us on the path to recovery, I keep sharing this info with you so you can see what may be coming to a state near you. I seriously hope it doesn’t because it’s a royal mess here. People can’t get into hospitals.
