until or if there is a surge in the Austin area. At present we are in a decline.

But remember, it takes a couple of weeks for it to reach it’s peak effectiveness. Balancing act.

waiting until flu season has ‘officially’ started before getting the shot in order to extend protection later in the season. With COVID-19 resurgent, however, I want to be ready ASAP.

We don't expose ourselves much so hoping that things will mellow out soon. I expect a surge from SXSW and Spring break crowds but so far not that bad. And with temps getting so damn hot so early maybe we can escape a near-term surge here in Central Texas.
