Thanks He's having kidney issues, but I'm reading that's normal in about 50% of covid cases that require hospitalization.

Good news, my brother is getting out of the hospital today. He hates doctors, hospitals, anything medical so this has been a real panic-attack-24/7 for him. Doctor said no diet dr pepper and drink water to help his kidneys recover. Seems that about 50% of people hospitalized with covid develop kidney problems, and his high blood pressure and habit of drinking about a gallon of diet dr pepper a day aren't helping.

There were two Covid deaths in our county yesterday. First since June. One man, one woman. Both were over 70 and unvaccinated. Had the Delta variant. I'm in Santa Cruz County, CA, BTW.

lani , That is terrible news. Wonder why they decided not to get vaccinated. Probably listened to what the media seems to be calling "misinformation", AKA LIES.

Starting Friday masks will be required indoors for everyone no matter your vaccination status because of the surge of COVID cases. Went out to breakfast with a friend but this will be the last time until the number of cases calm down. We go at 10:30 so the restaurant isn't crowded at that time and we leave before the lunch crowd comes in.

More and more places where I am are starting to require masks again, regardless of vaccination status. We started wearing them more indoors awhile ago, mostly in crowded areas. Some places also require proof of vaccination. The two I can think of are a really nice spa that I go to and the Lensic Theater. We see the Santa Fe Symphony at the Lensic. I found that badge holders work really well for holding my vaccine card. In fact they are starting to be marketed that way.
