First time in 3 years where it didn't seem like pandemic anymore.
¹i could get jabs for flu & RSV, but not COVID (there's a localized shortage on that one).
My RSV was free under my insurance. The Accomplice's wanted US$300.

b1-67er: Weird. I went to doc the other day, passed on the flu vaccine this time. Will probably start getting it in a few years when my risk is up more.
$300 seems steep, doesn't it?
66: It seems outrageous for an illness that's considered epidemic (and is being warned by the CDC).
Special K: $300 seems criminal. America!
66: Before we went, I figured my drop/take on that jab was US$150...
... And was trying to figure out how I would feel about being hospitalized for passing at $162.50.
(That's backgammon logic, RIGHT THERE.)

Dr. ENT: I got my flu shot, but haven't gotten Covid or RSV yet. Probably should.
b1-67er: I'm amazed how uniformly those tubes fail. Also, the high end stainless they test isn't something I've seen in the US. The Europeans seem to be ahead of the US on high end steel.
