From Jeff Childers

The wife and I were reviewing our hurricane preplist yesterday and I couldn’t shake this nagging feeling that I was overlooking something. Something … important. Something big. What could it be? “Honey, what are we forgetting?” We had gas, batteries, water… Then I saw Joe Biden, emerging out of the Internet’s glowing mists, with a timely reminder:

Vaccination! The most important part of hurricane preparedness! Of COURSE. How could we have forgotten vaccination? We felt so stupid.

Well, SOMEBODY should feel that way. Here’s what Biden said, decide for yourself: “Let me be clear. If you’re in a state where hurricanes often strike like Florida or the Gulf Coast or into Texas, a vital part of preparing for hurricane season is to get vaccinated. Everything is more complicated if you’re not vaccinated in a hurricane or natural disaster hits,” Biden advised.*

Fortunately, Florida’s governor tweeted yesterday that the state will still help unvaccinated people like Michelle and me.
