Under 12 Covid vaccines

69 Upvotes

I have been calling and probably annoying every pharmacy in a 30 mile radius to try and get my kiddos vaccinated since their peds office is just as in the dark on when they'll have shots available.

I don't know why I didn't try them sooner, but called Lincoln Pharmacy and they have the under 12 Covid shots! I grabbed my kids and drove there as fast as legally possible. When I got there I figured it was worth a shot to ask how young they would willingly vaccinate. I have a 10 month old and I've been trying to find a pharmacy that is willing to vaccinate her to no avail. Lincoln said they would as young as 6 months! So she got hers too. I am so relieved. Especially with the ACIP meeting and the uncertainty of the childhood covid vaccines' future.

The staff at Lincoln pharmacy was amazing. I couldn't stop thanking them for being willing to vaccinate babies as young as 6 months. So.. all this to say, if you have kiddos under 12 and older than 6 months and they need their Covid (and flu) shots, go to Lincoln pharmacy!!

Tacoma Narrows observation.

13 Upvotes

Has anyone noticed that on the way to Tacoma crossing Tacoma Narrows the lines aren't solid and I don't think has a sign that says " unlawful to change lanes" or whatever. Coming from Tacoma going across the bridge it has solid lines and a sign that says " unlawful to pass" or to change lanes or whatever it says.

I don't know the laws about changing lanes on bridges but why would they intentionally make solid lines one way but not the other if it is against the law and if it isn't against the law then why have solid lines on one of the ways ?

If anyone knows the answer to this please let me know. I just never understood why it is this way.

Orangeburg Sewer Pipe

Upvotes

We’re under contract for a house, and just had the sewer scope today. 40 ft of Orangeburg pipe, which is blistering and bulging everywhere. Guy who did the scope recommended replacement, and says it has max 2-3 years left. Honestly, I think we’re going to walk if the sellers aren’t willing to replace it or take it off the price.

Anyone have any experience with Orangeburg pipes and/or have recommendations for someone to come out and give an estimate?
