Three family members who have the flu (out of the household). One on meds for pneumonia. Mask up, folks. All had the flu vax. #influenza #flu #health

@ai6yr I read a bit about that, seems the flu virus had an interesting little mutation right after the vaccine strains were selected, so the vaccine is not a good match this year... Masking, masking, masking... Unfortunately I have a teacher, a college student and a highschool student in the house ...

@ai6yr @carstenfranke I'll repeat what I said during covid lockdowns

Wash your hands AND FACE

@autolycos @ai6yr 10 acre farm in the jungle in Belize would work, too.

@carstenfranke @ai6yr local guy I used to do some fencing and irrigation work in high school for did that.

He had about 40 acres of oranges in Belize and wintered there. 1600 acres of cropland and 15000 acres of ranchland in Nebraska and was in Nebraska starting with spring calving and left after fall calving.

Nice guy. Super to work for. Lunch was always salad with a citrus vinaigrette.

@autolycos
Wow, that sounds like a lot of hard farm work.... I was thinking along the lines of "grow a few tomatoes in the winter in Belize, then in the summer in Minnesota." And stay far, far away from people.

@ai6yr

@carstenfranke @ai6yr statistically, Nebraska is a better risk to avoid people

Tomatoes are tough in Belize because parrots are assholes. They grow them in reverse chicken cages.

I wouldn't steer you away from the thought though

@carstenfranke @ai6yr and heyoo!
