Gratitude - message from Lucy Liaw



I am late in sharing some of the community gratitude that came in for February. Since then, in conversations with colleagues and friends, many others have come up. There is a lot of gratitude for the healthcare workers who are working under strained conditions, all of our public-facing businesses for developing creative ways to serve their communities, kind people who are offering to help and thinking of others, leaders of coordinated efforts, our own health, and many, many more. 

You might be alone right now. You might have felt anxiety or uncertainty in the past days. 
Take a deep breath. 
And another. 
Please think of something that you are grateful for, and share it in the comment box if you would like.

Be well, Lucy

At the very end are links to references with more information, in order by topic as they appear below.   Last week, the US FDA and US CDC issued approvals and recommendations for the updated fall 2023 COVID-19 vaccine. Everyone 6 months of age and older is recommended to receive the updated COVID-19 vaccine as well as an annual influenza vaccine. Both vaccines are updated and formulated to protect against the strains that are circulating and/or predicted to circulate this fall and winter.   One of the main lessons we’ve learned from the pandemic has been the importance of taking some simple steps during respiratory viral season, which is the fall and winter, when we more commonly see influenza, RSV, and other respiratory viruses.   Although we don’t fully know if COVID-19
