As soon as emergency use is over, have them talk to the pediatrician about off-label use. It's worth a try if there is a decent reason for it to happen before the Fall, when the 2-11 year olds are likely to be approved.

He lives in a very remote area, but since his parents and all the adults he knows are vaxed he wants in on the action. He does have asthma, so his mother might discuss it with his doctor.

It's turned chilly, so it might be a little while before they're out in force.

I was talking to someone from California and this will be his first cicada, um, experience. I wish him well.

Well, my doctor did not yell at me. He also didn’t even ask me about my last period... My liver levels are slightly elevated, so I think I need to stop drinking as much as I have over the pandemic. But it also may be related to my diabetes, which is still controlled with a normal A1C, which frankly shocked me, because I have been eating some chips. I was so anxious, I had really high blood pressure that went down after he didn’t yell at me.

He was glad I was getting out of the house and feeling better, so we will reassess my mental health at our next visit. I also have to have a liver ultrasound to make sure I don’t have a tumor.

I don't remember which cat, but that *was* one of the gifts they could leave you on Neko Atsume. So that's nice, I guess.

We randomly had a few cicadas (in SD) a few years back. It was a very "WTF is making that noise?!?" experience.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I just saw my first cicada husk.

My brother in NoVa just reported he spotted a cicada flying by earlier today.

ION, yesterday I saw my first hummingbird of the season here northeast of KCMO.

"Brood VII is the smallest periodical cicada brood in the U.S., and is isolated in the Finger Lakes area of New York State. This cicada has a 17-year life cycle. Sadly, Brood VII will likely be the next Brood to go extinct. Brood VII will return in 2035."
