I read the whole article and learned a few things. I am and have been on quarantine since hip surgery on Feb 3. Except for 1 Dr. appt. (first of the day, for added safety) and Physical Therapy. My MS Neuro called me yesterday and advised quarantine until further notice. Thank you for very informative article on MSAA!

Vietnam vets took a drug preventing malaria every week that my Neuro thinks might still be in my system protecting me from this virus.

I don't know if my hubby received the malaria drug you mentioned or not. He was there 1966-68. He had Covid last August. Horribly ill about 3 weeks, still has some issues. Thank you for your service.

Thank you! Recently an aquaintence passed away and tow seperate families 3 homes apart all have covid. I am saddened when i get an instagram where they are at a huge football game, no mask, no vaccine etc....Heard immunity has added to death and overwhelming hospital medical field and so much pain.
