I went all online (we had a choice) - most of my students were not coming into the building and if we used a classroom, we had to be masked.

My father was vaccinated pretty early on; he's in assisted living and the pharmacy went to them. My sister is over 65 and has finished both vaccines just in the last week. I was early mainly because I was determined to get my husband the vaccine because I knew if he got COVID, he was going to be severely ill, and I signed myself up at the same time because I also qualify with health issues. As fast as I was, I wasn't fast enough to help him. Even with one vaccine, he has now been in the hospital over a month (probably was positive when he got the first vaccine and we didn't know it).
I will say my one vaccine seems to have kept me from getting nearly as sick as my husband or my son, so I do think it made a difference for me. Even though I still got COVID between vaccinations, I was much less ill than they were, and I have health conditions that could have landed me in the hospital for a lengthy period like my husband. Husband is now in the intermediate care unit - step between ICU and regular room. I am guessing they will move him back to the long-term acute care hospital at some point this week, but I'm okay if they take their time. I don't want him to end up in another medical crisis and have to be placed back in ICU. This has been such a nightmare of a month. |

The mask is a pain. In my lecture voice mode, it slips around and I have to keep pulling it back up. It doesn't do that in normal conversation with it on, I must move my jaw more when lecturing.

I had trouble sucking the mask into my mouth when lecturing- I think I must get animated.

I had to try quite a few different masks before I could find one that I didn't have that problem with. My masks are almost along the lines of a singer's mask so that I can project my voice without sucking in my mask. It took some definite trial and error to land upon the right one for the job.

The second-year students had the option of attending in-person or online. I got tired of talking to 1-4 people in person, so I moved it all online. It works fine for us. It's not ideal, but it's workable. __________________ "I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers which can't be questioned." --Richard Feynman |

And the classroom mics are terrible here too. Does the Deluxe SD action figure come with a wooden stake and a silver bullet? |

2. The wooden stake and silver bullets would be tucked inside the squirrel suit, I imagine. __________________ Please NO @ Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.
