Meantime, stay safe by avoiding non-essential travel, dining at home, exercising outdoors, shopping on-line, and streaming entertainment. Continue working remotely and maintaining personal hygiene by distancing, hand washing, and masking. Improve indoor air quality at your home and office by ventilating with outdoor air and using UV air cleaners. Check the status of the vaccine rollout in your state and it’s impact on herd immunity. Learn how to winter another Covid Winter. Find a vaccination center using AARP’s state-by-state directory. Read articles about life after vaccination, Covid’s future as an endemic, and long-term health problems caused by Covid. Consult resources at Covid websites maintained by the CDC, Mayo Clinic, NIH, WebMD, and WHO.
