Dear Vaccineers,
- Booster seats let you sit at the big kids' table
- Booster clubs help you root for your hometown sports team
- Booster rockets make it possible to escape Earth's rather tenacious gravity well
- Booster pumps deliver drinking water right to your kitchen sink
- Booster bags are used by the discerning shoplifter
- Booster cables fix things when you leave the dome light on too long inside your car
- Booster tanks make it possible to co-exist with teenage hot water hogs
- Booster zombies emit potent fumes that make nearby zekes harder to kill
- Booster vaccines are the way out of this pandemic… or are they?
Boosters have a lot of great uses! Want to hear more about them?
Come to the October meeting of the VDC when Dr. Paul Offit talks to us about booster somethings*….
See you for (virtual) dinner at the Club soon
