PARKING.
PARKING. WHAT DOES IT ENTAIL WHEN YOU
COME FOR YOUR VACCINE?

ELECTRONIC SYSTEM RIGHT NOW

COMPLETELY NORMAL HUT COMES TO
THIS VACCINATION?
THIS VACCINATION? >> SO RIGHT AFTER YOU GET THE
SHOT, SOME PEOPLE DO FEEL KIND
OF WARM OR TINGLY.
THAT MAY BE -- PART OF THAT MAY
BE NERVES AND PART OF IT MAY BE
THE SHOT.
THE SHOT.
THE SHOT. THAT IS NOT UNCOMMON.
E IT IS PRETTY COMMON TO HAVE
SOME PAIN IN THE INJECTION
SIGHT, A LITTLE BIT OF
DEFICIENCY OR MAYBE SOME ACHES.

VARIANTS OF COVID DISCUSSIONS.
WHAT DOUGH WE REALLY NEED TO
KNOW?
KNOW?
KNOW? >>
KNOW? >> SO THE FIRST THING TO NOTE
IS THAT IT IS VERY NORMAL FOR
VIRUSES TO CHANGE AND MUTATE.
THINK ABOUT THE -- THAT IS WHY
WE HAVE TO GET A DIFFERENT FLU
SHOT EVERY YEAR BECAUSE THE FLU
CHANGES CONSTANTLY.
CHANGES CONSTANTLY. SO THIS IS NOT A NEW OR SCARY
THING, BUT UNIQUE TO COVID ALL
VIRUSES DO THIS.
AND THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THE
MUTATIONS FOR THE VARIANTS THAT
HAVE BECOME RELATIVELY COMMON
AND THE ONE WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT A LOT RIGHT NOW IS THE #

UK AND HAS BEEN FOUND IN THE
UNITED STATES INCLUDING NOW IN
KENTUCKY.
KENTUCKY.
KENTUCKY. SO MOST OF THE VARIANTS HAVE
BEEN FOUND TO MEET MORE
TRANSMISSIBLE WHICH MEANS IT IS
MORE CONTAGIOUS.
MORE CONTAGIOUS. BUT IF YOU GET THE INFECTION,
IT DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE MORE
SEVERE OR MORE DEADLY THAN THE
OTHER VERSION THAT WE HAVE COME
TO KNOW HERE IN THE UNITED
STATES.
STATES.

KEEP UP THE DATA ON THOSE KINDS
OF THINGS.
OF THINGS. BECAUSE I THINK A LOT OF US

WHETHER IT IS FROM WATCHING
TELEVISION.

MEDIA.

IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO FIND A
TRUSTED SOURCE.

INTERNET DOESN'T NECESSARILY
MEAN IT IS TRUE.
