The W line is dubbed the "Waste Line" by New Yorker's, considered largely a useless route.

For my high risk kiddo, I was thrilled to be able to get her in 2 days after approval was announced. She’s now fully vaccinated and I feel much, much better - esp. with omicron now being what it is.News today: "Fewer than 15% of U.S. children aged 5-11 have been fully vaccinated since Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and BioNTech's COVID-19 shot was authorized for that age group in late October, federal data shows."
I find this info interesting. It's been 2 months, and I was expecting parents to be rushing their kids to get vaccinated, but apparently, both sides (for or against vaccination) are not into getting their young kids vaccinated.
COVID-19 hospitalization surge among U.S. children spurs new Omicron concerns
Within weeks, the Omicron variant has fueled thousands of new COVID-19 hospitalizations among U.S. children, raising new concerns about how the many unvaccinated Americans under the age of 18 will fare in the new surge.

Interestingly our ped stated they had personally given about 33% of all patients in that age group a shot. That did not include those who went elsewhere (and just reported vaccine info later). I am curious if that means some areas nearly have no kids vaccinated then. Given how it spread in the grade schools before break I wouldn't be shocked if people thought kids were now covered.News today: "Fewer than 15% of U.S. children aged 5-11 have been fully vaccinated since Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and BioNTech's COVID-19 shot was authorized for that age group in late October, federal data shows."

I’ve been watching those numbers also, the only logical answer is a lot of vaccinated parents are doing a risk assessment and deciding the risk to their kids is low enough they don’t need the vaccine.News today: "Fewer than 15% of U.S. children aged 5-11 have been fully vaccinated since Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and BioNTech's COVID-19 shot was authorized for that age group in late October, federal data shows."

Probably first dose compared to fully vaccinated.
I live in the deep south. When I shared on my community, and school pages, the announcement about children's vaccine's being approved, I was almost virtually beaten off the boards. I didn't even state whether they should or shouldn't do it, I said I was simply sharing the information for those that might not have known. The reaction was extraordinarily violent.News today: "Fewer than 15% of U.S. children aged 5-11 have been fully vaccinated since Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and BioNTech's COVID-19 shot was authorized for that age group in late October, federal data shows."

Don't think so based on their post and when it was. They were only doing their own patients though and scheduled both privately for parents (no clinics this time). I do have a very pro-vaccination office. To the point that they say if you do not want to follow the recommendations, that you should go elsewhere. They not insane about it. Like in 2019 we delayed the HPV shot simply because we had scheduled a day of decent labor with setting up a tree lot the day after and the HPV shot is known for fever and a lot of pain. They said no big to wait a few months as there is a range of years they suggest, so holding off was still on schedule. And then the pandemic hit and it was deemed not essential visit so we just did it a year later (no conflict with tree lot that year). So I would expect a very pro-vaccine office to be super high compared to average. That might mean some places have nearly zero. Given some counties in my state had less than 20% of all adults I shouldn't be shocked.
Huh. Interesting. I stopped taking it when it actually would make me feel nauseous in addition to coughing. Bad combination lolResults from a 2014 study by the Virginia Commonwealth University's Department of Pediatrics demonstrated Guaifenesin had no effect as a either mucolytic or expectorant when compared to a placebo.[26] The results of this study were consistent with other published studies showing that Guaifenesin is not an effective medication for treating acute respiratory tract infections.[27]

I never take the subway. When I have to go to my Doctor at NYU, I walk from my home to the SI Ferry and then walk from Battery Park to NYU and do the same on the way home. I remeber at the start of Covid carefully crossing the street to avoid the covid testing sites. Walking outside in the fresh air is not only safe, provided you aren't in crowds, and is great exercise. Stay safe.

Just curious why you specifically mentioned BinaxNow? Are they suggesting these specific rapid home tests cannot detect Omicron? Wife and I both came down with cold like symptoms so we both took the rapid tests we had and both of us tested negative.
The odd thing is the graph was per 100,000… something is off with those numbers, maybe it was looking at totals rather than per 100,000 and was labeled wrong.
