A photo you are in
Could be an important historical photo You never know. This is me at Gilroy High school after getting my first covid19 shot. They set up this photo booth for people to mark the occasion
. Many masked people appeared in photos about a century ago during the flu pandemic. Now, young kids can get the vaccine.

At some places they encourage you to, and have a background set up. But they don’t want you to photograph the actual doctors and other people getting shots.

I have seen ones of families during the 1918 flu pandemic where the cat wears a mask as well.

@Aquitaine24 My father was born in 1917, my grandmother always told me about the bad pandemic they went through those years and it happened during WWI, hard times.

Oh, I'm glad you got vaccinated. I believe that getting vaccinated is just in time because covid instances are still on the rise in some areas, and getting vaccinated could shield you from experiencing the severe symptoms that it can cause in anyone who is not protected. However, you should still exercise caution because the infection is still a possibility.

Now the youngest kids aren’t as likely to spread it to others

Oh technically it isn’t but the corner was designated as the selfie corner. The reason for this is because you couldn’t take pictures anywhere else due to privacy concerns.

its weird but my grandparents never mentioned the spanish flu epidemic and what they had to do, might have been handy to be forwarned.
My mother did mention it in passing but she would have been very young at the time or not actually born
