still not immune

I went to my doctor's office yesterday and had blood drawn for the semi-quantitative covid antibody test. The results came back this morning: no antibodies detected.

That's after three full doses of the Modern vaccine, the most recent one carefully timed relative to my MS medication and the time of day (and a Pfizer booster in November, poorly timed relative to the MS drug).

I will need to continue to be more careful than most people, even though it seems like that those vaccines left me with useful T cells.

(Also, our household's free rapid Covid tests arrived yesterday.)

@lydy made me a hat

This afternoon was the gift-opening/reveal for the Scintillation Groundhog Day gift exchange.

lydy made me a wool hat, which is a wonderful shade of purple and big enough for me: most excellent.

Grace (who is not on DW as far as I know) was very pleased with the gift I sent her, three kinds of washi tape. I hadn't really known what washi tape was until she said it was one of the things she would like, but I looked around on Etsy and found some nice designs from a Canadian seller. (The mail, and customs, were iffy enough when I was shopping that I didn't want to send something from the US to Ontario.) I got an automated email a few weeks ago asking me to rate my purchase, which I can now do.
