New Jersey had another big jump. At least now we're hearing concern being expressed in Trenton. The health department is calling this a second wave. I'm not sure about that.

Bergen County had a big jump as well. 

So I went and got my flu shot. I then had a sore arm for two days. I still don't feel 100% OK but it also got a bit colder and that shoulder is famous for giving me issues in the cold. I did dislocate it three times and had to have surgery. I imagine if a doctor ever got a look at it I'd be in trouble.
