I went with an epi-pen in my purse. Mr. Boomer has been known to have allergic reactions to certain antibiotics and once to bees, years ago. I knew they would have epi at the site, and we do not normally carry epi, and antibiotics and bee reactions have not been reported as potential issues, but I wanted to be ready anyway so I had him get one for the occasion. It was not needed. (I didn’t really think it would be, but I was in just-in-case mode.) When you fill out the form and report a history of allergic reactions, they have you wait half an hour instead of 15 minutes. He was fine — absolutely fine.

Does having just one shot so far mean that Bill Gates can track me only half the time?
The comment about Bill Gates was truly sharp-witted. Kudos!
