Hopefully there is less traffic around to be inconvenienced. We are in the middle of the fall road work season. And, looking ahead to our second “pandemic winter”, the Atlantic offers six rules that can guide our thinking through the seasons to come.

“On the therapy front, two innovations caught my eye, 1) a breakthrough DNA vaccine from India heralds a new wave because it is administered into the skin without an injection - and 2) several antiviral pills advance to late stage trials, determining if they can stop infection early enough to prevent hospitalization. But do you need a booster? Is immunity waning? Nature magazine summarizes the situation.
Barron’s reports that Moderna is on the verge of gaining approval for a booster jab Pfizer did so 2 weeks ago commentary from NIH and other sources is here: and in a video podcast. Axios’ Covid dashboard highlights related national and international news. For an updated scenario, once again, please check out the Mayo Clinic’s tracker link and play with the slider bar to watch the progression of Covid’s invasion throughout Maine over the last three months. “The graphic from last month’s newsletter was an attention grabber. Useful (but tiresome) advice remains ‘protect yourself’. The 7-day average hospitalization rate of 20 in September matches the figure from April and is trending towards the 30 peak realized in January. The transmission rate also has spiked non-immunized people here remain at high risk. “For Lincoln County, the weighted average of new cases has increased 35% from 2 weeks ago, and stands at 18 cases per day, well above the peaks of January and April close to 1500 new cases are on record over the last 12 months. Regardless of what we make of them, the numbers are both incontrovertible and discouraging. Please do not park along Route 32: try one of the other trails in town if the LaVerna car park is full.Īlfred writes: “Many of us, at times myself included, have become inured to dire warnings about Covid, even as it creeps along at a steady pace claiming victims in our own back yard.
#Laverna nature preserve full
The LaVerna Preserve, whose magnificent shoreline I think of as our own miniature Acadia Park, often has a full car park on sunny weekend days. The Preserve is in large part the gift of George Keyes of Waldoboro, who for years was the Trail Steward of the Bristol Recreational Trail behind the school.
The trail, roughly a mile long from Poor Farm Road to the Pemaquid River, is located between the Farm Woods Road and Woods Road turnoffs from Poor Farm – these private roads are to the left on the right, between them, is a woods road with a chain across it, used by CMP for access to their power line – this is the start of the trail, and you can park here. You might want to wait until the trail is properly blazed, later in the month when the fall colors will be at their peak. The preserve is open to the public, although trail guides and a kiosk with map are still in the works. The map will soon be updated to show the ninth and latest, at the new Keyes Woods Preserve off Poor Farm Road. Bristol is lucky to have no less than nine walking trails on preserves maintained by the Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust. As Covid continues to limit the number of activities available (see October Notice Board, page 4), hiking in beautiful fall weather will be more popular than ever.
