I haven't heard of any particular problem with LD sufferers but she's got enough going on that she doesn't need anything else to make her feel worse physically.
Same here. The site we went to was one of the "mass vaccination" sites set up by the state. It was located in a very large shopping mall and although we're also experiencing growing numbers of Covid again in this state, the parking lot and garage were packed full of cars. We didn't go into the mall itself but my dd did the day before when she was looking for the vaccination site. She said she felt very uncomfortable with the number of people inside the mall itself; it was way too crowded. I get that people are tired of being cooped up. I just wish they could/would tough it out a little longer so we could stop going through these surge cycles.
How ironic, people don't want to be cooped up so they go somewhere that is over crowded and they have a harder time to move around and no fresh air, just like a chicken in a chicken coop.
When I feel cooped up I head to the nature and go for a walk with my kids, free range.
