Earlier today I stopped by the office of a really nice colleague - a medical doctor

She is a brilliant second generation doctor who specialized in geriatric medicine.
She was a regular in our walking group, but she's been missing for a few months. I went to wish her seasons greetings, because she has been over-worked since Covid and I also know she's been looking after a very sick family member.
We laughed about a few things and talked about this and that including the boosters which are available from next week.
She noticed a plaster on my left little finger and asked me abut it. I stuck the finger with a splinter while gardening on Sunday and washed it in peroxide. The finger started hurting yesterday so I repeated the peroxide wash and then spread some Neosporin. She then asked when last I took antibiotics (at least seven years ago) and suggested that I take a five day dose as she didn't like the swelling.

Before I left I asked her if I should come for the booster next week after taking the antibiotics.
She said absolutely not - do not take the booster shot or any other dose of a Covid 19 vaccine while taking an antibiotic. She suggested that I take the 3rd jab no earlier than a week after completing the antibiotics.

So DUers if you are taking antibiotics for anything, double check with your doctor about the timing of your vaccine.

colleague usually refers to co-worker or peer.  Is the DUmmy trying to claim she is a medical doctor as well?

Running the vacuum at night doesn't count as calling others in the office colleagues?
