Fully vaccinated at 20 weeks AOG
After serious work of literature review as demonstrated by several journal readings and visits to legitimate websites, rundown of cohort studies and data published by different health institutions, consultations with medical professionals, streaming hours of vaccine safety related content, and talks with close family and friends, I have finally decided to get the COVID-19 vaccine. While I have been proactively encouraging people to get the vaccine by sharing its benefits via my Facebook account,  I had been ironically hesitant to get one due to my active pregnancy. And I probably share the same reluctance as many pregnant women all over the world especially that no one for sure, knows the long-term effects of the vaccine. Finally, on September 19 and October 17, I received my first and second doses of Pfizer BioNTech - Comirnaty, respectively. I thank the organizers behind the Vaccination for Pregnant and Lactating Women at The Peak, Gaisano Mall - Stella Maris Academy of Davao Alumni Association (SMADAA) for doing "One Good Jab"! It was morale-boosting to see mostly-pregnant women who came to the site together with their partners during the first and second-dose schedule of vaccination (btw, don't forget to thank your husband for the support, especially that this must have not also been an easy decision on their part).

 

What made me do it? Two primary reasons.  

1. To protect myself,  my son and the upcoming baby

When my husband tested positive for SARS-COV-2 virus in July, I was deeply worried that my son and I might have also contracted the virus, it was mentally exhausting...fortunately though, we both tested negative. While it could mean that we’re probably immune or maybe, we just did well in exercising safety protocols upon learning my husband’s results, I knew that the natural immunity or the strict COVID management could not protect us until only-God-knows-for-how-long-this-pandemic-would-last. There is just one clear and plausible solution — to get vaccinated.

Based on the studies, pregnant women have been observed with higher risk of developing severe COVID-19, compared with non-pregnant women[1], even worse that the latest data published by UK Obstetric Surveillance System (UKOSS) show that most pregnant women admitted to hospital in need of ventilation and intensive care admission were progressively caused by the Delta variant[2].

There were Facebook posts shared publicly citing the OB isolation scenes and reported surge at the Southern Philippines Medical Center (SPMC), which almost paralleled with what was happening in hospitals from other countries, battling with this new and more dangerous COVID variant (see screenshots below). 



A similar spike in trend has been observed in children with the Delta variant[3], although referencing the data published, the number of pediatric cases is generally fewer compared with the case count in adults. This observation would not however, assure me as a parent that my son is ultimately protected from severe illness caused by the virus, apparently, the only way to do that (since the vaccine administration on kids is currently pending review) is to surround him with fully vaccinated people[4]. Thankfully, my immediate family (parents, sister, bro-in-law) and my husband have already been fully vaccinated, so my vaccination should help complete my son’s circle of defense especially that we are the ones whom he interacts with the most. 

Like any other vaccines administered to pregnant women for Influenza and Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Tdap), research on COVID-19 shots further shows "that the antibodies produced by vaccination cross the placenta and may provide some protection to newborn babies[5]". If you are a bit terrified by the crossing the placenta phrase, check out this video to help you understand what this actually means. Indeed through the vaccine, I would be likely providing immunity to my baby as soon as he or she comes out—knowing that the hospital might not be the safest place to welcome a newborn in this unfortunate time. There are other resources you can examine further like whether the messenger RNA (mRNA) could harm the fetus or even alter the mom's and baby's genetic code (just because DNA and mRNA share those NAs, it does not mean that they are the same). Personally, I have never been this schooled about this new vaccine type until I had to do personal research on its safety. You can learn more about them through the Youtube playlist that I have prepared on Pregnancy and COVID vaccines here. 

 

 

Moreover, the vaccine effectiveness has been significantly confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), providing protection against COVID-19[6]. Locally, the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) has published confirmed case profile relative to the vaccination status, showing no fully vaccinated have been critically intubated.

 

 

2. Strongly recommended for pregnant women by medical institutions and practitioners (in other words, COVID-19 vaccines are generally safe!)

“As the leading organizations representing experts in maternal care and public health professionals that advocate and educate about vaccination, we strongly urge all pregnant individuals – along with recently pregnant, planning to become pregnant, lactating and other eligible individuals – to be vaccinated against COVID-19.” This was the joint statement between at least 20 different medical organizations, including the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) on the vaccination of pregnant women against the disease[7]. In the Philippines, the Department of Health (DOH) recently listed pregnant women under the expanded A3 priority group or Persons with Comorbidities, adding that the vaccines are generally safe for these individuals[8]. These references, along with the medical clearance obtained from my OB-GYN and common advice given by other practitioners I have watched on Youtube, all point to the fundamental principle that there is no way that these people, or institutions, would harm the pregnant women or the unborn babies, it is just illogical and unethical.

Further, it is interesting to note that as of October 12, 2021, there were 166,153 V-safe registry participants who reported that they were pregnant at the time of vaccination[9]. The said registry aims to “collect health information from people who received COVID-19 vaccination in the periconception period (within 30 days before last menstrual period) or during pregnancy”. Although the figures have yet to be reviewed by the CDC, there were no specific safety signals observed in pregnant people from the registry with 5,104 officially enrolled individuals. If you're wondering why pregnant women were not included in the clinical trials for the vaccine, these were ultimately due to the ethical issues surrounding the subject (and I understood that, besides, there are now real-world data to support the vaccine efficacy and safety).

Perhaps, one of the most compelling data I have gathered is that there are no differences seen in COVID vaccinated pregnant women compared with the background rates of adverse pregnancy outcomes. This easily translates to that regardless of whether you are vaccinated against COVID-19 during pregnancy or not, the same risks are presented[10]. Refer to the table below – these were the screenshots from the original article published at ACOG. I highly recommend that you read through the entire material to get thorough details on the study conducted.

 

 


Now, if you will ask me, are these data sufficient? From all the journals I have read so far, almost every time, these institutions would recommend longitudinal follow-up, but with the new COVID variants popping up, I'd definitely be making critical decisions as soon as the data are immediately available. And if I may reference some parts of the article written by TIME Senior Correspondent - Charlotte Alter (whom I had an e-mail exchange with regarding the safety of her baby after getting the shots, see screenshot below), you know how the researchers would keep saying, "we see no evidence that it causes birth defects" which could just be paraphrased to "we have evidence that it doesn’t", but why couldn’t they? To quote the medical expert that she had a consultation with, “the absence of evidence, for scientific researchers, is as close as they get to evidence of absence”, further highlighting that theoretically, it's impossible to prove a negative. And that’s when it hit me, that is how scientific world operates and so these data are just as relevant as whatever you need to support decisions like the one I just made.

 

 

After collecting all legitimate and updated information on the COVID vaccines in pregnancy, let me briefly discuss the pros of the different vaccine brands largely available in the Philippines.  The popular mRNA vaccines, Pfizer - Comirnaty and Moderna - Spikevax could easily be top of the list of preferences due to the relatively accessible literature demonstrating its safety and efficacy, although people should remember  that any vaccine has been proven effective EXCEPT that pregnancy is a contraindication to Gamaleya - Sputnik V[11] (this vaccine must not be administered to pregnant women). Pregnant women may also be given with Sinovac - Coronavac and Sinopharm which are inactivated vaccines, that work comparably with Hepatitis B and Tetanus vaccines—their safety profiles have likewise been proven over time[12]. As illustrated in the screenshot below, a Coronavac-cinated mom from the Facebook group I joined - Team Bakunanay, shared this result, flaunting the amazing antibodies passed on to the baby right after she gave birth. While Oxford - Astrazeneca can also be administered to pregnant individuals, I just find the gap between doses (it could be as long as 12 weeks apart[13]) unfavorable as of the moment considering that I would be on my third trimester by the time of the next dose, that could expose me to the highest COVID risk during pregnancy. Meanwhile, the use of Johnson & Johnson - Janssen has been cited with a rare risk of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS)[14], but considering its pro in which recipients could get immediate protection via its single dose administration,  pregnant individuals should be given fair chance on evaluating the benefits vs. associated risks of getting this shot. 

 

When should a pregnant get the vaccine shot? Pregnant women in their first trimester is one of the deferment criteria in the vaccination process flow published by the DOH[15] (so you'd likely to be rescheduled until the second trimester onwards). I got my first dose at 16 weeks (little past 3 weeks after my OB-GYN cleared me for the vaccination). PLEASE consult with your OB-GYN before getting the shot. 

 

There were definitely other reasons why I chose to get vaccinated. For instance, the vaccine is free of charge here in the Philippines (at least for the priority groups listed), compared with the medical expenses to be incurred when admitted for COVID disease (even more expensive for ICU or critical admissions—I will share the data based on the actual amounts of PhilHealth claims in Davao Region, probably in another blog post—spoiler alert, the average cost goes as high as P500,000 per critical COVID case). 

 

Finally, this may be my only "shot" at doing my part to end this pandemic. I think everyone hopes to get back to what we used to have…and I want to see my children live the most out of the lifetime…the “normal” way.

 

P.S. You can check the following tips if you are to embark the literate review journey that would help you decide whether to delay or immediately get the vaccine based on substantial and relevant information:

1) If you want to get the most updated publications and other resources related to Pregnancy and COVID vaccine, the SEARCH FILTERS from websites and social media will do a great job in providing you with the most recently uploaded contents (e.g. Search Keywords: COVID-19 vaccine in Pregnancy; Date Filter: This Week, This Month) 💻🔍

2) Take advantage of the hashtags used on the social media. I have been actively checking for vaccination rollout in Davao that I would explore common hashtags (e.g. #ResbakunaDavao), then filter the results by recent upload dates. Try it out! 📱 

P.S.++ I had mild pain from my injection site for two days, other than that, there were no side effects from my first and second shots.

P.S.+++ I had been trying to obtain the data on vaccination for pregnant women in the Philippines, but my e-FOI request was denied as "the National Vaccination Operations Center doesn't have disaggregated data up to that level of classification". This is why I have been primarily referencing studies conducted and published in different countries due to the lack of available literature locally.

SafeDavaoQR Swab Testing Concerns and Suggestions

Tuesday, June 15, 2021 at 19:45 2 comments
UPDATE: During my *unfortunate* second swab on July 21, 2021, the Sta. Ana Swab Center has implemented significant improvements from the time I had my first test last May. The changes have resolved my concerns ---although, not exactly as what I have suggested in this post, but the new arrangement seems sufficient to address the issues I had encountered before. 
 
--- 

On May 3, 2021, I received the following SMS from SafeDavaoQR:


I complied with anticipations that the local government must have set up a good system for the mass swab operations, unfortunately, things did not turn out the way I expected.

An e-mail with the following content was sent to a doctor on May 18, 2021, hoping that concerns related to the Safe Davao QR mass swab effort would be communicated to the authorities and somehow addressed. While there have been additional swab centers opened to the public since then, apparently, the same issues are still being experienced by Davaoeños as of this blog post. 

---

Hello Doc,

I have to raise few concerns with the mass swab testing --- hoping that you would be able to get these across to the higher committee handling the program.

These were based on personal experience falling under F3 more than 2 weeks ago.

1. On May 3, 2021, many grocery shoppers, those who went to NCCC Cabantian, probably between April 20 and May 1, received a notification from SafeDavaoQR subjecting us for Swab Test at Sta. Ana Health Center (SAHC). There were hotline numbers provided so we can schedule our appointment ---all of which are unreachable (even up to this writing). I attempted several calls, but to no avail.

2. I complied with the internal memorandum --notifying the barangay as well as, the company clinic about the SMS advisory. I also relayed the hotline number concern and I was advised to proceed directly at the said center.

3. On May 5th, I arrived little past 8:00am at SAHC only to be welcomed with a crowd of people lining up for the swab testing. My queue number was already at 96. People would sit from one chair to another in order to move forward to the queue.


These are my concerns:

1. I had been very careful not to go to crowded places but getting a swab test only exposed me to the COVID risks at the site.

2. SAHC caters not only F2 and F3, but they also do swab testing for F1 --- who would turn out with the highest probability of getting positive results. Imagine that at one point, I got to sit in one of those chairs where a COVID positive had also occupied. While I made sure of the necessary disinfection right I went home but how about those other people there who were less cautious about the possible transmission?

3. I had to wait several days for the results to come out --while I could be patient about this, what was bothering is that I would have to physically get the official results back at SAHC (I have not still secured mine to prevent risk exposure at the site, besides, it would no longer be relevant considering that I am on my 22nd day since the possible exposure at NCCC Cabantian on April 26th). They provided the hotline numbers for the result confirmation but again, these are not reachable.


Here are the personal suggestions:

1. Take advantage of the SafeDavaoQR tool: The system is capable of generating how many recipients would have to undergo swab testing ---which may be used to organize the schedule of testing (automated appointment booking) and limit the number of people going to a swab center. Furthermore, there is the age information so SMS recipients who are senior citizens get prioritized for testing. SafeDavaoQR could send the schedule automatically, allowing the recipient to confirm with a YES or NO to book the appointment ---the latter can now be manually handled by checking their preferred dates via call or even via the SafeDavaoQR profile (same as how Passport Application Online Appointments are done).

2. Safer on-site management: People who would be scheduled for appointments on the day should have an allotted space on site so they can just be in one location up to the time of swab collection. If walk-ins are anticipated, maybe they would also be given with specific number and corresponding waiting space so they do not have to move from one place to another.

3. Enhance overall communication systems: Resolve the hotline issues and prevent misinformation by not posting non-operational numbers at any official communication media (e.g. Facebook, SMS notification, etc.). Since the Data Privacy Act is already in effect when using the SafeDavaoQR, why not use the same facility to post updates related to the swab results and/or release them via SMS and e-mail address linked to the DQR profile.


I am speaking as part of the community po, Doc and not as an auditor. I know someone who recently lost his father to COVID and I somehow believe that no matter how small the improvements can be made in our fight against the virus, it can create impact, eventually save lives in the future.

Thank you for reading this e-mail and stay safe!

Glayra

Earlier that day, I talked to a representative of Safe Davao QR Facebook page as a first move to share my thoughts - see screenshots below. 




 

I may have little knowledge on what is truly happening on the ground and how complex COVID governance must be but I sincerely hope that somebody would think these through. 

"no matter how small the improvements can be made in our fight against the virus, it can create impact, eventually save lives in the future..." 


Additional Notes:

  • Click here for the EO No. 20 Series of 2021 - An order providing for mandatory swabbing of all F1, F2, and F3 contacts of an RT-PCR confirmed positive case of COVID-19 in Davao City
  • Here's where it gets more interesting,  the RT-PCR mass swab testing may not be entirely the most effective health response, read this and connect the dots. I can only imagine the disarray. 
  • SAHC operations have been suspended starting June 16th after eight (8) positive staff cases (link). I wonder if there are data showing transmission back to swab sites. 
  • Resources are either scarce or mismanaged (link). There is a wide gap between strategy and execution.

Zk's 2021 Geotags (5-Point Scale Review)

Saturday, May 15, 2021 at 18:04 0 comments

If it were not for the pandemic that has gravely impacted people mobility---the borders are closed and travels are restricted, we would have not explored the different local tourist attractions --- you see, we have always looked forward to booking trips off Mindanao, thinking that places here are easily within our reach. Given this Go Lokal opportunity, we've mapped out six (6) different geotags 📍, all of which were visited and reviewed using a set of indicators that represents our preferences (while the results were generated in quantitative manner, do recognize the distinct bias behind them plus the circumstances and/or conditions at the time of stay). 

4th Wedding Anniversary at Magnaga Waters Beach Resort

 

1. Accessibility

Owen, my husband, would tend to verify a location’s ease of access via the Google Maps before deciding if it’s a go or no-go. For instance, we would determine how long it would take us to depart from Davao and arrive at Camp Bernardino de Lavigan [Camp], Governor Generoso, where are the possible pit stops before getting there, or would the trip entail dangerous curves, etc. We had realized the value of accessibility when we visited Hof Gorei Beach Resort [Hof] in Kaputian, Island Garden City of Samal --- where we got lost on the way due to the lack of directions and/or unclear resort signages, and when we finally got to the resort’s entrance, we were welcomed with a long, steep stairway leading down to the beach which was a major setback for our company at the time. 😰

Anyway, the most accessible for us is the Magnaga Waters Beach Resort [Magnaga], Pantukan, Compostela Valley, a 2-hour travel from Davao and can easily be reached with its entrance located just by the highway. Besides the four-to-five-hour travel time, getting to the Camp has been an almost challenge-free discovery in spite of the long trip. 🛣️ Our all-time favorite – Cavanico Il Mare Resort [Cavanico] in Samal would have been at the top if not for the strict QR requirement (Camp also required one, btw). The La Entrada Beach Resort [Britania], located in San Agustin, Surigao del Sur, was the most remote place. With slight consideration on its geographical distance from home, the location is actually reachable, especially when we had Mangagoy, Bislig as base for departure (Britania was a spontaneous side-trip from our planned Mama Phem visit). Finally, a rough-road detour to Castle View [Castle], Babak, Island Garden City of Samal is rated as less favorable than the rest. 🚧

 

2. Accommodation

Executive Room at Magnaga Waters (January 17, 2021)
Although working from home presents a great deal of advantages, sometimes, it feels like we’re living at work 🥺 so, finding an alternative and short-term stay has become a necessity. The Castle’s accommodation underscores this need with its cozy studio and an unparalleled view of the city and the sea, the pool and the surrounding garden of the Castle. Flaunting its high-speed internet connection, the place is a temp abode for any digital nomad. On the other hand, the Executive Room stay during our 4th wedding anniversary at Magnaga has given us cabin vibes with plenty of breathing space --- an imperative decamping from our ordinary home.


All the rest offered room-for-a-change feels, except for the Camp, where we spent our first Glamping experience. Unfortunately, getting a standard tent without the airconditioner would turn out to be inconvenient for my AC-dependent husband and son with the overall impression downgraded... and so our tip? Upgrade to deluxe 🤑! Meanwhile, we had always wanted a Layag room in Cavanico especially with our 2019 experience of its complimentary room offer, but our recent stay presented few undesirables --- from dusty floor, undisposed swab and snack leftover to annoying unhinged restroom door (in any case, don’t book for Layag #10 🧐). The low-scores for Hof (whilst the professional butler service) and Britania were attributed to non-operational backup power generator at the time of stay when there were unscheduled blackouts (hopefully, these resorts would ponder on the word “backup”). 🤨 

 

3. Food

We would usually find personal sense of a place with respect to how good the food is --- exactly why we connected easily with the Camp, Magnaga, and Hof. The foods they served were so glorious that made our guts overjoyed 😋 --- a definite 5-score delish. Our meals at Cavanico did not entirely disappoint, but we had better food experience with the resort in the past. Comparably, I had way more delectable meals back at home than what La Entrada had served us at the time of visit. And with the Castle, you have to bring or cook your own food (in our case, we arranged the Pahongs dinner with a local caterer).

 

4. Swimming

Infinity Pool at the Castle View (April 10, 2021)
All of these resorts share one *critical* feature in common --- a swimming destination! In fact, this may be the only indicator that would qualify for any trips approved by Owen 🤭 --- that he and my son, Zk, could share the best water experience together (we had this inside joke that I would only be the bantay-bag-si-Mama on the side 🥴). For that, Britania is conceivably at the top of the list with its beautiful islets, pristine white, fine sand and clear seawater. I had never been to anywhere close to Britania’s perfection which highly demands a repea-trip (maybe will try out O’s Landing for overnight stay next time).

Infinity Pool at Magnaga Waters (January 18, 2021)

First stop: Hagonoy Islet (Britania Islands - April 23, 2021)

Since all of our trips are well-researched with spots carefully chosen, the rest get one score lower than Britania, of course! But to recapitulate: Cavanico – you get to fairly enjoy the sea and pool (a rare combo); Castle –  cannot beat the view from the cleanest infinity pool ever (we witnessed how its “robot” pool vacuum cleaner has done twice the job of its human counterpart); Hof – cold,  6-ft deep freshwater pool, suitable for any good swimmer like Owen; Camp – child-friendly sea in the south (knowing that the Mati beaches nearby are mostly otherwise), and; Magnaga – featuring a decent tiered rectangular pool setting the perfect lap for Owen and toddler-safe depth for Zk. 🏊‍♀️

 

5. Customer Service

You know how they say about restrooms reflecting the quality of the services in your business? I may remember the good food but it’s hard to forget a room that gives me discomfort.  It’s just one of the many good customer service signs I look for in a resort. But this part of the review is primarily based on which resort had been consistently genuine to their customers from the moment we entered the place up to the exit point --- and without a doubt, Camp is our number one. The interaction with every person was unexpectedly consistent throughout our entire stay. Further, the proactive customer service they exhibited has totally set the bars high. Btw, the comfort-room-check proved my point. 🚽☑️

La Entrada Beach Resort (April 23, 2021)

With the unscheduled power interruption at Britania’s La Entrada, it’s hard to be in their shoes when they had to manage us while dealing with the backup power failure. To be fair, they handled us without any hint of frustration (or maybe, their actions reflected my calmness in such situation --- thanks to my Yoga practice!). Anyway, the same behavior and response were demonstrated by everyone (from the front desk officer to the boat operator) -- this consistency equates to a less perfect score for they could have offered something to cover for the mishap (O’s Landing, here we come!). And for the rest, we've just received what average customer service feels like --- inconsistent and reactive. 🤷

 

6. Toddler-Friendliness

Playhouse at Camp Bernardino De Lavigan (March 5, 2021)
Aside from considering Owen’s preferences (not mine 🤫), we also look at how Zk would be able to relive the out-of-house experience whenever choosing for the next vacation spot --- right on, see the playhouse at the Camp! It’s every toddler's vacation dream --- the sea and the sand, the toys in the playground, and the heat with a playmate (Summer --- wherever you are, Zk hopes to meet you again). Surely, he had the best fun when he would also spend his worst tantrum as soon as we hinted “home”.

As I’ve mentioned, Cavanico – our all-time favorite, has earned this tag because Zk loves both the sand and the kiddie pool --- apparently, a scarce feature (trust me, I have spent most of my social media time searching for this combo). Then we have the Castle (City View Room) with its long and wide space that any toddler could spend his entire day running back and forth (also, it is hard to dismiss the adult+kid’s fun with the Foosball ). Finally, swimming had been the core fun with Zk at Britania, Magnaga, and Hof, if you’d ask. 
Cavanico Il Mare (May 9, 2021)

 

7. Budget

Known to be kuripot, we would prioritize spending our money on the needs and essentials but with the lockdown period and long WFH days, our mind and soul demands at least short breaks from our home-office. Btw, we’re affected by the economic impact of this pandemic that both of us are actually on a reduced workweek (a.k.a. reduced earnings 📉) but we’re able to manage our finances, sufficient for us to afford the *mentally essential* trips. 🧖

Excluding the transportation costs, we would allocate at least P6,000.00 on an average with the highest being at the recent Cavanico stay (Mom's Day) and the Camp (Kuya Micco's Birthday), reaching at least 50% more than the average on each trip. The expenses in Britania and our anniversary date at Magnaga were the most warranted at the time of spending while the expenses accounted for my birthday at Hof were just below the average (well, the getaway was largely sponsored by my family 😇). The Castle’s stunning view was an overstatement of how we actually paid for that sight --- at least 3,500.00 and could still go down if we would have brought ready-to-cook foods. It may all have accumulated to a significant spend, but at the end of the day, we’ve used up the temporary and tangible means to create the best intangible moments and store them into our core memories as a family. 👨‍👩‍👦🤍

Zk at Hof Gorei (March 18, 2021)

 

Owen and I at Camp Bernardino De Lavigan (March 6, 2021)

…and the top geotag as of this blog post is…Magnaga with 0.14 faint lead from the Camp in its 4.00 average score. Sharing at 3rd place spot are Britania, Hof and Cavanico --- each of which has specific edge over the other. While the food score may have dragged the Castle down from the rest of the group, it has facilitated one of the most memorable bonding experiences with my friends (especially that we celebrated double baby showers even in the time of pandemic).


As depicted in the radar chart on the left, Magnaga’s strong suits are Accessibility, Accommodation, and Food while the Camp offers similar leads plus the Toddler-Friendliness but all its pros came with a hefty price tag. And for the rest, Britania = Swimming, Hof = Food, Cavanico = Swimming + Zk-friendly, Castle = Accommodation. 

 

With relationships, mental wellbeing and Wigo milestones all dialed up early this year, we could now revert to ultra-health-and-wealth saving mode. 'Til next year! ✈ 🤞


P.S. In case you're wondering, Camp was the resort observed with high regard to health and safety protocols. Review as of the time of stay is presented in the figure below with 1 as very low and 5 as very high.We had anticipated the inconsistent implementation of safety practices, so regardless of where we were, we ensured our protection by enforcing personal safety measures to prevent infection and transmission of COVID-19. 🖐️😷













If you have clarifications on the review scores, let me know in the comment section. 🤗
