Get Your Test Early

You will love this! Enjoy! My friend Betty of Ojai,CA is 91-years old. Just days ago, she did the drive through testing at her doctor's office for the Coronavirus. Easy. She will find out from her doctor the results in two weeks. Betty is a caregiver for her 96-year old husband—a great couple.

Good genes? Betty's Mom, Marie, lived to be 107-years old. Wear your mask out in public, enjoy the fresh air and sunshine too. Let’s get back to work and school tests ASAP. Go California! Good news! Betty's coronavirus test came back NEGATIVE!

Listen to Gerri Harris's story...

105-year-old Raleigh woman remembers her father being sick

during 1918 flu amid current COVID-19 pandemic

Gerri Harris is grateful."I can get up, put my feet on the floor and have my breakfast and get dressed every day," the 105-year-old said. "That's a blessing." She spoke about her memories of the 1918 influenza and reflected on what she's seeing with the current pandemic.

She said now she's less concerned about herself as a member of the vulnerable population and more so about everyone else. "People should take care of themselves just like you're wearing a mask," she told Josh Chapin. "We could curb this stuff if people would just do what the president and what our governor tell us to do."
