But if an elected official can't be on the floor to vote due to medical or mental impairment issues, should they be allowed to vote of how the DC Swamp controls our lives?

Either way., maybe Mental /Physical Health and the Vaxccident will slowly change the Federal Elected and Political landscape.

BTW: California sets the records for old age.
The oldest House Representative is Grace Napolitano, D-Calif. at 86. In the Senate, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., at 89 is the oldest

#2 Shingles is not a long term illness. Not sure what shingles treatment you could get at the hospital other than an IV.

#3 It's very painful and other than strong pain meds, you just have to wait it out.

#4 So this likely means she did not get the common and tested SAFE shingles shot?

So, I wonder if she actually got the publically administered Clot-Shot also?

#6 Herpes zoster, which is the virus that causes shingles, is bad news if it gets to the brain.

#7 I had shingles, got the shingles vax because shingles sucks. I will wait on all further vaccines until trust is restored. I may be waiting a while.

With regard to Feinstein, I am not a fan, but I wish her good health. I don’t think she will retire. Gavin Newsom would probably send a hench person or thing to fill the spot if Feinstein cannot continue. Appointing a potential contender would touch off a melee that would be fun to watch, but I don’t think that they are that stupid. Whoever ends up in that role long term will be under the CCP thumb.

#8 Super Hose I've had shingles for 8 months. My Doctors and internet searches tell me I may have pain for the rest of my life. The rash and blisters went away after about 4 weeks but I still can't wear a shirt for very long. I hope she doesn't suffer as I have.

#9 Ouch. I will pray for you and her.

I suspect that she has she may have a third issue going on other than the dementia and shingles.
