- Today, we decided to do a walking tour of Corktown. There's a few big developments on Michigan Avenue - the Godfrey Hotel/boutique hotel and the Perennial Apartments/luxury apartment building with a rooftop pool. detroit.eater.com/2021/9/29/2...
Michigan Avenue is set to be replaced with an road surface that will charge electric vehicles as they drive. www.freep.com/story/money/car...
As we walk, we pass Momento Gelato, Brooklyn Street Local, and Detroit Institute of Bagels on the way to Mudgie's Deli. www.mudgiesdeli.com/wp/
Importantly, Mudgie's Deli owner Greg Mudge recently passed away and there is an ongoing effort to rename the street in the honor of Greg Mudge. It's heading to Detroit's City Council this week: detroitmi.gov/government/city...
From a medical perspective, you should aim for 30 minutes of vigorous activity each day - cardiovascular exercise like walking, running, biking, swimming, or other aerobic activities. The goal is to get 30 minutes each day for 5 days each week, or 150 minutes in total of vigorous, aerobic exercise.
The new COVID booster is a bivalent booster, meaning that it has the original vaccine PLUS the omicron-specific vaccine. Bivalent just means that the vaccine protects you from TWO strains of virus.
In comparison, the Fluarix Flu shot is a Quadrivalent vaccine, which protects against four strains of flu viruses. This year the Fluarix quadrivalent flu shot protects against the Victoria 2019, Darwin 2021, Austria 2021, and Phuket 2013 flu strains. We have the Fluarix flu shots at our Plum Health DPC office for $24.
We also carry the Fluzone Quadrivalent Flu Vaccine, which again protects against four strains of flu viruses. This year the Fluzone quadrivalent flu shot protects against the Victoria 2019, Darwin 2021, Phuket 2013, and Michigan 2021 flu strains. This Fluzone vaccine is $23 at our Plum Health DPC office.
The Bivalent Covid vaccine is free at most pharmacies and health departments. We will have free doses at Plum Health starting next week on Wednesday (09/28/2022).
Covid Bivalent Booster Vaccine side effects are similar to previous vaccines - arm soreness, it could cause malaise (not feeling well) for 1 to 2 days, it could cause a low-grade temperature increase to 99 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day,

I so enjoy your motivating and informative walks. Great having you as my doctor.
When I was in my 20’s, I used to spend a lot of weekends at the Gaelic League. They used to bring fantastic music in from Ireland every month. My great great grandparents moved to Corktown in 1839. My great grandparents were both born there, as were my grandmother and my dad.
I was there yesterday and toured the MCS. Such a dramatic change from 30 years ago when I lived in that area.
Whoooooooo
It's on Michigan Avenue this moanin
