Birch tree shouldn’t even be in convo of this type of thing. Nobodies going to get an egg flatbread after a baseball game at what’s essentially a big cafe.

Bay state is just a really awkward setup. Honestly can’t even tell it’s there.

The stadium isn’t stealing business. Unless you want to park in front of the place you’re going, it’s not hurting parking either.

Y’all want the area to thrive, but love to bitch about things that will bring outsiders in that can help out.

Covid is definitely to blame, but that area is just kind of shitty. You stay down there too late and it’s a rowdy college crowd, which foodies and what not don’t want to deal with.

These places also probably got PPP loans and can’t pay them back, which would make sense since they’re all closing around the same time.

Definitely eggroll lady, isn't just all cream cheese.

I love mins for cheap great Chinese food but the crab Rangoons are only okay

Harvest moon 2 has solid ones too, the wontons are just better than other places.

I had a pretty bad cough in November of 2019 that didn’t completely go away until mid-February of 2020. I thought I had COVID before it crossed the ocean. I mean, it’s possible I had an early variant or something. It was the type of dry cough that made your eyes bloodshot, woke you up (if you ever even got to sleep), and made your whole body hurt, and it was hard to catch your breath. I went to ReadyMed maybe 5 times, saw various other doctors another 3-4 times. They checked for flu, pertussis, pneumonia, etc.—all negative. What helped me a bit was a cough med called Tessalon Perles and Azithromycin (Z-pack). After the antibiotics, the cough really began to subside. The doctors initially didn’t want to give me the Z-pack, but I insisted and it worked. A month later, right as stay in place happened, I got the flu. I got COVID last May, and it was very mild—5 days of just feeling blah with a mild fever, though I’m sure being vaccinated helped quite a bit.

Honestly, some coughs can last a month or two, but if it’s severe and impacting your breathing or sleep and OTC meds aren’t helping, ask about Tessalon Perles or getting antibiotics.

My wife (healthy weight, early 30s, non-smoker and minimal drinker) has been coughing since September too. No COVID, she’s tested weekly. I haven’t got sick either. Antibiotics didn’t help. Doctors said bronchitis, but it’s been a month and still lingers. Very strange.
