Join Sue Moloney for another addition of “Off the Cuff” this Thursday (and the first Thursday of every month) at 7pm on KMUD radio. Her guest will be Dr. Joel Wallskog. Dr. Wallskog was a physically active, successful orthopedic surgeon before he got the COVID-19 vaccine. One week after getting the Moderna shot, his feet went numb, he couldn’t walk, and his life changed forever. Forced into retirement from the work he loved, he now dedicates his time to helping other vaccine-injured folks at REACT19.org, an organization he co-chairs. Hear his story and how he is helping countless others on the show this Thursday evening at 7pm right here on KMUD. Your calls are welcome.
This concludes the Community Safety and Awareness Report, read weekdays at 11 and 3pm and as needed to bring you up to the minute road reports, burn permission status, emergency updates as well as programming information. We encourage our listeners to bookmark our community resources and calendar page for up to date and detailed information of all the services our community offers.
