China Virus Shots Coming to town

[Slab]

Talk about the shot but leave any politics out of it please.

I’m gonna get my 90 year old mom the shot as soon as I can. Hopefully this coming week. And when it’s available to me I’ll get it too. It’s been a crazy 2020. Life gotta get back to normal. Just sayin’

All I can say is I’ve been at Huntsville Hospital 20 years and don’t recall ICU’ being packed full of Flu/ Pneumonia! And there are 270 people in CV Service line, and over 80% of them have been vaccinated. I guess you can’t please everyone!

After having Covid my take on the vaccine has changed. I don’t want this mess again. I’m 3 1/2 weeks past the day of my first symptoms and I’m still not back to 100%. I was one of the fortunate ones where the congestion was in my head, not my chest. I’ve had stuff that made me feel worse for a day or two than this made me feel on my worst day but I’ve never had anything that made me feel so bad for so long a period of time. I talked to a younger lady the other day about it. She’s maybe 35 and has had it twice. She said the 2nd time was just as bad as the first time. She had it 3 months apart

Mom is 86 & will get the vaccine as soon as it's available. I'm 58, overweight & have asthma, so I will get in line also.

Brenda and I got our shots yesterday. Neither of us had any reaction or soreness. We are to return in 3 weeks for a second shot. Get you shots. It could save your life.

Cane, where did you get your shots and what was the wait time?

At the health dept here in Huntingdon, Tn. They have a drive thru outbuilding set up in the parking lot and routed traffic around the office complex. Very well organized. Shots were given between 9-4. We went about 2pm..No line..Filled out paperwork, got shot, waited 15 min in parking area for any reaction, which was none. Came home.

The line was long this morning so I was told, but was well organized. 4 people were giving the shots.

Hopefully, you got to go to Dairy Queen after your shot.
It's a requirement for me.

A Buddy was telling me that His Doctor advised Him to get the covid shot. He told the Doctor He wanted a second opinion. The Doctor said, "OK, you are ugly too".
When my buddy told me about it, I said "You know the Doctor was right on both counts". He said, "Yep, I reckon. So I went ahead and got the shot, the other He couldn't do much about".

My dad is 79 years old and has heart issues and I’m a teacher, so we’re both supposed to be in the second wave, but we were both able to get our first shot today. The pharmacy that’s giving them in my town had some cancellations and I had told them that Dad and I could be there within 5 minutes of them calling me if they could do that. Pharmacist said that she had to use them and wasn’t about to just throw them away. She had exactly 2 shots that people didn’t show up for. We got lucky. They called at 5:45 today, just 15 minutes before closing time and we were all done and had our cards and gone by 6:10. I have no regrets. Maybe now some of my paranoia and worry will go away or at least lower a bit.

She said the vaccine was supposed to be affective for at least 90 days. She thinks we’ll all have to get them yearly like flu shots. I thanked her for taking time to call. Dad & I had no side affects.
