Covid vaccine

[MCG1]

First dose, fast, easy, painless. Second appointment made.

Like some of you, I was considering passing on the vaccine because of the uncertainty. Due to having only 25% use of my heart... I posed the question to my cardiologist. His response: get it AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. With your heart the chance of dying because of this illness is more sure of a thing than dying from the vaccine for it. I got the shot.

I received my first dose of the Pfizer version on Thursday at work. I had some pretty nasty side effects including headache, exhaustion, sore joints and my gums felt swollen. The side effects I was blessed with were far worse than when I had the actual covid back in November. Not looking forward to the second dose. I will say that I am one of only 5 that I know of that had any meaningful side effects out of over 500 that received it.

Wife and I scheduled to get our first tomorrow.

We got the Moderna. No side effects except for slightly sore arm for a couple days. Get the 2nd in 4 weeks.

Well, looks like I may be a guinea pig for this vaccine. My school was closed today due to 10 teachers being out and close to 100 kids sent home including all players on both the boys & girls basketball teams. All were close contacts to just a handful of positive cases. One of those positives is my friend, and father of a girls basketball player, and he & his wife met me & mine for dinner Saturday night at our local steakhouse. He said he began feeling like he had the flu on Sunday and got a quick test and he’s positive........so I’m now on the close contact list, meaning I can’t go back to the school until February 3 at the earliest. We will see if my vaccine keeps it away, or at least at bay. I’ll update if anything changes.

Nothing yet at all. I have stayed away from stores & restaurants. I have cleaned the house and all of our vehicles. I’m ready to go back to work! Just got a call that I am scheduled to get my second shot this Friday at 5 o’clock.

More vaccine coming on line. Looking forward to the time that everyone is eligible.

I got my first shot in early January. Got the second on 4 February. For the first I had a little discomfort at the injection site and felt like hammered poop the day after. Then the second - arm much more painful but not unbearable. Can't tell you how I felt the day after the 2nd, as I had surgery to remove a Basal Cell Carcinoma (skin cancer) that day. Not feeing anything like the day after the first, so not too bad a reaction as far as I am concerned.

Got my second shot this morning

Still waiting. PA is not doing well with distribution, at least here in the SE. Glad to see guys getting the vaccine.
