Thelocal appointments were taken, but I was able to get us in at a Walgreens Pharmacy about an hour away. Yesterday I had a slightly sore arm, a dull headache and felt a little funky. Today I feel fine. My wife just had a sore arm but it's still with her, and is apparently worse than mine was. Thesecond dose iscoming up the first week of April. I'm ready to get it done and over with. Got my first Pfizer shot today about 10 hours ago. So far, so good. Lee County sent me an Email a couple days ago and asked if I still needed my shot so I may be getting close. I hope it doesn't make me sick. I don'thave time for that ****. These people would starve. I've had both Moderna shots. First one just gave me a bit of soreness in the upper arm at the vacc site. Second one made me a little drowsy for a day. Wife felt a bit nauseous for a day after second shot. It's been almost two weeks since my secondshot. No lasting side effects. Still masking up when we go out, keeping away from other peeps, sanitizing our hands with the spray bottles we keep with us, and washing our hands when we get home. I visit the supermarket when needed between 7 and 8 am, when it is least crowded. We did visit a local Thairestaurantthis past week; tables were at least 10' apart. If you are still acting like you did last year, why bother with the shot? === The shots are not infallible, about 95% effective for the Moderna and Pfizer. That certainly improves your safety a great deal but we're not totally out of the woodsuntil some large percentage of the population gets vaccinated. That's not going to happen until May/June at best. Until then it pays to take reasonable precautions. Using that logic, it will never be safe because a third of the country may never get vaccinated. How much are you going to give up to keep them safe? === 67% would be a huge improvement from where we are now and would greatly reduce the risk for people who *are* vaccinated. Of the 33% who aren't, some will eventually fall into line, and some will contract Covid. Of those who contract Covid, some will acquire immunity that way, and others will eliminate themselves fromthegene pool. I think that eventually "proof of vaccination" will become a common requirement for many activities, just like proof of small pox vaccination was common 70 years ago. Fretwell's naive libertarianism is creeping out. I agree that proof of vaccination should be a requirement.-- * Lock up Trump and his family ofgrifters. *A requirement for what? Why can't you ever complete a thought?I assume he means to exercise any of your unalienable rights.
