They lowered the age requirement in our state, so my wife and I were able to get our vaccines on Tuesday of this week. The local 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.

The second dose is coming 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't have 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 second shot. 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 Thai restaurant this 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 woods until 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 from the gene
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.

This is strange from a guy who thinks proof of citizenship shouldn't
be necessary to vote. It is harder to check out a library book than it
is to vote.
BTW it is going to be your liberal friends at the ACLU that fights a
Covid ID law. Blacks and Latinos are some of the strongest opponents
to this vaccine. They keep pointing out Tuskegee.

This is not a Tuskegee offense. We want everyone vaccinated. Even
libertarians.

You are not trying to convince me. I am just repeating things I hear
people of color say on TV.
I would get the shot if they made it easy. I knew this was going to be
a cluster****. We trusted the government to do it.

The "government" did a fine job for me. It announced an internet and
phone sign up system, I logged on, got an appointment, got vaccinated. I
assume as soon as the shots are in plentiful supply and don't need
special refrigeration (the next generation for all of them), it'll be a
walk-in to your local pharmacy, as it is for many other vaccinations.
Don't want to get vaccinated? Stay the **** home...

What about those poor folks for whom getting an ID to vote is far too onerous.
Should they just 'stay the **** home'? You're a racist, Krause!
