Just received the first Moderna shot. I'm a hospital employee but don't work directly with patients, however, I do work with the medical patient care equipment. Proof will be forthcoming.

My arm got pretty sore at the injection site when I moved my shoulder, and remains sore today, but not flinch worthy. I also got a headache which was likely related the muscle tension and felt down but not out. It's all pretty much gone save for the shoulder now. I wonder how the main shot will feel?

[Buddahaid]

Second shot this morning about seven hours ago and I'm slowly starting to feel a bit achy. Tomorrow I'm expecting to feel crummy based on what others experienced.

Being currently a patient at a rehab facility, I was given no choice but to get vaccinated. To me it felt like any other shot.

Standard Sputnik-V. You get a questionare then get shown the vial and get the shot. Then you are asked to wait nearby for 30min in case of a random deadly alergic reaction.


I got it in a private clinic (the vaccine itself is free and pushed everywhere) due to convenience.

[ET2SN]

First dose of Moderna, done. :up:

Either no effects at all or the nurse missed. :o


Update- Wound up with the minor/slight headache for a couple of days plus the slight body aches. No big deal at all. :up: I thought I had a slight itch where the shot was given, turned out the nurse slapped on a band aid while I wasn't looking. :oops:

Otherwise, my 5G reception is now quite remarkable. :yeah:

Last update- Got the second dose today after bringing in some groceries, just in case. :yeah:

[Onkel Neal]

First shot achieved.

[Platapus]

I received my first shot about 6 hours ago. Just have some tenderness at the injection site. It is annoying



So far, I can't determine what the effects of changing my DNA are. Perhaps that happens after the second shot. :D

[argonne18]

Just got second Pfizer yesterday (over 60 yrs. old/educator). First one had no effects except a bit of a sore shoulder the day after.
Over 24 hours since #2, no real effects! Slight achy head last night, nothing else. Less of a headache than a mild hangover! of course, a bit of soreness in shoulder as with all shots...

[Eichhörnchen]

https://i.imgur.com/JWP15LM.jpg

Evening of the jab and the day after I got MILD and intermittent flu-like symptoms (feverish, shivery, bit of a headache and aching neck muscles) plus the site of the jab felt very bruised for 4 or 5 days after, hurting when I lifted it

Moira gets hers on Sunday

[fireftr18]

I got my shots. I think my arm was a little sore, that's about it.

[Aktungbby]

Got my first Moderna shot on Thursday in well organized car line at county health center. Wife drove; so I was passenger- so right shoulder through open window administered by actual physician! :yeah: I'm still stiff today.

[stoppro]

got it yesterday pfizer 1st one next on 3/28- no effects

[Moonlight]

Got mine at the local GP surgery yesterday as well, the nurse said she'd run out of forms so she'll post it to me, I didn't ask which one it was as I wasn't bothered which one was trying to turn me into a raving lunatic because I'm already one, no side effects as yet.

[Commander Wallace]

I got my first shot this morning. It was the Pizer formulation. Much like everyone else, I feel head achy and my stomach is upset. The injection site and my arm is sore as well. They are reserving the vaccinations for those over 60-65 which I'm not even close. Work related conditions required I get one when they were available.


I will post my vaccination record card when I figure out how.

Posting your vacc card is not necessary, we trust you. -- NS

[Platapus]

I received my second vaccination about three hours ago. So far no adverse reactions.

[PeeBee74]

Just got home from AZ shot #1. Back in twelve weeks for #2 :up:

[Armistead]

Got mine yesterday in NC, as did wife and son. We all got to do it together so it went pretty good and fast. We all 3 dealt with covid last Oct. Sore arm only issue.

[Platapus]

Just got home from AZ shot #1. Back in twelve weeks for #2 :up:


12 weeks between shots?

[Jimbuna]

12 weeks between shots?

First brought into effect in the UK, the logic being more people can get at least some immunity after having had the first shot.

As an example, my first Pfizer shot was 16th February and my second is due 11th May.

More countries are now following suit.

[Gorpet]

Got my first shot, Thursday afternoon 5:00 pm 3/18/21 Pfizer 2nd shot will be on 4/8/21 . Reaction from the first shot, sore arm and the next day my body temp felt warmer than usual. Asked the neighbor if i could float in their pool with my life preserver on and smoke some of their medicinal pain reliever. And i am now good to go and looking forward to my second shot on 4/8 /21 .

[blackswan40]

Had my first Corvid Vaccine shot today

[mookiemookie]

Fully vaxxed with Moderna - first one, just a sore arm. Second one about 8 hours of run down and sick feeling. Well worth it for the peace of mind.

[Onkel Neal]

Second shot achieved, no ill effects.

[3catcircus]

First Pfizer shot yesterday. Arm is sore.

[stoppro]

2nd shot pfizer sunday no effects

[joea]

Got my first Pfizer March 8 and due for the next on April 7. Sore arm and fatigue the next day but that's it. Oh and hi everyone.

[Justink]

Got my second shot last month. I was absolutely miserable for about 24 hours after. Had a lot of aches and chills but no fever.

[Commander Wallace]

I got my second Pfizer injection last week. I had some issues about 30 minutes after and was Ill for a few days. I'm feeling better now. I have some underlying issues so I will attribute the Ill effects to that and not the injection.


I sincerely hope this doesn't dissuade anyone from getting their Covid Inoculations. Better to be Ill for a little while than the alternatives.

[Aktungbby]

Got the second Moderna vaccine today, along with the wife, administered in the car line at the city health dept. parking lot...to the right shoulder again. No problems or stiffness.

[Bilge_Rat]

got my first shot of Pfizer today! Glad that is over.

[Dowly]

Got my first shot on Thursday, Comirnaty by Pfizer and BioNTech.


No side effects other than the usual soreness, next one in July.

[Jimbuna]

Second jab sorted.

[Randomizer]

First shot of Pfizer last Wednesday, no side effects noted but the Frau's vaccinated arm was sore for the next day.

-C

[THE_MASK]

astrazenica shot

[August]

So my company offered everyone $250 and up to a day off to get the shot. They told me (informally) that refusing to get the shot might cause problems at work, especially when going out to customer sites, so I broke down and got it. I got the one shot J&J version so I would be done with it but then the nurse tells me as she hands me my card not to have it laminated because the government might require us to get boosters or other shots in the future. Lovely. :nope:


Then I go home and get just as sick as I did when I had the damn disease. Moar loveliness! :nope:

[Rockstar]

Well, I buckled and got my first jab of Moderna this morning. Only side effect was feeling flushed about 2 or 3 minutes afterwards, lasting just a minute or so.


Now its about three hours later and my arm is sore at the injection the sight.

I'm gonna start whinning a lot more real soon if I dont get some ice cream or a lollipop or something.

[Rockstar]

Because of an immediate adverse reactions of tunnel vision, flushed, lite headed though mild. I will not get the second dose. Seems it had something to do with already having COVID last October.


On the brightside one dose of Moderna is rated up to 80% effective. Couple that with the already exsisting antibodies its like having two doses anyway.


Glad thats over because I was not looking foward to getting another. From childhood to the military Ive been injected with every vaccine known to mankind. Not once did I ever have any kind of reaction to them. Until now, and three days later it still feels like its screwing with me. :)

[vienna]

I finally got my first dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine this past Friday (28 May), and, other than a mild bit off off-feeling and a stiffness in my arm, I haven't had any adverse reactions; I did experience an odd numbness in the ring and little fingers of my left hand (I had the shot in my left arm), but I can't say for certain that it was the result of the jab since I had experienced the same affect prior due to my various conditions; it has been a rather long time since the last bout of numbness, but it may just be coincidental...

I chose the Pfizer over the Johnson since I do have concerns related to my strokes about possible blood clots and there have been scattered reports of blood clots as a possible side effect of the Johnson vaccine, so better safe than sorry; I took so long to get my shot due to various factors; at first, even though I am in the high priority group (old geezer), here in LA County, the first vaccination centers were drive thru only and, since I don't have a car, it was a bit of a non-starter; I decided to wait for my usual clinic to get the vaccine, but there was a lot of confusion owing to the rather inept rollout of the vaccine supply by the Operation Warp Speed (ironic name, that) causing local entities administering the doses to be uncertain as to when, if, or how many doses they were actually going to get, a confusion further aggravated when the General in charge of Warp Speed announced that previously announced reserve supplies for the second round of doses, much touted as being available and in stock, were actually not at all in stock and actually had never existed at all, a fact conveniently hidden until the previous Oval Office administration was just a couple of days away from exiting; the new situation necessitated the County to reassess how, and to whom, the existing dose were to be prioritized, so I had to put off getting the shot...

...then there was the Shingle Situation; I had been long overdue to receive a shingles vaccine, owing to my clinic's difficulty in securing the right vaccine, and they finally got it a few months back, and the decision was made I should get the shingles shot before I could get the Covid shot; it is customary and advised to wait at least two (2) weeks between vaccine shots of differing vaccines; I got the shingles shot and, the very same day, I had a whooping bad reaction to the jab; it laid me up for over three weeks and laid me low; the shingles shot is like the Covid shot and requires two applications to be effective, so, after a prolonged convalescence, I went in for the second shot, hoping for the best; other than a couple of days of off-feeling, the effects were mild, so, with another few weeks of waiting, I finally got the first Covid jab; I'm to receive the second jab just after mid-June, and I hope it goes as well as the first...

I am of a mind, after all the mishaps and stress of my latest experiences with vaccines, if there is a new viral threat, to just let it wash over me and take my chances of coming out OK on the other side...






<O>

[Gorpet]

Well i got my second shot of Pfizer on 4-8-21 And i had no after effects.

[Moonlight]

I've had both shots of that AstraZeneca vaccine and I had no side effects at all, I'm wondering if it was just bloody water they jabbed me with. :o

[vienna]

Just had the second jab of the Pfizer vaccine earlier today; there have been no noticeable side effects, other than a brief numbness in the little and ring finger of my left hand, a condition I experienced after the first jab, but the effect only lasted about an hour or two; at least, I am now done with the process...




<O>

[Cyborg322]

had both done about 3 weeks ago Astra Zeneca only mild fever after but had to go to the Vaccination center at Sports City (Manchester City FC) to get it done which was quite painful

[vienna]

It seems my Covid jab has resulted in a modest profit; I received a message from the CA State Health Dept. notifying me I am eligible to receive a USD $50.00 grocery gift card for having completed my two jabs; I went to the State's Covid website, filled out the required form, and according to the site, I should receive my gift card in about five or so days; I had thought I might have missed the time frame for the card offer, but I've lucked in...




<O>

[Mr Quatro]

^ Wow! We should rename vienna Mr Lucky :yeah:

[Texas Red]

I'm the first kid in my family to be fully vaccinated.

Got my first shot on May 26, and I got my second only a couple of days ago on June 18. No more masks for me! :Kaleun_Salute:


I'm so glad that I got it, and I strongly encourage people to get the vaccine.

Stay safe everyone!

[Sean C]

My wife got a single shot vaccination today. A few hours later, she had a fever of 101°F (38°C) and chills. She got some rest and hydration and says she's starting to feel better now.

[Catfish]

First Moderna yesterday.

I already feel the urge to buy Microsoft products :O:

what’s funny was that I didn’t get any side effects, nothing really. Had baseball events both days that I got my shots and I never felt any soreness or sickness at all :hmmm:

[Sean C]

She just woke up and her fever has returned. Back to bed ...

[vienna]

^ Wow! We should rename vienna Mr Lucky :yeah:


Hey, I'm buying the brand name stuff at the market when I get the card... :03:

The lucky ones here in CA are the persons who got the jab(s) and were selected in the State drawing for prizes ranging from USD $500,000 to $1.500,000; I don't think I'm eligible for those drawings, but, hey, fifty bucks is fifty bucks...


what’s funny was that I didn’t get any side effects, nothing really. Had baseball events both days that I got my shots and I never felt any soreness or sickness at all :hmmm:


The reactions to vaccines, and medications in general, can widely vary among individuals; I had a very severe reaction to the first of two shingles vaccine jabs I got and was laid up for a bit over three weeks, but the second jab only affected me for a couple or so days; the Covid jabs (Pfizer) really didn't affect me anywhere near as badly as the shingles first jab; medications, for me, have always been iffy and, sometimes, risky; I have severe reactions to two commonly used pain/anesthesia medications, Demerol and Fentanyl, and that aversion has been a big problem when I've had procedures or surgeries since, given my age and conditions, other alternatives carry some even riskier side-effects or complications; I'm supposed to have spinal surgery to correct nerve damage in my neck and lower back, but, aside from the pandemic restrictions on 'elective' surgeries, the neurosurgeon is concerned about the risks on someone my age, let alone the risks of anesthesia...

Physical size and/or appearance of superior health doesn't always assure a benign reaction; many of us, I am sure, have experienced mass inoculations where you've stood in line and watched some big, healthy muscle guy get a vaccination only to crumble into a heap while the classic '98 pound weakling' guy just shrugs it off and strolls away...


I agree with El Whacko: the jab is well worth the trouble, given the possible alternatives if you catch Covid, the putative risks espoused by the tinfoil hat/conspiracists don't rely hold up in the bright light of scientific/medical fact; even the known and provable negative effects of the Covid jab are no worse,and, in many cases, way less and far less prevalent than the known effect of vaccines already widely in use and accepted by the vast majority of the public; you probably have a greater risk of enduring food poisoning from a fast food place than you do of having a serious effect from a Covid jab....


So, get the jab(s) ans stay safe...



<O>

[Jimbuna]

First Moderna yesterday.

I already feel the urge to buy Microsoft products :O:

:haha:

[Texas Red]

Not to mention too that in the pockets of people who aren’t vaccinated COVID can still spread almost at will, and then there is a chance that a new variant will come along from those places that is outside the protection of Pfizer and other vaccines; effectively restarting the pandemic all over again.

[vienna]

Well, not necessarily restarting the pandemic all over again, since a significantly smaller proportion of the population will be at risk, but Delta could very certainly ramp up the over-straining of medical facilities, personnel, and supplies, as in the first two surges; the virulence of the Delta Covid strain is staggering when compared to the strains already experienced; the US sate of Missouri, which has one of the lowest vaccination rates, might be a harbinger of what may be in store...


6 warning signs that the Delta variant is coming for unvaccinated Americans --

https://www.aol.com/6-warning-signs-delta-variant-090025183.html




5. Delta will hospitalize and kill unvaccinated Americans, especially in undervaccinated communities. Just look at Missouri.

There is one state right now that is leading the country in both new COVID cases per capita (at nearly quadruple the national average) and new hospitalizations per capita (at nearly triple the national average): Missouri.

In fact, nearly two-thirds of 30 U.S. counties with the highest current rates of hospitalization are in the Show Me State.

Not coincidentally, Delta now accounts for nearly 30 percent of Missouri’s new COVID cases, according to the CDC.

No other state comes close.

Across Missouri, hospitalizations are up 15 percent over the past two weeks. But in counties with lower rates of full vaccination — a quarter or less of the population — hospitalizations have tended to increase by something like 50 or 60 percent over the same period.

In Joplin, Mo., where the hospitalization rate is now higher than anywhere else in America, Freeman Health System announced Wednesday that it was reopening the COVID ward it had previously closed in March. Elsewhere, CoxHealth, a six-hospital system in southwestern Missouri, said last week that it may begin diverting some COVID patients to other facilities throughout the state due to surging admissions “associated with the Delta variant” — a “five-fold increase from less than a month ago.”

Meanwhile, local providers say pretty much every new patient has one thing in common: They’re unvaccinated.

“We’ve been seeing much younger patients needing management within the hospital — some as young as their late teens, in their 20s, in their 30s and, unfortunately, all of [them] unvaccinated and very sick,” Ivy Garcia, a critical care nurse at CoxHealth in Springfield, Mo., recently told ABC News.

“With the new variant in our area, these patients are getting sicker quicker,” added Leanne Handle, an assistant nurse manager of a medical surgical COVID-19 unit at the same hospital. “They are progressing through this spectrum very, very quickly. … [They’re patients] who don’t think that they’re going to get sick from it, who aren’t mentally prepared to make life-and-death decisions [like] do they want to be intubated, do you want CPR if your heart should stop.”

Missouri has had the misfortune of getting hit hard by Delta first. But it’s not an outlier. A dozen states — Mississippi (29 percent), Alabama (32 percent), Arkansas (33 percent), Wyoming (34 percent), Louisiana (34 percent), Tennessee (35 percent), Idaho (35 percent), Georgia (35 percent), Utah (36 percent), West Virginia (37 percent), South Carolina (37 percent) and Oklahoma (37 percent) — actually have lower full-vaccination rates than Missouri (38 percent), and in most of those states, more than 20 percent of seniors still haven’t received one COVID shot, let alone two.

Which suggests they’re probably just as vulnerable to Delta as Missouri — if not more so.


There are many reasons to suffer or die needlessly, but to do so merely for trying to make a cultural, social, or political point is really pretty damn senseless; while I do repect those with religious concerns or even deeply held medical concerns, the truth is the vast majority of those currently reusing to get a jab are doing so because of issues not covered by those concerns, but, rather out of some sort of individual stubbornness or as part of some group-think egged on by leaders with varied agendas more geared to the leaders' needs and wants than any regard for the actual well-being of their followers; for those who refuse due to individual 'exigencies', suffering and, perhaps, dying in quarantined solitude may fulfill their need to be truly 'individual' at their end; and, for those who cling to a lemming-like desire to follow their pack, well enjoy the trip over the clip, and remember, as I have often told people who I have known who wanted to try something needlessly risky just to be part of 'the gang', coffins usually hold only one, so those yo died for won't really be with you in the end, so decide wisely if lock-step marching is really a sound idea...

This may sound morbid, but the upside of the Delta strain ravaging its way through the willfully unvaccinated is it may be a prime example of Darwinism, with a thinning of those ill-equipped to really survive...


The CDC reported a couple of days ago, the reported rate of deaths attributed to Covid vaccinations effect is 0.0017%; the rate of those who have been reported hospitalized with the Delta variant who are unvaccinated is 99% of total admissions; choose wisely and be safe...

[Skybird]

Here on Northrhine Westphalia, prioritizing still is the official rule. You cannot have your name put on a waiting list if you are younger than 60 and have no doctor's attesting for a serious chronical desease.

At the same time the government claims we have cancelled prioritizing.

I checked (again) the official online portals to have your name registered for a waiting list. As of this morning these sites tell you they do not accept you if you are under 60 , have no attesting and no serious desease.



Because we have ended prioritizing.


At the same time a mayor from a city in the North demands to make life for unvaccinated people more unpleasant and exclude them from options in public life - to increase their willingness to get vaccinated. :arrgh!:

Logical, eh? Tzzzzz...

I would will to have my name put on a waiting list, or pull a waiting number. But I am not allowed and not accepted. No, we have no prioritizing - while we officially and formally practice it...

[Skybird]

Hehe, lucky dog I am. Got a call from my doc's office (hello, isn't it Saturday...?!) and they said they had a cumulation of reservations next week being cancelled by intended receivers, I could jump on the train on the fly and fetch one.

Well, a no-brainer.

Monday noon, BionTec. Second jab some time early August.

[August]

She just woke up and her fever has returned. Back to bed ...


Same shot laid me low for about 24-36 hours so her reaction is not unusual but once I slept it off I felt fine. The fact that her fever came back would worry the heck out of me.

[Jimbuna]

Oh, believe me: I was a little worried. But she seems to be doing just fine now. :yeah:

[Skybird]

So, first shot of BionTec. Arm fell off, carpet's a mess from all the vomits, and I'm bleeding from all body openings, but I can walk over water, the girls give me the eye again and I can see two colours now of which I did not know they even exist.

Why not, as long as I do not turn rainbow. :D

Surely you jest :D

The only people getting Covid-19 in the states are the people that didn't get the shot yet ... same with dying just the people that were not vaccinated.

of course the testing for Covid has really been reduced also.

All known data is considered to be corrupted :yep:

[Skybird]

Israel, UK: plenty of doublevaccinated get Delta. Point is they are infectous, yes - but they do not die and only a fraction of previous case numbers become seriously ill and hospitalzed. Thats what it is about. You may catch Delta, but it does not bring you down.


By timetable I will have full immunity effect not before mid august.


Being a bit tired this afternoon, like after sports or when having a mild flu. Nothing serious in vaccination effects so far.

[Jimbuna]

Just tough it out Sky....as you well know, it is worth it in the end.

[Von Due]

This took some time but first shot over with. For my colleagues, two had a bit of headaches and general pain for a few days, one experienced no side effects whatsoever. Oh well, guess I'll know in a few hours then what it's gonna be for me. Which one I got I can't tell. Forgot to ask :D The paper says Moderna - Pfizer so one of two.

[Eisenwurst]

A couple of days ago I got my first shot of AstraZeneca.

I was fine till 2am next morning.....then it was like someone flicking a switch.....shivers, cold sweat, headache, loose bowels, wind. I couldn't get back to sleep, next day I was very weak, but that night I got 12 hours sleep and now feeling much better and catching up with housework.

It's all worth it in the long run.

Next shot in mid Sept.

No paperwork though...."it's all online" they tell me.

[Randomizer]

2nd shot of Pfizer on 28 June with no side effects noted.

-C

[Admiral8Q]

Yes. And no side effects so far... AHHHH!!!

[Rhodes]

Halo, :Kaleun_Salute:
Got my first shot last Thursday, phizer! I was on vacation, so only today I post it here. Only sore to a bit of painful arm. No side affects or reaction to it.

And I am loving having 5g Wi-Fi any where I go now, It is a plus! :D

[vienna]

Wow...


...I hadn't heard of the 5g wireless side effect before...

Have an appointment Wednesday for my 1st shot.
I REALLY don't want to take the shots but with this new Delta and all the travel
I have to do with my job?
It comes down to the fact that odds are getting stacked against me!
:nope:

[magic452]

Got my first Moderna shot about 10 hours ago.
A little soreness in my arm but so far that's it.
Knock on a bulkhead.


Made plans for a bad three days just in case.

On the local news here in LA, a doctor at one of the hospitals treating Covid patients was interviewed about the whopping big increases in Delta variant cases and deaths in LA County; he cited the number of cases and deaths in a particular hospital as compared to just a few weeks ago and finished by stating the number of persons currently hospitalized for adverse Covid vaccination reactions and the number of deaths from Covid vaccination reactions was the same: zero...

Of course :O:, but here it seems they found out some of my integral.. systems are a bit different, so we delayed and do not know how i will react to such mrna vaccines, or if at all. Interesting experiment :haha:

I now have my two shots of Pfizer. I'm disappointed. I thought there would be ice and a little umbrella. What a rip. :nope:

[vienna]

You were obviously expecting the wrong kind of shots; besides, all the shots I've known are straight up in a shot glass; one shudders to think of the kind of places you patronize where they come with "ice and a little umbrella"... :haha: :03:...

[Skybird]

Last week I got another call from my doc's office, saying they want to give me the second jab another couple of days earlier, so the date got moved forward a bit for the second time, two or three days more. Next Tuesday it is now, 8 days earlier than originally announced, and 4 weeks and 1 day after the first shot. Its then almost August, and last year I estimated that I would not get full vaccination before early autumn. Well, almost precise estimation, one month early only. I want a prize! :)

Keep on mind guys, you do alter probabilities to not suffer a serious case in your favour. It does not mean you do not get infected. Although that chance also is a bit smaller then, and you may carry less virusses and for shorter time, which makes you a bit less infectous for other people as well.

Got TP :o

[Jeff-Groves]

Took 15 minutes waiting until I was injected. Then the 15 minute wait before I could leave.
At the end of the 15 minute wait the Lady asked me if I felt OK.
I asked her where the restroom was and her eyes got big.
"Why? Are you feeling ill?"
I answered
"No. I've been screwed around for 30 minutes now and I had to pee when I came in!"
:haha:

[Dowly]

Got my second stabbystabby yesterday. Again, no side effects at least yet.

[Skybird]

Second dart rammed into my shoulder this morning. No complaints I could make so far.

Almost boring, considering the show they make around it. I love to complain about something. Anything.

Second Phizer jab today. A little sore in the arm,but not as much has the first one.

And I see the number 5 and the letter G floating around when I close my eyes, but I think that's normal. :D

[les green01]

got the first one today against family doctor advice the one starts with Moder broke out itching,sick to the stomach,swell up throat think i should have stuck with the 200 percent proof shine

[iambecomelife]

Sorry to hear, les_green.

Moderna #1 for me. Friday at the local pharmacy downtown.

No problems that evening.

Very slightly flu - ish Saturday morning; minor runny nose and sore arm. I could have gone to work if I'd had to.

Recovered almost completely by 11:30AM.

Fine Sunday morning, except for sore arm - well enough to work on model of "HMS Bellerophon" for Silent Hunter 4. Finally solved a damage modeling bug and she capsizes nicely - woohoo!

Worked a full day in the office (instead of teleworking) today; no problems. Arm almost back to normal. Moderna #2 coming in September.

[Arlo]

The two parter, a while back. Complete with papers, sar. ;)

[les green01]

took bunch of Benadryl last night knock the itching and swell throat down sore arm don't really bother me getting use to that with older age the second one is sept 6 or around that time don't know if i will get the 2nd one or not

[Rockstar]

I got tested for antibodies the other day. I’m loaded up. I also don’t care if you wear a mask, believe in the second coming or put your pants on backwards.

Do you agonize over wearing your left shoe each day?

[Arlo]

Confusion over efficacy is just that, not caring about random things until it's too late to do the reasonable thing. If only you wore your pants backwards to the apocalypse gathering. :yeah:

[iambecomelife]

Still not feeling ill due to the vaccine - however, I noticed yesterday how badly out of shape I am due to lockdown & less exercise opportunities - I felt exhausted after cleaning my apartment; one year ago I would have felt fine. My doctor & I agreed more exercise won't hurt - plan to take up hiking again or jogging to improve my fitness this month. :yep:

[Skybird]

^

mRNA jabs are known to form the stronger symptoms after the second jab, while vector-based jabs have the tougher going after the first jab.

So it was for me. Nothing after the first (BionTech), and nothing in the first 12 hours after the second jab, as I wrote back then . But then in the following 12-18 hours, I was totally flat all of a sudden, in the night had a mild temperature, a very mild shaking, and over the day was so weak that I could not hold a glass filled with water with one hand, also the shoulder was sore and warm while I felt slightly cold, and I had a mild headache. Then, it disappeared as quickly as it came, within two hours or so. The next day I was totally fine again, and one day after that I went jogging again.


Since today I have officially and formally "full immunity protection", says the app.

[Catfish]

Got my second syringe last wednesday (august 4th '21).
This time the stab was a bit painful, seems she hit a nerve. Nothing happening for 18 hours, then ague (chill?) with fever and a bad night, all gone next morning.
They told me that Moderna is expected to be a bit more effective against Delta, i countered with my immunosystem i could now probably survive a direct meteorite strike. Which actually is not a good thing :wah:

I've had both mine. No problems with either jab

Got my second shot yesterday, bit of a sore arm but nothing else.:up::up:

Second shot this past Thursday.
Not even a sore arm.

I still wear a mask in many places.
Makes getting away with robbing them much easier!

Yeah, I think it kinda strange that two years ago a bank wouldn't allow you entry if you were wearing a mask but now you can't get in unless you're wearing one (at least here in the UK) :03:

[Jeff-Groves]

Yeah!
And Gas stations (Petrol Stations for some of you) now have gloves available to help hide your finger prints!
:up:

And don't worry if you forgot a mask. They'll provide those also!

Just need them to provide the Guns as tossing them after every robbery is expensive!
:doh:

[padi]

Got it in the summer, twice Biontech.
After the first one I was 5 weeks long not able to train like before, after the second one I could resume training after a week...

[Skybird]

Yea, dribbling the football with three feet can prove tricky at first.

So what is the authority that allows that?

I have no problem with businesses, or individuals, that pay taxes to dictate requiring a vaccination for emplyment. Aren't they "free" to operate as they see fit? Isn't that just capitalism at work?

[August]

Well the political double standards aside, personally I think that government telling a private company to deny or inhibit the rights and freedom of it's citizens is the same thing as if they did it themselves. Its one thing when you're talking about just a social platform but a far greater threat when it affects peoples livelihoods.

So show me how "the government" is making this happen. Making it a requirement for private business.

Maybe the same way they get social media companies to ban conservative voices, simply by asking them to do it. Does it matter?

[adrians69]

Got my last jab back in June

[ET2SN]

Got my first booster and third shot of Moderna today. Plus the normal flu shot in the other arm. If I'm a sick pup by tomorrow it won't be a surprise, normal flu shots usually whack me a bit. :yeah:

[iambecomelife]

Well, I got the second Moderna vaccine Friday and let me tell you.....

Felt fine coming from the pharmacy at 5:30pm. Had dinner as usual, spent a good evening.

Then, by about 8AM Saturday - terrible fever and chills. Sweating like a pig, not knowing whether to take off or put on more blankets.

10AM Saturday - fever and chills worse, now with severe muscle aches. I'm barely able to get out of bed. By now I'm parched, and drinking a lot to replace lost fluid.:doh:

6PM Saturday - I've been in and out of consciousness, falling asleep and waking up maybe a dozen times. I've started feeling a little bit better, so I have dinner.

11:30PM Saturday - After drinking a little more I wake up with nausea - quickly gets worse and worse - violent retching & vomiting about half an hour later.:Kaleun_Sick:

8:00AM - So far, an OK day - nausea almost gone, and body temperature nearly back to normal.

[Jeff-Groves]

One of my Work Mates had a similar thing with his second shot last week.
He said it only lasted a day though.
I had no reactions at all to both shots. Not even a sore arm.
Go figure.
:hmmm:

[Von Due]

Got my 2nd shot on Saturday (Moderna)
Sunday I was drifting in and out of sleep, mild flu like aches all over.
Today all fine, just mild pain where the needle went in, just like the first time, and I expect it to be gone in a couple more days, just like the first time.

[Sean C]

8:00AM - So far, an OK day - nausea almost gone, and body temperature nearly back to normal.


Glad to hear you're feeling at least a little bit better. Get lots of rest and stay hydrated.

[Platapus]

Got my booster shot today. So far no side effects. Even when I got my second shot, I felt a little "ugh" but that's all.


A number of my co-workers missed work after getting their second shot so it is understandable that some of them are reluctant to get the booster.



Despite the current recommendations, I am still going to wait 14 days before getting my Flu shot. No real need to rush that. Mid Oct was when I was planning on it anyway.

[vienna]

My first Pfizer shot put me down for about a week or two, but the second shot only slightly discomfited me for a day or two; I had a much, much more severe reaction to my shingles vaccine (out about 6 weeks), so the Covid shots were mild in comparison...


I won't be able to get my booster til December, but I am looking forward to it...






<O>

[Platapus]

Turned out that this booster knocked me on my butt. :(


But it passed in about a day. Weird that the other shots had no or minimal effect, but this one did.


Still glad I got it

[les green01]

got my last shot last month didn't have no side effects this time i took bunch of bengill before i took the shot i told them of the reaction i had on the first shot so they watch me close for an hour

[em2nought]

Gotta get the flu shot soon. So if one country has temporarily stopped Moderna for thirty year olds and under does that mean it's ok for those above thirty? I hope it doesn't mean "hey you old codgers are closer to death anyway so we'll roll the dice with you". :hmmm:

Get ready to take a ride. :yeah:

I did The Double Tap (flu shot and Moderna booster) last month at the VA hospital. I don't know if the nurse hit a nerve but I wound up with some Vaudeville Disease in one shoulder. You know, "Doctor, Doctor, it hurts when I hold my arm like this...". So, I'm not sold yet on getting both shots on the same day. :hmmm:

[Reece]

The wife and I just got our second jab of pfizer.

[Arlo]

So, I'm not sold yet on getting both shots on the same day.

You're not supposed to receive/they're not supposed to give both shots in one day.

[Zero Niner]

Been vaccinated since Apr, pfizer. Weighing whether to get a booster shot, health authorities here are encouraging seniors to do so.

[Jimbuna]

Third Pfizer jab booked for Mon 29th

[August]

I dunno, if J&J comes out with a booster maybe but no way am i taking those experimental mRNA versions.

[Jimbuna]

Third Pfizer jab this morning and no side effects so far.

[stoppro]

Booster shot no effects whatsoevery,orange buffalos are pretty.

[Skybird]

"Third jab player one." :yeah: Moderna this time, cross-vaccination (first two were Biontech).

[Skybird]

Im surprised, the night was not good and the shoulder really hurts, cannot fully move it still and it is very hot, much more than after the second jab (while the needle I did not feel at all, so its not that she hit a nerve or something). Hot flashes, and chills, cold sweat, much more so than last time.


I'm better now, but it was no fun this time. I think the immune system really understood no joking, and did serious business form beginning on, so in the end I see it all as positive.

[blackswan40]

Had my booster jab yesterday

Get well, isolate and after recovery wait some time before boostering - but booster when the time has come. Do not think the mild form of Covid gives you immunity like from a 2+1 vaccination, it has been shown to be wrong. Comparable immunity seems to be possible only if surviving a relatively intense and threatening case of the desease, and I would wish nobody to need to go that way. Post-mild-covid immunity does not compare to protection from vaccines. Mild desease - mild immunity, that simple it is. The protection also fades much faster over time.

Nope-local supermarket pharmacy. I NPQ'd out of college ROTC, the Navy and Army special forces after a comprehensive exam in '73 at Letterman hospital (S.F)....with polite letters from the surgeon general each time-so no VA benefit for me...then one day, God laughed. I was secundered to the MEPS in downtown Oakland for a week away from my 5 year station as Federal S.S. appeals court bailiff and NAS Hamilton Field policeman. (22 years total) On occasion, I also secured at then active Mare Island. I wasn't in the military...I guarded the military and two Bay area Congress womens' offices in bay area Federal buildings(Spanish speaking req'd) as needed from Santa Rosa to Sacramento to San Francisco & Oakland.:shucks: In short, I'm good enough to guard the military...just not be in the military!??:O::shucks:
