Has anyone received their vax yet?

[Calsun]

We are not expecting the two vaccinations to be available until sometime in March at the earliest. After the second vaccination is administered the antibodies in people increase by 6-12 fold and that is normal. One needs the second shot to get protection and they both need to be the same vaccine. The new administration has only been in office for a few days and they are busy cleaning the stables so to speak which is also to be expected.

The countries that had governments that were proactive in providing masks and doing testing and contact tracing do not need vaccines as desperately as they have literally 1000th the number of deaths from Covid-19. Taiwan with 23 million people has had a total of 7 deaths in 2020. Compare that to Virginia with only 8.6 million people and 6,174 deaths to date.

My wife worked 102 hours last week at Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga, TN during a COVID Vaccine Fair. They were calling all patients 75 years old and older to come get the vaccine. Nobody younger could get one.

I don't want to discuss the reason for covid-19. I don't want to argue what people believe about how it started.
With that said I got a virus about a year ago that had no cure or way to fight it.
What I will say is the timing for covid was perfect for my survival.
Anything I read about cures no matter how absurd, if I could get the items I did. Some worked some didn't do anything. Somethings I tried are not in this post but did keep me going for my search.

What I found worked and has been prescribed to family members and worked for them was:

My heathy daughter in florida used Ivermectin and it worked for her and her husband. (I have some on hand should it be needed)
Saundra's daughter in Minnesota was prescribed Zinc and sent home. In three days all symptoms were gone. (she is a severe asthmatic).
My lungs cleared up completely after I started using Zinc. Note that Zinc used with Quercetin (Replacement for Hydoxicloriquen) work together with vitamin C and D3 are a complete fix for this virus and most others.

I could without credentials tell you about how to treat this pandemic. I know I am still with you so that should say something. But it would be better if you all took a look at the this informative post and judge for yourself, if you really have enough to fear, to take an unproven shot in the name of experiment on humans questionable science. Remember that durring the avion flue epidemic vaccines of this nature were deemed to dangerous for humans and it stopped development in this country.

I get my 2nd dose at noon today. My sister gets hers this morning at 9.

LadyDi and I received our first dose of the Pfizer vaccine earlier today. When you’re older than dirt, you get to go to the head of the line. Of course, LadyDi is far younger than I , but got to the head of the line on her good looks. So far, no indication of a reaction to the vaccine.

The local hospital group doing the vaccinations ran the smoothest operation I’ve ever seen! In 20 minutes, we were checked in, vaccinated, observed for 15 minutes, scheduled for our second dose and sent down the road with a “Have a great day!” Well done, folks; well done!

Wife and I got our first dose two weeks ago and the second one next week. We got the Pfizer vaccine.

We have all, mother in law, wife, and I received now both doses of the Moderna vaccine. We received the first dose early in Feb and were scheduled at that time to return a few weeks later.
Here in Florida, Publix is approved to administer the vaccine to those who are eligible. (First Responders and Old Folks for now)
I just scheduled the first appointment online. As it turned out, Publix was a very organized, an efficient process. No wait, no crowd, just show up at the scheduled time, receive the vaccine, wait 15 minutes and then you are free to go. We were able to plan grocery shopping after the inoculation. Win Win.
A little redness and swelling at the sight of injection that lasted a few days. Otherwise life goes on as normal.

Michigan residents hiding from winter, in Arizona, just received 2nd dose of Pfizer vaccine 3-2-21. Injection site just a little sore, otherwise no side effects.

btw: retired from Pfizer sterile injectables plant in Portage MI. Although several years removed, I’m still proud that the manufacturing plant I poured so much of my life into is involved in this worldwide effort

 

[FL-JOE]

My FIL (93 years old) and my Mother (92 years old) both live in central Illinois. They have received both shots. Most of our kids in Illinois, with the exception of a daughter who is a nurse, and a DIL who is a doctor, have not been able to get the shots.

The DW and I just got our first shot yesterday in Polk County Florida. Very fast and organized. I knew from my experience in the military to keep my arm moving so I had zero soreness and no effects. The DW had some chills last night but feels great this morning.

Based on what we are hearing from friends here in our small part of the sunshine state is anyone 65 and over can call and get on the list, as long as you are residing in Florida for at least 3 months. The call back with the appointment is taking around 4 to 5 weeks. Florida doesn't care if you are a snowbird from Georgia or a snowbird from Germany, they are just trying to get as many shots into arms as soon as they get the stuff.

I've had both 1st and 2nd shots (Pfizer). No reactions to the 1st and very mild short term reaction to the 2nd.

Those who want to wear masks and get inoculated should do so. Those of us who do not believe in the issue of Coronavirus being the Plague, as it is being promoted, won‘t. The 98.6% survival rate, doesn’t merit giving up our rights, and sure as hell does not waive our Constitutional Rights to live, earn a living and enjoy our live. Knowing so many friends and relatives, who got Coronavirus and are back to work after that miserable flu, does not change our opinion on the subject.
There are too many unknown long term side effects, too many issues medical science are already questioning that confirms our desire to wait and see, without jump on the band wagon of just going along with the crowd. Our healthy 32 year old niec, very physically fit and athletic, had to receive the vaccination because she is a schoolteache. With 36 hours after the vaccination she was hospitalized and in ICU suffering from organs that were shutting down. Over a week later, she was still in the hospital. My wife’s Doctor had a healthy patient die just two days after his pat received the vaccination. Check out the VARES website for the number of vaccination deaths and injuries reported by medical professional. Use your own judgment. We choose not to participate.

If you had stopped here, it would be fine! This is not the place to go off into the philosophical/political world.

I got first round of Pfizer on Friday. My beautiful half is still waiting.

 

[rv4travlin]

My wife and I scheduled our shots on the same day, same time, so we could drive together. We live near Richmond VA. She is being sent to the Aurher Ashe Center, I'm being sent to the Richmond Raceway Park. Typical government workings.......

 

[Scooterfan]

Boy oh boy...it should be simple. If you want to get the vaccine then get it...if you don't, then don't. Problem is (or will be) is that for people that make an informed decision not to receive the vaccine their rights will be affected. Just wait an see. And that's the sad part of the story ?

 

[bowersrd]

My wife's a healthcare worker and we both contracted COVID in late January. She has since received both vaccines, but I am still waiting for the opportunity here in Louisiana. I'm retired military and even the VA hasn't reached my category yet. I'm hoping to get the single shot, but I'll settle for whatever is available.

 

[skychs]

I received my first dose (Pfizer) last week here in Richmond VA. I had a sore arm for a couple of days but that was it. My second dose is scheduled for April 9th via CVS. I wasn't too excited to jump on the bandwagon but as a Commercial Airline Pilot I spend a lot of time traveling so ...... the wife talked me into it. I was in the 1B category.

 

[Sunrise6]

Received my second shot three Saturday's ago and my husband got his second shot March 12. Just received notice from the VA that they are vaccinating VA's and their spouses at least here in PA. John is a veteran. I could have gotten it there. Both of us were in Group 1B. PA is also doing teachers, school staff, and bus drivers. There seems to be more clinics popping up locally every week which is very encouraging. I had Pfizer and John had Mederna. Neither of us had any reaction to speak of with either shot (first or second). Please go get your shots. The only way our economy is going to improve is if everyone gets vaccinated. Who cares what your political belief is. Medicine and your health is not politics.
