in NY the vaccine is being made available to people 65
ny.gov/vaccine
The spots are in high demand. We got 3/14 as first available for my wife.
I am in health care so I have had my 2 doses. I had no problems with shot.
Good luck to everyone on this site.
i'd have my parents go get theirs but we all just got over covid last week so we're safe for what 3 months?
They are moving quick
Want to be vaccinated by my NY trip mid May
If not have to wait till July to take it
I am in phase 1c essential worker
That’s already being done.

Maybe other MFGs will be allowed to produce the vaccines on license so more are produced.
That’s already being done.
Had not heard that and that is great. Thanks Jim.

I know a lot of people in medicine that are getting their fam vaccinated outside the line so I’m sure a % of doses are being misappropriated all over.
Family is in healthcare administration and do not see this happening at all. It’s limited distribution sites. Most healthcare workers would be appalled at the thought of this given what they have went through.
It's a mess.
Check out this article...kind of interesting.

the research studies cannot be done from home
we would not have the vaccine without the research labs

If that’s a response to the article, I’m not sure it is one. Nobody here appreciates research labs more than me, I can guarantee you that. And nobody here knows or respects what they’ve done to advance the COVID response more than me. But, valuable research need not be rewarded by limited vaccine. There’s chaos because protocols and priorities are not being clearly defined or clearly followed.
Not sure which hospital you mean but the one across the street from me is a repository and is giving it out freely to employees from what I understand. This hospital has a med school and grad school component and a friend who is a professor in the grad school (teaches and does (non-COVID research) got vaccinated. Her lab is in a fairly distant wing from the hospital part.
January 2021 here to spread some conspiracies.
No idea what that means
I think I’m 1C too. Weird blurry lines in IT. Plus I’m healthcare IT but not facing interacting w anyone. Who knows...

Orange County is already vaccinating 65+ year olds. Disneyland is one of the vaccination sites.
I will wait my turn like most people should and pray my wife gets it sooner with her health issues.
The medical school made the vaccine easily accessible to it's employees
the other system used a very tiered system of who could get the vaccine first and it has been much less effective in getting it's employees protected.
Pfizer or Moderna? Just curious
Congrats!
I'm on the NJ list now, but have no idea where/when. I gather they will notify me by text or email?
So sad to hear your loss, Pete. Saw well put together segment on PBS news last night on recurring long term pulmonary and/or vascular symptoms of young, healthy adults who have already recovered from Covid. Many very disturbing symptoms of vascular weakness and failure.
I work in an area where far too many people have swallowed the "Covid is fake news" horse pucky. In retail, have daily confrontations with non mask wearers...

Thank you. The local paper just posted a story about her. Our families are best friends. It's been really hard.

My heart goes out to you, your family,and hers.
Didn’t you have to wait 15 minutes after the vaccine before leaving.

At the Javits center, it’s pretty obvious that the issue is with supply. They could easily turn 1000 people over an hour. I know we all want to point the finger at whose fault this is that it’s taken time but there are only a handful of people in the world who know how to manufacture this new type of vaccine. It’s going to take a WWII type of effort from the govt to figure out who to assist these companies in manufacturing.

I did, they had seating at every step for a few hundred people, I was in and out I. 20 minutes

The way they are doing it in SC is a 15 minute wait after the shot to make sure there is no reaction and for those who have had allergic reactions in the past or are susceptible - a mandatory waiting time of 30 minutes afterwards.
