Just got Moderna. No pain @ all. Second dose February 11th. LFG!

Congrats!

Spurred me to sign up in NJ, and I am at high risk due to my own age and medical status, as well as my work environment.

I'm on the NJ list now, but have no idea where/when. I gather they will notify me by text or email?

next Wednesday. I had a close friend die from COVID recently. She was very healthy and only 44.

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...

Hopefully ASAP.

Thank you. The local paper just posted a story about her. Our families are best friends. It's been really hard.
Link - ( New Window )

families are best friends, and Dr. Zivic sounds like a jewel. Someone who matterred to many.

My heart goes out to you, your family,and hers.

Pete, my condolences. From that article, she sounded like a great woman. And to leave two young children behind...no words.

definitely an amazing person. It’s impossible to describe the sadness, anger, and frustration that everyone is going through.

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.

Didn’t you have to wait 15 minutes after the vaccine before leaving.

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

Painless. Scheduled 2nd shot in 4 weeks.

out of the scheduling in NJ. They added smokers as at risk people so there are now 2mil more ahead of me, Im 64 with no risk factors. However the health comm said you can enroll and NO documentation is required to prove your classification. So essentially you can show up and say your 1A and not have to prove it.

my first Moderna dose yesterday. It might be a coincidence but I woke up feeling really good this morning. My arm doesn't even hurt.

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.

..she was down with flu-like symptoms all Christmas day, then fine. She got her second dose on Monday and spiked a 102.6 fever that night and was down with flu-like symptoms until around 8pm last night. It's affecting different people in different way.

today. I’m guessing the immune response is zapping my energy.
