We had a lot of our older neighbors get the shots last week. I’ll wait to see if they start growing extra limbs before i commit
Received our 2nd Moderna this morning. So far we’re both fine. Intentionally have no plans for tomorrow, just taking it easy.
Old Fuks and computers. Once had an ignorant dumb shit, about 15 years younger than me, tell me, “I bet you’re one of those old pricks who don’t believe in computers and wouldn’t have any idea how to work one if you did.” Then I showed him a photo of the bridge of my ship looking aft. Look forward and there’s even more. He said no more. Stupid Fuk. View attachment 978002

Things have come along ways since my navy days (80's) sitting in front of this.

I'll start a new thread this evening with Navy in the title rather than hijack this any further.What am I looking at and what did you do? If you don't mind telling thanks.
Thanks for sharing. Please keep an eye on your fever. Thats pretty high. Hope you feel better!I received the first dose of the Moderna vaccine at 9am yesterday.
Arm got sore around 3pm.
Then, a fever started around 9pm.
By 2am- I was between 102.2-102.6 and tynenol didn’t help much at all.
Didn’t sleep at all and feel very achy and weak today. Still have a slight fever. Hoping this is over in 24 hours.
I do have autoimmune issues so that could be why my side effects sucked.
Thank you! Fever is gone today! Feel so much better. Hopefully the second dose won’t affect me that badly!Thanks for sharing. Please keep an eye on your fever. Thats pretty high. Hope you feel better!
Wife and mother in law got the Johnson and Johnson shot yesterday. Wife got nausea, chills, headache and fever 102 about 6 hrs later. It passed in about 8 hrs. Just a little tired this morning.
Mother in law is a headache. I mean had a headache.
We are considered a rural county.. no urgent care or hospital. The way I understand it, they are doing the JJ vaccine in counties that don't have the ability to store at the extreme Temps.I knew it was arriving this week. Good to hear they are getting it in arms. Should be a very effective tool with the single shot dose and the regular storage temperature.
That generation is on a different level of toughness92 year old Father got 2nd shot yesterday (Moderna)
22 hours in, 0 effects
Korean War Marine, not surprised

That's what this thread is for, info on the vaccines so you can decide what vaccine if any to get. I'm leaning towards the J&J since it's more conventional.I originally intended to not get the vaccine. However, it is looking more and more, that I will eventually be "unofficially required" to get the vaccine for work. I am not an anti-vaxxer. I had all my childhood vaccinations. I had to get all of them again about 10 years ago for work, because the anti-bodies weren't showing up any longer. My kids all got all their childhood vaccinations.
If I am going to have to get the vaccine, I have some questions:
Do I wait as long as possible, or just get it now?
Do I try to get the Johnson & Johnson one that isn't mRNA?
My Parents both got both shots with no side effects. They are late 77 and 79. My Dad is an Ox that doesn't eat healthy and smokes, but never gets sick. My Mom is a type 1 diabetic who had a kidney removed due to kidney cancer, and is on dialysis. Side Note: The kidney can was discovered by a Sonographer who was scanning something else on my Mom, and told her to roll over so she could look at her kidneys just because.
Mrs. RogerThat99 got her first shot 2 weeks ago, with no side affects except her are was a little sore and the injection site was red. She ran 24 miles the next day. Her second shot is scheduled in 2 weeks. I don't remember which vaccine she got.
But...I heard a doctor in an interview say that not 1 person was hospitalized, and not 1 person died in the J&J trials.That's what this thread is for, info on the vaccines so you can decide what vaccine if any to get. I'm leaning towards the J&J since it's more conventional.
Edit: just saw on the news that as they follow the test subjects that already received the J&J it appears it is 80+% effective.

Had to take my daughter in for a Covid TEST this morning, so if she comes back positive, we'll see how well the Pfizer vaccine works! My hands look like a mason's hands they are so dry from being washed so much today, lol.
I don't think she has Covid, but she went back to in-person school last September, so anything is possible. Covid test was super simple. Of course, the fucktards at Kaiser didn't have any options available, so I searched for a test thru the County at 10:00 a.m., and by 11:15 a.m. we were done - drive-by swab test administered via Curative.
Updates - 83-year old MIL in chemo still fine after her shot last Wednesday; SIL received her first Moderna today without any issues.
I feel better about the J&J but I still want to see a few more posts about it's side effects, so far with the 2 posts it's looking consistent.Nobody really answered my question about how the Anti mRNA people feel about the J&J vaccine.
Sorry Scott, I meant to ask my brother about that today but forgot. I do know he is very positive about the new technology. He's terribly disheartened about the misinformation that is circulating in the mainstream.Nobody really answered my question about how the Anti mRNA people feel about the J&J vaccine.
