My husband got his first vaccination.

He just became eligible. He registered online today and got an appointment right away. What a surprise! He had Moderna and feels fine so far. Didn't even feel the needle.

I'm not eligible yet. But he does the grocery shopping, so he's out more than I am. I can't tell you how relieved I am that he's on his way to full vaccination!

it didn't look there was a plan here either. He was very surprised to get in so quickly.

There are a lot of people around here who refuse to get vaccinated, including in many medical offices.

Pfizer vaccine; no strong reaction to first shot.

From what I've read here, it seems like there are fewer reactions with Pfizer. I'm very likely to have a reaction, but Moderna is our only choice here for now.
