Just got our 2nd Moderna shots this morning,

[duforsure]

Hoping we have few issues , but not sore at all. Very organized and fast at the vaccine site, and took 35-40 minutes total.

1. yay!!!!! its a good feeling isnt it?

[duforsure]

9. Yes it is, but I'm still having to be careful,

With major health issues , and living in Texas where Abbott is doing everything he can to do like trump making it worse , I have very little chance of surviving if I were to get it, and have to wait until a lot more have been vaccinated before venturing out much. Biden is getting people vaccinated now in huge numbers, and expected to raise daily rates a lot higher.

2. A friend in San Diego said ...

He had no problems with Moderna shot #1,
but about a week of flu like symptoms after shot #2.

3. My brother is scheduled for his 2nd Moderna jab tomorrow.

He had a horrible reaction to the first because he had Covid, early last year. He said it was like a 36 hour flashback. Hopefully this 2nd jab will be much easier for him.

I'm still 2 weeks out from my 2nd Pfizer jab. The first was completely non-eventful.

5. Me too,same time frame. I'm hoping but it still beats the alternative. n/t

13. There are recommendations out there that people who have had Covid only need one shot

Some studies said two shots are overkill for these people. Second shot did not add any more antibodies - just caused more severe reactions.

15. The school system he works for is vaccinating all of their employees

He got sick really early in the pandemic - when they were telling people to stay home, if they can. He never went for an antibody test because he knew, from all of the symptoms, that it was definitely Covid. He said he's never been so ill, in his life. Since he was never 'officially' diagnosed, I doubt he'd be given the option, by the school system, of not taking the 2nd jab. I think (but could be wrong) that it really isn't an optional thing for the bus drivers. At least not the non-union ones.

8. On the bright side...

Those issues mean it's working.

I hope they are few, though.

11. Congrats!! I got my Pfirst Pfizer injection yesterday. After about 8 hrs I got the sore arm but

nothing to write home about.. Like a good workout at the gym sore. Slept like the dead last nite and woke up with a slight cough and very minor sore throat, no headache. Kinda sorta like you are gonna get a cold but don't get it.. her
Second "jab" at the end of the month.. The county health dept had their stuff together. Very well run, in/out, done..

14. 2nd shot is kicking my elderly dad around pretty good.

For me so far, the worst reaction I’ve ever had still is to the 2010 H1N1 influenza vaccine.

That one was NOT fun.

[moonscape]

19. Oh,, I hope my 2nd on Sunday kicks

me around too. I want confirmation this immunocompromised old body can still make lots of antibodies. Good for your dad.

[roamer65]

22. Not to the level of my dad.

[mackdaddy]

16. I am scheduled for my first Modernal shot tomorrow!

First day for my group!

[NNadir]

17. Mine's in 10 days. A few people told me it was harder than #1, but I can't wait.

It's a very, very, very cool vaccine, at the cutting edge.

23. My wife got her second one on Monday.

Knocked her on her ass for a day or so. Finally feels better today. She was in bed all of yesterday with chills and a slight fever. She only had a headache after the first one.
