Is there a "got my vaccine" forum?

Got my first shot today - Moderna. No choice there. I would have preferred Pfizer, mainly because it wasn't part of a government program under you know who. But it's a vaccine, so there's that.

NH kind of screwed up the process of spouses getting shots at the same time as each other. My wife got her vaccine right away. Since I was a plus-one, or third party, as they called me, that slowed things down a bit. I had to wait about 15 minutes before they could find me in their system. That said, it was quick, and everyone was extremely professional and friendly, as in, hey, we're all in this together, so let's be civil to each other.

Kudos to the National Guard personnel as well as to the civilians - not sure if they were volunteers or employed by the National Guard or some other local or state organizations, or the local hospital. Apart from the admin glitch, no waiting, no delays. So the scheduling is working fine. One of the National Guardsmen mentioned that although there were in Keene just 2 days a week now, they are going to 7 days a week sometime soon. Which suggests some degree of confidence in vaccine supply.

Right now we're scheduled for the second dose in 8 weeks.

And I'm not sure I'm included in that second dose date with my wife. NH screwed up the couples thing pretty badly.

As for the date, it falls into the "it is what it is" category. I think we can keep trying to get an earlier date, which could happen as they move vaccine sites to open all week.

So, we'll see.

They already gave me a scheduled date for #2 in 28 days, Moderna
