I'm in Pfizer's COVID vaccine trial, ask me anything.

That's what the first Moderna one felt like too. Wish I would have had the one shot option but at least I'm getting it.

24hrs after the stab - so far the only side effect is feeling like someone punched me in the arm.

[bored383]

I just got the one and done Johnson&Johnson stab today - thank you, Operation Warp Speed!

[Grendel]

Just did the Moderna Saturday (1st shot0 and was fine until Sunday morning when it felt like someone had kicked me in the arm and a mild annoying headache. Monday morning feel fine with just little residual arm soreness

I avoid the doom-and-gloom news coverage peddling nightmare scenarios for clicks. No one can truly predict the future with certainty and there's nothing I can do about it anyway so I choose to stay positive.

The word you are looking for is not ethical but obligatory.

So far the protection is holding, even against the new variants that are circulating. Coronaviruses, fortunately, mutate more slowly than something like influenza, but it's possible (I even lean towards likely) that this will end up like the flu with a yearly shot designed for "this year's" strains. Luckily, that'll be pretty straightforward, from a technical standpoint. We have the whole vaccine ready (several of them), so they might just need a little tweak year-to-year, but that's easy.

Diomedes, is there any indications yet as to permanency of the vaccines? Does it look like once is enough or will this be yearly like flu shots?

[Dragunov151]

A lot of my family got the jab already 2 got Pfizer and 3 got moderna.The 3 that got the moderna all had some side affects.Mostly fever,arm pain ,headache,nausea.I notice that they are testing the boost shot for the other variants.How many boost shots can you get in a year since there’s a new variant comming every other week.

[Brokeass_baller]

Yes. It's completely ethical.

[DocsMachine]

I have a question: Is it ethical to hunt down and shoot- twice, in the head- the people that have started sending me spam telling me how I can either- for a small fee- get on the vaccination lists, or get my "vaccination stimulus" check if I just send them my bank information, or how my check can't be deposited until I re-verify may bank details and supply a social security number?

Doc.

Got shot #2 yesterday...so far, just overall fatigue and headache, joints feel hot and sore..so so far kinda like a bad flu effect.

[Jebus]

Canada sucks.... Maybe June before I can get it? My Boss is trying to get us ours early since we are go in LTC, Hospitals, Seniors Retirement homes daily.

[Meleager7]

just checking in to see how your Salamander tail growth nub is progressing?

[Diomedes]

All this sounds familiar to me - had a rough 12 hours or so starting about 12 hours after the second shot, and that was it. Numbers are looking up, vaccination rates increasing. May is going to be a VERY different world. And I can't freaking wait.
