I did a double take while reading this and another article about the same thing on CNN.

It's so rare these days the the opposing parties will agree on anything.

Either way, I think I'll go to my Publix today and sign up. When I was there yesterday there was a little setup right inside the front doors where I think you can register to get the shots.

60 Minutes faces backlash for 'deceptively edited' Ron DeSantis piece

Sunday's episode of the once-venerable CBS News program revealed that weeks before Publix landed the lucrative contract, the chain donated $100,000 to DeSantis' PAC.

I had mine shortly before Christmas (the hospital still lists me as an employee). Pfizer. The arm was sore for a few days, and after the 2nd shot it felt like I was hit by a truck. Slept a good 14 hours after that one.

From what I am hearing, the second shot is usually stronger reaction since it kicks up the anti-bodies from the first shot and you feel that. For me and my wife, I think we reacted to the first shot since we still had covid anti-bodies in the system which got kicked up.
 
I've heard that it's a little random for who has more side effects, but older people tend to have less of a reaction than younger people. I think the speculation is that younger people's bodies fight the vaccine more.
 
So there are no shots in my county or my surrounding counties. They have them in the county south of Disney, Polk, but IDK. That seems like a big hassle. I'm just going to wait and try again on Friday.
 
I have heard some stories of people 50+ having reactions, but nothing serious. One lady got a rash all over her back. Another felt like she had Covid again for a couple days (but not as bad).
 
They use a health department website to schedule appointments up here. I checked a couple of times a day since doses would get shipped to places at different times.

Out of the millions getting the shot or shots, there are bound to be a few horror stories. It's the same with the flu shot. It sucks for them, but doesn't really mean anything for the public at large.
 
Way to go Moderna!

Moderna's Covid vaccine is effective against the California variant

In one study, Duke University researchers found antibodies generated by the Moderna coronavirus vaccine had two times less neutralizing power against the California variant.

2x less is still enough apparently.

My aunt told me today that with just 1 shot, after 2 weeks, you are 75% protected. Not sure where she got that from but I tend to just believe her when she says stuff. She's smart and started her career as a nurse so she probably knows what she's talking about.
 
Don’t let down your guard though.

The Mrs. gets her 2nd shot this morning. Mine is a week from Monday.
I’ll be looking into the CDC recommendations for what should be OK to do after the 2nd shot then.
 
Ontario in another stay-at-home order for 4 weeks. So tired of this. We have been in some sort of lockdown since November.
