Vaccine risks vs. reward

[Irwin]

Wearing facemasks protect others. I believe the jury is still out on whether or not you can still contract the virus from a fully vaccinated person.

The latest information is that it's extremely rare for someone who is vaccinated to catch covid and even more rare for them to spread it if they do catch it and even more rare than that for someone who has been vaccinated to catch it from a vaccinated person who caught covid, although there probably will be that one-in-300-million case where that happens and it will make front page headlines and people will say they're not going to get vaccinated because of it.

I just got a Pfizer covid shot 4 hours ago (at Target of all places) and I have no symptoms so far.
I think if you're going to have a reaction it happens within minutes.

Thats great to hear Lara. I'm sure you'll have no problems.

Well...just to set the record straight...I did have second thoughts about that statement...came back to remove it... but... the thread was already locked.
The reason being, if I remove myself from those three topics, there is very little else to hold my interest, so onward and upward as they say

And I have some ocean front property right here in the New Mexico desert I'd like to interest you in....

Not always. Just keep an eye on things. My mom had a friend who had a stroke 30 hrs after her vaccine.

It's difficult to make a decision based on good science when there isn't much of it.

A problem faced by all of the sea captains who set out on voyages of discovery. They just had to rely on the known science of their time. Life is full of risk.

Lara.. with the Pfizer , the first is said to be problem free..it's the follow up that causes the problem (if there is to be any).

The Moderna is the opposite....

I got the Pfizer vaccine, on both occasions I had a sore arm,
plus I felt very sleepy for a couple of days.

I hope that you don't get any symptoms Lara, many people
don't.
