Who is Fully Vaccinated or Will be Soon.

My husband and I got our second dose on March 1st so we are fully vaccinated. The only side effect was my husband's arm was sore for just a few hours after the injection.

That is great, hopping for the same. No illusions it's a perfect solution, but a necessary one for me...

Happy to report I'm finally done, wishing all can get some relief from everything...

Which vaccine did you get, @jujube?

We just came back from getting our first shot of Pfizer. Would have preferred Moderna, but there is no choice. My sister, who has had numerous cancers, was given the Astra Zeneca vaccine, which is rather worrying.

At least we were given the top two which are highly effective and longer lasting, all this before the general public roll out or shortages.... Did not want the J and J
 
I had my 2nd pfizer shot yesterday morning. My arm was super sore at bedtime and still sore (not as bad). But this afternoon I developed the most extreme apathy, then I got chills and now I have a 101 fever (38.3), also stiff and achy.

I was really worried by the apathy, I took this week off work and I was afraid the apathy meant I'd get bored with retirement on day 4!

I felt the same with the first round of Moderna, this time around on my day four after vaccine arm does not hurt at all.

Having a bit of overheating, 96.4 to 96.8 F, not a fever, keeping it under control with an ice pack and frozen fruit bars and a small fan.

I'm trying to add to my skills, by taking an online course. Planting flowers, avoiding horrible news...having a goal helps .

Not sure if this makes any sense, did anyone have the virus and gotten over it, then getting the vaccine much later, I can be sure

I had covid last October and got my 2nd Pfizer shot today. I did see an expert suggest waiting at least 6 months and even better 8 months from when you had covid to get the vaccine. I didn't see the article till after I had my first shot or I would've waited a couple more months. I was right at the 6 month period.
Both Spain and France only recommend one shot for covid survivors. I've seen articles saying the same we likely only need one as having covid is like getting the first shot for people who haven't had it and then actually getting the 1st shot is like someone else getting the 2nd. Makes sense. A study showed for a person who's had covid the first shot increased antibodies a thousand fold but the second shot had no effect.

I had my first 12 weeks after testing positive - was cleared by my doctor to do so. Moderate symptoms from the vaccine lasted about 36 hours. I get my second jab in a couple of weeks.

Since US policy is for everyone to be fully vaccinated (two Moderna or Pfizer), regardless of whether they've had Covid, that's what I'm going to do.

If it turns out that we'll need to show proof of vaccination to attend certain events, I'd rather not have to provide explanations for only one vaccine round.

Having lived long enough to see bureaucracy in action many times, I have a good idea how this might spin out at an airport, cruise terminal, concert venue, campground, etc.

You did what needed to be done, with limited information, either way, the best outcome going forward, we have so much to deal with...

For the proof factor, no interest in being in large crowds.
 
Hang on to your newly named "Vaccine Passport." They are being sold on the black market and even if you don't need it now, you may need it later. Some airlines, cruise liners, motels, grocery stores, theaters and even work places are talking making it mandatory for you to have one to enter their place.

I read somewhere that Staples is laminating them for free, but I would ask first.
 
I got my second Moderna vaccination Tuesday around noon. I was great for the first 20 hours. I went for a 3 mile walk that afternoon and a 1 mile walk the next morning. The afternoon and evening of the next day I was tired, achy and had a bit of a headache but not a bad one. The next morning I felt good enough to the my 1 mile walk with the dogs but was run down until about 10 AM. I felt good enough to do another three mile walk again that afternoon.
