    Had my second Moderna shot Thursday in Colorado. Didn't wake up feeling 100%. Got stoned and still went snowboarding that day 😜. 
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.

    I’ll say it here: I’m fucking terrified of the second jab!

    The first threw me for a couple of days. Given my super low platelets and general ill health, I confess to having not-so-pleasant scenarios play in my head come next month. 

    Just gotta man up, so to speak, and bite the damn bullet.

    Anyone else in a similar position (ie, already compromised health)?
    Yes and no because you sound like you deal with shit everyday (sorry).  my 2nd moderna is coming up and I feel like you.  I vomited for 24 hours then just felt shitty for a whole week...but I had covid for 6 weeks last year so maybe that’s why my reaction was like that. Try not to think about it too much beforehand and I hope all goes well for you (a Blunt will help everything!) good luck! 
    Thank you!

    ^^^I'm grateful to have them both. Second shot a little tired but nothing extraordinary.

    Microbot infusion #2 complete.  Transition has been gradual, approximately half complete.  Though not fully functional, unit is capable of brisk 2 mile walk per 24 hour time period.   Shut down period commences, stat.

    I made a few microchip jokes and the nurses got a kick out of it - Moderna shot 1 on Saturday. "Okay I'm gonna sit here and register my government microchip..."

    Got my 2nd Moderna shot on Saturday.  Arm started getting sore that night, and I was pretty fatigued all day yesterday.

    Glad I am done with the shots for now!

    My wife and I received our first AstraZeneca shot about 5 minutes ago. The Alberta government approved 40-55 year olds to receive the shot today and I booked an appt at a local pharmacy. 
    Big relief really. 

    EDITED for accuracy above. 40-55 year olds.

    Canada’s hotspot. Hope you are holding up through the lockdown. 
    Glad to hear you got the vaccine. Thoughts are with my fellow Canadians out east. My wife’s family lives up highway 69

    Got my 2nd Pfizer shot this morning. Sore arm and tired, but feeling fortunate.

    Finally became eligible in Illinois last week.  Apparently I am not essential at all...and didn't want to be like the assholes who butted themselves to the front of the line before their turn.  Have my 1st shot scheduled for tomorrow.

    Trust me - you wouldn't be an asshole. If you qualify you qualify, and locations were throwing away doses because they're time sensitive. And we're now seeing supply outweigh demand.

    Pfully vaccinated as of last Pfriday (as you can guess, Pfizer).  So the target date for maximum efficacy is 4/30.
    Definitely had it worse the second round, but it still wasn't bad.  Typical shoulder soreness.  Had full body aches shortly after I woke up Saturday.  Lasted all day into the evening when I could finally feel it starting to let up.  Went to bed and woke at 1am with no aches, feeling pretty much normal with a very minor headache and stuffy nose.  When I got up Sunday morning, those had subsided as well.  Didn't have any reactions or symptoms from the first round.  But reactions from the second round means it's working, so I'll take that as a plus.

    Oh yeah I get that but there were lots of people who did not qualify that were still getting the vaccine early in the rollout instead of the people who needed it much more.  That shit just rubs me the wrong way so I waited for my turn.
