Are you going to take the vaccine?

And I know a cardiologist (he works at a hospital and the staff got administered with the vaccine) and he noticed nothing after the first shot, after the second a couple weeks later, however he had the symptoms a bit like the flu, fatigue , headaches and muscle aches.

That is pretty standard for vaccines.

It’s actually nothing to do with the actual virus it is your immune system recognizing a threat and mounting an immune response. (though this threat is not actually capable of duplication of the virus so safe)

You should’ve seen me after my flu shot this year.
I’m pretty sensitive vaccine wise. My immune system always over reacts but that just means it’s primed the body with antibodies so that’s good.

In the old age home unfortunately 2 things full immunity takes 2 doses, then 2 weeks to build up from there. Vaccine dependent the minimum gap between first and second dose is 21-28 days. In between all that time people are still at risk unfortunately.

Add that they are seniors who often due to lowered immune systems require a larger dose of vaccine to get the same result(4 times as strong for flu shots) and you are going to have slower immunity building for sure after the first shot regular dose.

I would assume even after the second their immune system not being as effective will both take longer to build antibodies and maybe not reach the 90% effectiveness. We don’t know but since they are so vulnerable we have to try.

Edited I know a lot of medical professionals that have had the shot no effects reported. I’m not sure who has had first or second because they are so playfully braggy, and excited about getting it that I in my very mild jelousy haven’t asked.

I don’t get jealous of much but I’m around so many people closely due to work I feel like a walking disease vector and having been vaccinated would ease my mind I’m not killing people by being an asymptotic carrier.

I assume that’s exactly why they are all excited too so I of course do not begrudge them getting it first. I too just don’t want to accidentally kill one of my lovely clients just by existing in their presence.

They all work in hospitals and clinics so obviously they need it first and yeah there has been absolutely nothing but excitement at getting vaccinated. They all seem a bit like kids getting an exciting present so I assume it’s been pretty stressful on the front lines for them. Well potential to have to see less people in their care die probably is exciting too.

Ok no longer jealous at all. Just looking forward to knowing I won’t accidentally kill any of my clients who often get to close because they have been clients for years, we have built up bonds and they feel both I’m a safe person and are lonley after being locked down for so long.
