Sister in law said she has some weakness and fatigue after hers. She said her arm hurts like hell though.Second shot is in.... will report if anybside effects.
I read about that. I do have a history of anaphylaxis, came pretty close to dying from it in 1987 after eating lobster. Over time I've come to the conclusion that it was THAT lobster (which tasted off) and not all lobsters since I have eaten shellfish of other types with no problems. But to err on the side of caution I don't eat it. I've also had milder reactions to brazil nuts--just cause my lips to itch and swell. Hey doctors, do I need to mention this to them?Just saw on the news that there have been 29 severe allergic reactions reported so far. Now, that sounds scary but it's out of 5,000,000 vaccinations given. If you don't have a history of severe allergic reaction like anaphylaxis, you should be okay.
My wife is one of those people and likely won't get the vaccination because of it, and that, along with children who can't get it, makes it more important for people who are able to get the vaccination to actually get it.
edit: When it's available to you, which is another situation...
More information is never a bad thing to give them. Sure as heck beats ending up in a hospital.I read about that.

True, but I don't want to be told I can't get it because of something that happened 34 years ago, too. I can err on the side of caution but I'm not sure I want them to. Ha!More information is never a bad thing to give them. Sure as heck beats ending up in a hospital.

Pfizer. Feel more poopy today than I did with the last one, but apparently that's expected
Just tested positive for COVID today. In the beginning of the week, I was showing pretty strong symptoms for a guy my age (23) and my health, high fever which drained the energy from me, a severe headache and the losing of the sense of smell and taste. Because of the headache, I was also feeling nauseous for a few days.
It's going better now, but for a few days there all I could do was just lay in bed. I'm quarantined for the next 10 days, fortunately I can work and study from home.
Would people really have been mad if the NHL had made a private purchase of 10,000 doses of vaccine, and basically gave everybody their first shot when they reported to town, and their second one a week or two into the season or whatever it would take?Lol haven’t even dropped the puck and COVID has already caused disruption.
Dallas Stars push season opener due to COVID-19
Both have returned for her, she’s symptom free now and in day 10My friend who is a healthy 25 year old got COVID in September. He still can't smell which is wild to me.

So what I'm thinking is there isn't really "a line", per se. Oh sure, maybe there is if you are waiting to receive from the government stock at some level via your local health care provider. But those contracts are already in place and those lines are already formed. And still the vaccine manufacturers have stock sitting in their warehouses. Or is that incorrect? There's in theory nothing wrong with phoning them up and signing a contract to buy some vaccine via private contract? I know in December there were news articles to the effect that that was precisely what the NHL was planning to do. But then they backed off, I presume due to a perception of bad PR.There are lots of folks who need the vaccine more than multi million dollar athletes. I get the trickle down economic effect of having the league play, and not all the benefits go to those athletes and the much wealthier owners, but it reeks of elite that are always the first in line.
I'm jonesin' for NHL too, but I could live with an off year too. We lived through lockouts and we can live though a pandemic off year.
MPHD creates 'Standby List' to ensure no COVID-19 vaccines go to waste
I signed up. I may get spam mail from the Department of Health for the rest of my life but I'll take that chance. I think it's a good move to try to avoid wasting doses.
I'm not, either. From everything I've read my health issues are not bad enough to bump me up (I see that as a good thing) so I'll be eligible when my age rolls around. Looks like March or April, if they get enough vaccines in.I am not in an eligible group as yet, for a shot. I just try to avoid going out in public.
