Got the first moderna vaccine today while at work. I will get the second at end of January. Hope it works and becomes a benefit and a blessing to many or all of you-hope to see you all safe and happy and hunting again soon-!

 

[steve white]

Could we all safely hunt anywhere is we got that?

Wish I had the answer to that one and many other questions-there is talk of using vaccination cards in conjunction with passports. . . Time will tell but I think safe travel and tourism are coming soon-all countries rely heavily on the revenues.

I think if your vaccinated you are safe. You may still be able to pass it on. I don't think they know for sure.

Got my first dose two weeks ago. Should have reasonable immunity by now. It is a good feeling. Hope everyone can lay low a little longer until they get their vaccine and then the world can start again.

I sincerely hope you dont experience any side effects, especially the unknown ones that may surface years down the road

There could be some side effects. I just feel that having covid would maybe have a bigger chance of bad side effects. I figure if an old man like me wants to travel I'm going to have to get the vaccine.

It seems that such a document will be more important than a passport

The VA has e-mailed me that they will contact me when it's my turn for the vaccine- based on my risk factors. I'm guessing it will be towards the end of January. I'll take in my shot card that is part of my passport to have it updated to show that I received shots for Covid as well as the older diseases (basically the tropical/third world ones). So when the world gets "herd immunity" the politicians can move on to some other crisis and open up travel and restaurants.

of course, this is more convenient, but the forms of inserts in the passport are a document of strict accountability, and it is not easy to provide them to all hundreds of millions of vaccinated people, and it is not necessary. Apparently, in the future it will be necessary to change such certificates for the insert in the passport, who will need it. I grafted "Sputnik-V" yesterday, the second component will be at the end of January, Inshallah. So far, everything is going according to the instructions.

"A young dog speaks to an old one: look, people have also started wearing muzzles and got veterinary passports! Old: no wonder, we flew into space before them.

Second dose of moderna was not a big deal. Sore arm and fatigue for a day. In 24 hours I was back to full speed. One of the guys that works with me, younger and healthier had a hard 24 hours then bounced right back. Another guy had raging fevers for a day then Normal. Another guy younger and better shape than me had mild flu symptoms for a day then he was back to normal. Now the hard part is getting my well aged parents vaccinated. . .

My wife and I are scheduled to get ours tomorrow morning. These things are not 100% effective so you can still get Covid after vaccination. Also, the protection provided by the vaccine isn't as long lasting as the protection from having had Covid.

Some of you are very lucky. Here in extreme southeastern NC the wait is ridiculously long. I'll be 78 this month, but the earliest can get the shot is mid-April--nearly 2 months away. And I just heard that there's not enough vaccine here, so I may have to wait longer.

Same here is Central Washington. It's directed by the governor who has shown himself to be totally incompetent- appears he models his actions after the California governor. An acquaintance of ours, aged 79 was denied a vaccination because she isn't old enough. Her husband, age 84 finally made it to the eligible list. Meanwhile, the gov's buds all get their immunizations.

You can still be infected even with the vaccine and with that you are then a carrier.

Wife and I got first shots last Monday thanks to our daughter working hard to get us on the list. She and her husband, who are both teachers, were also vaccinated then. I had what felt like a sinus headache for a couple of days, now no problem.

 

[Kevin Peacocke]

If it were offered I would take the vaccination in a heartbeat. You all talk of side effects - one of the worrying side effects of covid is death, and not a pleasant one at that. Unfortunately we are not likely to be vaccinated here in Zim for many, many months, maybe even next year. Oh well lots of reading.

 

[tedthorn]

I get shot #2 next week

 

[IvW]

I will not take the vaccine.

We use Ivermectin...my son, 16, and the rest of us have used it preventitive for the last 5 weeks. He has been training 6 days a week during this period, full contact, Greco Roman wrestler. Tomorrow he will be wrestling National Trials for the National team to take part in the African Championships in Morocco. He will be wrestling in the 110kg division as a Cadette(under 17) and decided he has not wrestled competitively for so long due to this crap he will also compete in the Junior divison(18-20) 97kg.

Life must go on.....
