COVID shot ?
Just wondering if anybody has got the vaccine yet? I m over 65 so i got my first round of the Moderna bout 10 days ago. No issues so far, second shot in a couple of weeks. Probably more covid in our community now than ever before. Local transmission rate was around 5 percent, but since thanksgiving and christmas, has jumped to around 20 percent.
I know there is a lot of controversy over the effectiveness and safety of it, but i have some health issues that make it kinda scary for me. Also know a lot of ya ll are up north, just checking with everyone

I used to get the flu shot every year, got the flu about every other year. Stopped getting the flu shot 11 years ago, haven't had the flu since. I used to ask my family Dr. if they got the flu shot personally, they would look around to see who was listening and say no, I asked them if their family got the shot same answer. I know there are reports of up to 60% of health care workers refusing the shot unless its required to keep their job

Hey Phat, I'm the captain in our fire dept, so I got the shot Jan 6. Haven't had any side effects. Got to get my second shot in Feb. My wife and I both had covid about two months ago. We were down sick for about a week, kinda like a short case of the flu. We were lucky. Hope you're all doing well!

57 years of age. Had the corona. Not getting the shot. Retiring in about 3 years. I***8217;ll be socially distant from most, as I don***8217;t really care for people. You guys in south Florida... wanna drown some shrimp? I***8217;ll be available for that.
I should have a little skiff behind the truck at that point, so name the time and place.

It seems when I type an apostrophe, it appears as ***8217;. Maybe that’s just how it shows on my end. I don’t know. Odd.

Update. My engineer went into the hospital on January 20th with the corona. He was gone 3 weeks later. We had worked together for 10-12 years and were planning to spend time together in retirement. His place is in boca and mine in Delray.
This is still so surreal to me as we couldn’t see him in the hospital and we couldn’t attend his funeral. It hasn’t changed anything for me regarding the vaccine, but this was my first experience losing somebody close to me. Sucks!!!!
