I'm booked in for a Moderna shot on the 25th--my first one. Miss Linda, being better than a decade younger has to wait a bit longer, but should get hers in a couple of weeks. God only knows when we'll see our 2nd shots.

Congrats Gary!!
Around here the second Moderna shot is 28 days after the first shot, which Makes Mine & Mrs Bear's 2nd shots on March 29th.

I think once you get the first, the 2nd dose is pretty firmly scheduled for the appropriate interval and you’ll get your appointment that day. At least that’s been the case for all I know here.

Got my appointment for the 20th of March at a VA Clinic in Jersey. It is the moderna one, a two shot. But I just hope with all the new places giving them they can distribute these shots better, you hear on the news where places had to throw away hundreds of then due to mishandling them. Hope everyone can get theirs soon, so life can be normal once again. I know I have been in hibernation since it started. So I guess after I get them and wait the allotted time to be effective it will be Hello World
I hope it is not E Orange

Getting our second vaccination on St. Patty's day - tomorrow. Another 2 hour drive there and 2 hours back. For whatever reason the vac was available way out in the small towns before it was available in the larger towns and cities here in central Missouri.

First vac gave us both a sore-ish arm. Like a bruise that only hurts if you poke it. It was Pfizer-Biontech

Tomorrow is my appointment for shot #2 of Pfizer, but the Health Department has been closed for two days because of the snow, so appointments are backed up. Walgreens has walk-in appointments, and they have Pfizer, so that will match up on my CDC report card. I'm waiting on a combination of snow melting and avoiding people that don't have a 4X4 being stuck. Best bet is we will get shot shot #2 on Saturday at the latest.

It's the whole state . Even after Parsons hired a consulting firm to over see roll out . They have told him twice that he's sending to many doses to small towns . Happy you'll be all done .

Just got home from getting the second Pfizer shot, all done, piece of cake! RAY


That's Great Ray!! Glad you're all fixed up!!
We got 12 days to wait yet, but we're scheduled.

I'm glad to hear all you other guys are "getting it done", As Larry would say!

Got a text message from the Nashville VA yesterday informing me they are now giving vaccines to enrolled veterans and caregivers of any age now on a walk in first come first served basis. Pretty cool as my wife is my certified caregiver. We thought it would be months before we could get one. Gonna go in the next few days. We are supposed to get severe weather and tornadoes today and tomorrow so not standing in a line outside lol
 
Got the second Pfizer shot Friday. No side effects other than a little soreness at the injection site. Wife was very tired after the first one. I'm always tired so I couldn't really tell.

Here ya go Bear. I got mine at Ft. Leonard Wood.View attachment 487545

Yes sir . 30 years on a commercial construction site . Breathing concrete dust , fiberglass insulation and fire rated drywall dust . I have a hard time breathing on a good day .
I'm at the end of the list though . I can wait .
Same here, my lungs are shot from 35 yrs of drilling and shooting in overhead concrete anchors along with breathing in Asbestos, Monocoat dust, Formaldehyde treated insulation, Acid flux, CPVC glues and Concrete sawing and Jackhammering dust. But I'm still not getting the shots, I've had horrible reactions to the flu shots and other vaccines that hospitalized me for a week to 10 days. And I've had C-19 once for sure possibly twice/ didn't get tested the second time I isolated 17 days both times. And to be honest with you, I trust my family that are Drs and RN's that specialize in the pulmonary field in trauma care and pulmonary after care they treat C-19 6-7 days a week. I trust them 100,000X more than I trust Uncle Sammy and his bought and paid for fast tracked vaccines.

My wife is in the medical field/ RN she is getting the Pfizer shot most likely she is still researching a few things. I won't get it because of my experiences with vaccines in the past.
In all honestly unless the strain changes to the point that the recovery is opposite of what it is now I won't take the chance of having a reaction to the shots.

If I can't fly or leave the country so be it that is why we bought the 5th wheel there is plenty to see in our country.👍
 
the Admiral and I found a pharmacy that had the J&J vaccine and friday afternoon we did a walk in and received the shot. Sunday morning and really no reactions to the vaccine. Maybe a little achy, but at 68... We usually are anyway!
