It's good to hear that many of you are getting the vaccine. Best of luck to your son and grandchild @sourland. My DD got her second Moderna shot yesterday (she has two co-morbidities that qualified her for the shot) as anticipated she did have similar side effects as I did, it just hit her a bit sooner. I really didn't expect side effects when I got the shots so I was surprised. I think being aware of what might happen helps prepare you for it and may lessen the effects. We still wear masks in public but do feel more comfortable when out shopping. In spite of the side effects, it's better than getting Covid-19. The severe cases are so random that you just don't know how you will react or even survive. As for any "anti-vaxers" out there: I will use the example of a former coworker who didn't believe in the flu vaccine. Every year he would get the flu and come to work sick and spread it around the office. Although most of my other co-workers got their annual flu shots, many of us still got sick. Just not as sick as the "source." Vaccines don't guarantee that you absolutely won't get sick, but it will most likely lessen the severity of the illness (aka preventing death). So it sounds like a good idea to get the vaccine. By the way, our office got a whole lot healthier when "germ factory boy" moved on to another office. That was the year his flu developed into pneumonia. Just saying!
