    My mom had it at the same time with me and she had no symptoms at all. She went to the gym the very next day.

    Good to know because I'm sure I'm getting Astra Zeneca on Sunday

    Had my first dose of Astrazeneca 14 days ago and just had a sore arm and was feeling very tired for like 8-10 hours but that was it.

    Thats rough. A family friend of mines is also going through “long Covid symptoms.” It’s been like over a month now at least. I’d definitely advise you to get vaccinated because the antibodies from having Covid aren’t as long lasting/sufficient to entirely protect you from getting it again. I mean you more than anyone know it’s a b---- to fight & completely overcome. Also, some preliminary evidence has shown it’s significantly worse when contracted a 2nd time.

    One of my closest friends unfortunately falls under this category. She has a 3 year daughter who calls me uncle. Kills me she won’t ever get vaccinated. I’m just glad COVID has shown to not be as pervasive among kids her age.

    Be sure to check your arm where you got the injection after a few days

    I really wasn't planning on getting it but the Dr at the park had some great deals. Got all 4 shots for the price of one and honestly I feel amazing. If they told people how good it felt then maybe more would get it. No side effects yet but getting a little tired..

    Think of all the paramedics and doctors working inhuman shifts just to treat people for a disease, they wouldn't even have in the first place, if they'd get vaccinated. Plus not everone can get a vaccine due to health issues and the more people are vaccinated, the safer they'll be. Also a lot of anti vaxxers refuse to let their children get vaccines (not only for Covid but for potential deadly child diseases) because * iT cAuSeS aUtIsM*

    People who refuse vaccination for non-medical reasons deserve to be shamed but shouldn’t be shamed because it’s counter-productive. At the end of the day, you want as many skeptical people as possible to get vaccinated & shaming them (even if they deserve it) isn’t the right approach.

    Might as well tell everyone that we had spacemonkey as a test case. Ever since he got vaccinated he desperately tries to post here it's f---ing insane..

    Well, I'm not a scientist so I'll shut up about it. I simply don't trust experimental stuff, cause that's what it is in my books. Like "Hey, ummm, we have this vaccine that could cure one thing almost 20 years ago and it seems it could also cure this new thing that we don't know too much about yet, but yeah, let's try it".

    Say what you want, I'll wait and see what happens, side effects etc. If it turns out safe, I'm taking it.

    it's been in development for 17 years and is just a small fork of the SARS vaccine they had been working on. since SARS is so close to COVID.

    I've had shots before but something about this one makes me skeptical. Don't really know what it is.
