Just got home from Walmart where I got the Covid Vaccine. I was 50/50 on the fence about getting it. Decided I would go for it after loosing another friend to Covid this past week. That makes 2 friends of mine that have died from it.
I know it will not prevent catching it but maybe it will help me fight it if I do indeed catch it.

Sorry for the loss of your friends.
Did they have any other condition? Age, health, smokers?

are you selling the used vaccine? how much you askin?
Getting the vaccine doesn't stop you from getting the Rona, but it'll stop you from dying from it. Pretty simple decision, you shoulda' got it months ago. I do know one person that died 3 weeks after the second shot, so wait the 4 weeks that is recommended before thinking you are protected, or whatever is recommended for the type of vaccine you got.
and for you conspiracy theorists, if Bigfoot grabs you and throws you in a UFO where the aliens give you an anal probe and then a vaccine, well, you may have a point

Agreed that really sucks. We can empathize. This *&$^ virus is so unpredictable. Crazy how the symptoms vary and affect people so differently.

Absolutely nothing. Why would I care what medical procedures he had? Is this the forum where we announce these things?

It's obvious to most of us here that he posted in the wrong forum. The guy has 22 postings in five years, he's lost some close friends to the covid and dealing with chit in his life. So show some f cking humanity. Never ceases to amaze the heartless dregs that surface at the campfire.

Catdog1,
Good for you!
I’m a believer. I work in healthcare and have been vaccinated. I also got COVID before the vaccine was available. It wasn’t pleasant, and it was different than anything I’d been exposed to in the past. I felt horrible!….muscle and joint pain like I’ve never experienced before. Dizziness and constant headache for weeks. Having said that, I’ve come through it well. My wife also got it and was on the verge of being hospitalized but she came through it before that was necessary, thankfully!
In my opinion the positives far out weigh the negatives with these vaccines.
I have a sister who still is not vaccinated….I think she is crazy for not doing so! But, it’s not my call. I wish her luck. The numbers in my hospital mirror what others nationally are showing (the vast majority of serious cases are among those who haven’t been vaccinated.).

Thank you for getting vaccinated. Not only are you protecting yourself, you are slowing the spread of the disease and supporting the immunocompormised.

I currently have 2 friends on ventilators in AK, one 60’s, one in his 40’s. I didn’t want it either but decided to go ahead myself. So far no problems, round 2 in another week or so. I support people making their own choice, good luck to whatever you decide.

If you have a doctor that is not using the very effective therapeutics that are available I suggest you find one that will. FLCCC: www.covid19criticalcare.com

Price check: Vaccine is free. A month in ICU costs $1,000,000.

Sorry about being in the wrong tab.
Yes one of them had previous heart problems. Age 67
The other was healthy and 38 years old.
Neither one vaccinated.
All in all I'm not in favor of this particular vaccine. I don't like how it's being pushed on us or how quickly it was created. Imo, it has alot of cons and very very few pros.
But I told my wife if I end up in the hospital, I'm going to kick myself to death for not getting the vaccine and trying to keep from getting so bad.
