Everyone on this planet who associates with others in any real way is going to be exposed to this at some point. It will never leave us. It will be the 5th endemic coronavirus (and 7th known overall). Those who survive will have some immunity, as will those who received the vaccination. Then, as it comes around every year little kids will be exposed and get a cold, while the rest of us who have immune system memory of this will re-develop the antibody and knock it out. Some will get more sick when it does come around, much like a cold. What is scary is the first time your body is exposed to it, and how you will respond. I for one, am glad I made it to the vaccination - I don't want to develop it the other way. [Reply]

Congrats - I won't offer a handshake, though. I'm still dodging the virus and I'm done with handshakes anyway. [Reply]
I am going to get my first shot of the Moderna on the 20th of this month. Since I work at a college they moved higher education up to Phase 1A from 1B. [Reply]
My arm hurts. More than it typically does with a flu shot, but not bad enough that I feel the need to take acetaminophen or ibuprofen. I also have some minor skin irritation where they put my bandaid on.

That's it.
You must be weak. I'm not sore and my only irritation is my wife. LOL [Reply]
