health Anyone got yourselves vaccinated yet?

[Cash In 22,313]

Just got my first dose and am waiting to leave. Wanted to do it as early as July to get it out of the way, but there was too much going on.

[Envy 6,162]

I'm eligible for the booster shot and have been since the beginning but I am yet to get it. I really need to go get that over with because I am in the public a lot more nowadays and in my stupid state vaccine rates are low and people don't wear masks, so... I need all of the protection I can get.

[Splashee 28,564]

I got my second TBE shot a week ago. Oh, that is for protection against being bitten by a tick, and getting a very dangerous decease (I live in a red zone). Still need another vaccine about 5 months from now to be fully protected.

What is so special about this? Well, I was afraid to take vaccines, but the covid situation made me brave. I better stay protected from the things that can currently hurt me, than to live in fear.

[Phosphor 11,529]

Antibody test came back negative, so no covid antibodies. Pretty much decided to pass on the current crop of vaccines, especially with the availability of Regeneron Monoclonal Antibodies. Gonna continue to take Vitamin D and work on improving my health with diet and weight loss (almost at target weight)

Would consider Novavax's vaccine since its based on traditional technology but that one isn't available yet to my knowledge.

A little belated to post here, but yeah, got mine back in... April I believe.  It's great.  10/10, would recommend.

[Monsoon 1,662]

I can't for medical reasons. 

[Patty Thundersnow 4,163]

I am fully vaccinated. Have been since early July.

[Fritzy 1,691]

Yes. Vaccinated way back in like May. 

[Equus 91]

Got mine at the earliest possible moment way back in early April and eagerly await the booster as soon as they make that eligible for the general public. Also pretty much the only person (well alongside fiancée and her family, and grandparents) locally that still wears masks and keeps sanitizer on hand. People here truly think either the pandemic is over or that it isn't real to begin with. Little wonder our death rate eclipsed our birth rate over the last 12 months here.

I got my first one a couple weeks ago, had a light fever the night of. Would much rather get that than the real thing, and a big thank you to all of you who have been vaccinated, even if you only got 1 dose. :>

And a big no thank you to all of you who got the vaccine. I don't need nor will I ever get the vaccine due to my religious beliefs.

I am right there with you. While I am not religious, I am strongly against the idea of being vaccinated. 

I'll never understand why people don't want to get vaccinated. If Someone really want to tell me please DM me

[Pearly Marshmallow 399]

I got my first dose on October 2. I will be getting the second one next Thursday. 

I'm willing to take a third dose if it's needed. It still upsets me a lot to see that most people in my neighborhood don't wear masks and don't care about social distancing or protecting the people around them at all.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,487]

I actually haven't yet, due to my lack of really going anywhere and my own personal anxieties though. My dad however did get it and he has been fine. People absolutely should get it as it is the correct thing to do, I'm just someone with crippling anxiety and a mind far too active for my own good.

[Astralshy 26,663]

I think I replied earlier to this thread .. yes I have

So here is an update from my case: Over the last months I got both injections (Biontech) and I'm fully vaccinated for some time now. 

[Splashee 28,564]

I probably haven't replied here yet (don't look at top posters!)

 

I got both my shots back in the summer, and it has been very nice and easier to live after that. Less to worry about.

I was going to remain unvaccinated but my workplace now has a vaccine mandate. Guess I’m getting the shot now!

Good luck, Venny.

If you don't want to get the shot, then just file an religious exemption order. 

[Cash In 22,313]

Got my second dose yesterday. Last time I was there for almost 2 hours, but this time there was barely anyone there, so I was in and out in twenty minutes.

[Envy 6,162]

I got my third dose in late October when Moderna was approved. So now I'm tripled vaccinated. But still on edge because I'm immunocompromised.

[EpicEnergy 23,218]

I still haven't gotten vaccinated, and I have no plans to get it either. 

[Steve Piranha 29,424]

I’ll be on vacation, and an extra week of leave after this Saturday. I’ll take the opportunity to get my second J&J vax 

[Sunset Rose 254]

I just got my second dose some days ago. Thankfully so- cases in this region of the world are getting a bit out of hand at the moment.

[MaxAnim 41]

Yes. 2 doses and my dad got the booster.

Eeyup! Got my two Moderna shots, my last one in late-March. The worse symptom I ever had was just a sore arm, but I rather have the vaccine and not need it than need it and not have it. I wanna be part of helping this deadly pandemic end, so I hold no regrets doing so.

An update. I got my booster shot, too! Unlike before, I had a mild fever and chills. But feeling the effects of a vaccine demonstrates that the vaccine works, and it's way better for anyone to feel the effects of a vaccine than the effects of the disease itself. My fever and chills vanished after one day, the sore arm after a couple.

I said it before, and I'll say it again. The vaccine's safe and effective. Want this pandemic to end? Get it.

[ponytailladybug 3]

I did get vaccinated but not because I really wanted to it was because I was moving and I now have a roommate and he is an older gentleman and felt better if I got the shot. 

If it wasn't for that I may not have gotten it. 

I think it's everyone's personal choice if they want it or not and I respect you one way or the other. I'm not an antivaxxer at all I just thought this one was a little quick but that's not even the reason why I didn't want it. I didn't want it because everyone I met that's had covid has reported it's about the same or a little worse than the flue. I know that some people get much worse and even die so I don't need a lesson there at all I'm just stating how I feel about it. lol
