I am getting it on Saturday and i believe it will be the Moderna.  My mom already had her 2 shots of Moderna and my dad had his first shot of Pfizer, will be getting the 2nd dose end of month.

In my state, they just opened the vaccine to the 50 year old age group today. I am still one month shy of that milestone birthday. So I am in a wait and see pattern. I expect Ohio to possibly open it up to the 40 or 45 age group before I am officially part of the 50 group, but either way I plan to be "on the waitlist" by mid April - if not before.

Honestly I have not heard that, but truthfully I know of 3 people who died from COVID.  And, please, no comments I am 100% positive it was COVID not the flu or anything else.

Nancy,but U know some wise azz here will say people die from the flu too and Covid only has a 2% mortality rate.

I knew 5 people very well that passed away from it.

How did U feel after your shots?I still havent gotten it yet and my spouse is going soon.

 :cat: Nope no nada - I don't get vaccines and sure would not get one of these -  I don't leave my house and I don't see the merit in taking a risk with one of these vaccines.  Some of them contain aborted fetus cells which would go against my spiritual beliefs and I just don't trust anything developed so quickly

If you check out conservative media instead of the lying left media, you will see that there have been significant numbers of people with severe reactions and deaths as well. One of my good friends had a severe reaction to the second shot.

It is an experimental drug that tampers with your DNA, for God sake. If you're a healthy person, you should avoid it like the plague. Pun intended.

But then again, if it makes you feel better and you feel strongly that way, then go ahead. Let us know how it turns out for you.  :peace:

I don’t want to start a war, but are you aware Trump and his wife received the shot in January?  Yes I’m sure people have died from the shot, but there are thousands dying from the virus.  I have always said you must do what you think is best for you.  If you get the shot fine, if you don’t that’s fine too.  I’m not going to say anything negative either way, nor will I ever say anything about masks.  You must do what you think is best for you.

Nope not in a hurry to get it. I'm not the type to rush out and be the first to try any new thing, be it vaccines or new technology, I'd rather sit back and see how it goes for others for a while.

I am most of the adults in my family have already received both shots.  We have nurses, police and firemen.  No one had much of any reaction.  It has brought a lot of peace of mind to know we have had it and have some protection.   If you work in a hospital you would certainly have a change of mind about getting the shot.  It is not a hoax, it is a horrible way to die and also having to be without your family.

Ohio opened vaccines up to 40+ year olds on March 19. It took me a few days in the system to find a location that had product and appointments available, but I eventually found a CVS pharmacy about 30 minutes away that had both. None of the sites in my immediate area had anything available online and only one or two would put me onto a waiting list.


Got my first shot this past Friday and am scheduled for my second one in mid-April - so I am ahead of schedule based on my earlier post. I had no ill effects at all other than a sore shoulder for about 48 hours.


After I get my second dose of the COVID vaccine I'm going to take a few weeks to let that run its course and then start thinking about getting a shingles vaccine sometime this spring or early summer.

Very well put Nancy.

I know some JWs that have been vaccinated and so far so good.Some people can get a reaction to eating a piece of fish.I guess it depends on the make-up of us.

Some speak out against the vaccine and would take a blood transfusion and still call themselves a Xtian even tho God condones it like homosexuality and abortions.

Im on the fence with the vaccine from a personal perspective but dont condone it either unless I know God forbids it like blood or being gay......and havent seen that yet.

Dont waste your time tring to get Trump supporters to speak out against him.If what has gone down this past yr hasnt convinced them be thankful you dont have that state of mind.

Quick update BTW.......I heard Biden was constipated.

I got the first dose today (Moderna). It's been over 8 hours, and I'm fine so far. I am a bit achy in the shoulder and neck on the side I got the shot, but my arm is not sore. I did have a dull headache today, but I don't think it's vaccine related. I get a lot of tension headaches normally. But I've heard the second shot is more likely to give you side effects.
Title: Re: Did you/are you getting the COVID shot?
Post by: santa7 on March 30, 2021, 05:40:18 am
Still waiting to see if there's very many side effects.  I always get terrible side affects from the regular flu shot, so I'm going to hold off since this is experimental.  I usually get very sick for three days from regular flu shot and some years don't get regular flu shot for this reason.  Besides, I'm going to be 71 soon.

Some of us Trump supporters will speak out against him (and have done so) when we feel he deserves it, but also defend him when he is treated unfairly (which is 98% of the time when covered in the media). Because it is such a high percentage - is just seems like we are always defending him and never speaking out against him.


Also - not my intention to start a new battle, but if it came to a point where I needed a blood transfusion to save my life, I would gladly accept it without any fear that I was committing a sin in the process. I have personally donated 3 gallons of my blood over the past several years and hope to eventually get that up to about 50 gallons or more - God willing.


I fully understand that you choose not to for religious beliefs, which you are entitled to.

You might be the only one here on FC that have spoken out on Trump.There are more posts waiting for Biden to stumble.From Trump supporters i am speaking of.

There are other blood alternatives to use and the bible clearly condemns how God feels re blood.I also understand many could care less about that and still say they support bible.

Ill gladly put them up for anyone interested in seeing them but not expecting it,so i guess for now U just have to take my word.

The Pharissees were entitled to their religeous beliefs too.Go read on how Jesus  viewed them.Thats why Jesus said if you wanna follow me in this Satanic world be prepared also to pick up your torture stake.

You ended your post saying,"God willing"

I also remind you what Psalms 83:18 KJV says RE who is the TRUE God.
2 Corinthians 4:4, KJV: "In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."This scripture refers to Satan also being a god.

I finally decided to get the shot, only because we love to travel and dont want to worry about having to get tested and some states are requiring quarantining. I felt fine after the first one (maybe a little tired) and my husband was sympton free after the first and second one. I hope I am lucky and dont have any symptoms either after my second one in a couple weeks.

The last time I received the flu shot I got sick. Tired, just unwell. I never felt this way in the other flu shots I have received prior. Very strange. So with the covid vaccine, I'm not sure about that. I have severe allergies, I'm allergic to everything.

I just got my 2nd dose last week on the 26th of this month! I was really scared but after my doctor told he lost a lot of patients bc most didn’t get the vaccine or out right refuse get take it! My poor big bro who’s a doctor in the Philippines took the first dose but it wasn’t strong enough, he didn’t develop enough antibodies from the vaccine to prevent the onset of Covid. 5 days after taking it he ended up in hospital with respiratory problems! Happily, he has recovered now but he still has to in lockdown a bit longer for precautions. If you haven’t yet, please take the vaccine because it’s the 2nd line of defense against Covid!

unfortunately because we love to travel, I gave in and got the vaccine, thinking it would be easy for flying, etc. I went through literal hell for 2 straight days and a week later, still dont feel good. Good luck if you get it and have side effects. It was HORRIBLE  :( Oh, and mine was the phizer.

I would  never be around anyone who hasn't gotten their vaccines.  People are still sitting back stating they are going to wait.  How asinine.  But perhaps they like not being able to be around family and friend.

Post by: ssarber on May 05, 2021, 05:57:49 pm
I think it should be everyones choice. The vaccines dont prevent covid, just maybe lesson symptoms. The vaccine has not been tested long enough to be considered safe. The idiot government still thinks you should wear a mask even WITH the vaccine, yet shoves it on everyone. This shaming of folks for saying no, needs to stop. It isnt anyones business (least of all the governement) who has or has not had a vaccine. This is out of control on the government thinking it can push any citizen to do anything, including wearing masks, not gathering, or vaccines. Come on folks, it has a high recovery rate and yet we are being scared into all this nonsense. Do what is best for YOU!! And leave others to decide for themselves. If you really believe the government is going to be done with this, even if everyone got a vaccine; then you are very uninformed. IF you feel better getting vaccinated or wearing a mask, then do so. I respect your decisions. Respect mine decisions and my privacy.

I just got my 2nd dose last week on the 26th of this month! I was really scared but after my doctor told he lost a lot of patients bc most didn’t get the vaccine or out right refuse get take it! My poor big bro who’s a doctor in the Philippines took the first dose but it wasn’t strong enough, he didn’t develop enough antibodies from the vaccine to prevent the onset of Covid. 5 days after taking it he ended up in hospital with respiratory problems! Happily, he has recovered now but he still has to in lockdown a bit longer for precautions. If you haven’t yet, please take the vaccine because it’s the 2nd line of defense against Covid!

Your doctor is an idiot and spreading false information. There have been multiple reports where people got the vax and still got the virus and even got the virus and died. You even admit in YOUR post that your brother took the vax and then still got covid but try to justify it.  If you want to take it then take it. But stop trying to shove it on others. If the vax works then you took it so you are protected. Don't worry about the ones who don't take it.

unfortunately because we love to travel, I gave in and got the vaccine, thinking it would be easy for flying, etc. I went through literal hell for 2 straight days and a week later, still dont feel good. Good luck if you get it and have side effects. It was HORRIBLE  :( Oh, and mine was the phizer.

I know a guy who took it 2-3 weeks ago and he still doesn't feel right.

I think it should be everyones choice. The vaccines dont prevent covid, just maybe lesson symptoms. The vaccine has not been tested long enough to be considered safe. The idiot government still thinks you should wear a mask even WITH the vaccine, yet shoves it on everyone. This shaming of folks for saying no, needs to stop. It isnt anyones business (least of all the governement) who has or has not had a vaccine. This is out of control on the government thinking it can push any citizen to do anything, including wearing masks, not gathering, or vaccines. Come on folks, it has a high recovery rate and yet we are being scared into all this nonsense. Do what is best for YOU!! And leave others to decide for themselves. If you really believe the government is going to be done with this, even if everyone got a vaccine; then you are very uninformed. IF you feel better getting vaccinated or wearing a mask, then do so. I respect your decisions. Respect mine decisions and my privacy.

So give it back to them. Shame them for wearing a face diaper.  And it IS your choice. No one is being forced to do anything. Covid is just a new strain of the flu and it has already mutated just like viruses and the flu virus does every year. The flu and covid are both strains of "coronavirus".  People are just stupid any more.

Not so long ago, I received the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. I was successfully immunized with CoviShield, manufactured by AstraZeneca/Oxford. But, as studies have shown, there is no reason to worry. This vaccine is "in service" in many progressive countries of the world. In the morning, there was a feeling of slight exhaustion, as after a cold. But, in principle, nothing fatal, the usual reaction to the vaccination. By the evening, it completely let go. I hid the pills, I didn't need it anymore. But I remember how I was afraid of getting sick at the very beginning of the pandemic. I ordered an antigen swab test (https://www.confirmbiosciences.com/covid19-sars-antigen-rapid-swab-test/) to protect my 80-year-old grandmother since she lives with me. I did these tests every time I came home, and with a vaccination, you can not be afraid of this.

I was waiting until the fall to see what happens but with this Delta variant wreaking havoc I got my first shot last week.  I just had soreness at the injection site for a day.  I head that the second shot might have more after effects.  I got Pfizer.  I still wear a mask and will continue even when I am fully vaccinated.  I will still avoid crows and social distance.

Exactly. A 33 year old woman got both her shots. She did everything that was asked of her for protection from this virus but STILL got covid and died recently. The media don't tell you everything so make a decision for yourself.

The JWs have supported the vaccines now.

If there were blood products in them they wouldnt have.

Vaccines are based on personal decisions by them.

I got both of my shots even though I was scared! When my Doctor told me of so many of his patients dying from Covid or the addition to the complications of current illnesses due to Covid, I sucked it up & took the plunge! I was very fearful because every year, if I take the flu shot, I always get the flu. Amazingly, knock on wood, I didn't even get any side effect from the Vaccine! So, advice to those still standing bye, if you won't do it for yourself do it to help protect your family & your fellow human. Even though, I got the shots, I still wear my mask in public because I'm not big headed & pig headed to think that just because I've the vaccine, I'm immune to the covid19 virus! You're still succestable to catching other virus's & bacterium swirling around you every breath you breath in  & out every single day. If you have to stop to think how many germs & foreign invaders your body has to fight off......your head would explode off your shoulders while screaming till you lose your voice!

The vaccine does not contain aborted fetus cells. That was a conspiracy theory that was spouted a while back. You can't believe anything any more.

smh People like you are part of the problem. You are not going to convince anyone to take this vaccine by calling them names and insulting them.  And this crap about take it to protect others is beyond foolish!  If you want to be protected then take the vax to protect you.  You or me or anybody else taking the vax does not protect others.  In fact you would put others in danger.  It has been proven that vac people are more likely to show no symptoms and be spreading the virus and not know they are doing so.  SO there is that.

The mask is basically worthless as well. The virus is 1000 times smaller than the pores in the mask. So the virus will pass right through. IF the mask worked then NO ONE who wears a mask would ever get sick.  But the ignorant maskers want to blame the unmasked.  And are too stupid to see that the face diaper is not working. 

You are correct in one thing.  After being fully vaxed you can still get cov.  But according to the numbers we are being given the majority of the people in the hospitals, on vents, and dying are people who are not vaccinated.  I have talked to real people I know who are saying this.

The best thing you can do is stay away from people.  But unless you are lucky enough to work from home then most likely you will be around other people.

I don't blame you. I think there are many folks that have had bad reactions or died. It is a very hard decision to make. Folks also have died of Covid. It seems like a vaccine can be the better route for most folks, but it also seems like it doesn't always work. It definitely should be a personal decision without anyone trying to force it on people.

I agree. If you have a strong immune system with no health issues you're good to go. If you do catch it ,it will be mild symptons, nothing life threatening. I haven't gotten a vaccine as of yet don't know it I will.

Hi. Sometimes intimate health problems arise. For many, it is not easy to go to the pharmacy and ask the seller for the medicine they need, especially if there are other customers as well. Virtual stores respect privacy and you can order the necessary drug without hesitation. Try learn more about EU Meds (https://eumeds.com). I think many people will find it useful.
