I'd rather have 200 million with the J&J alone than 100 million with a Pfizer.

I suspect we'll need annuals anyway.

My arm today is not remotely sore.  I feel pretty good right now.  I was "OK" yesterday but it was the feeling you get before you get sick.

I guess that makes sense.

The Biggest Threat of this pandemic was hospitals being overrun.

Like I said, from the viewpoint of Utlilitarianism, that makes sense

For me personally, I want the good stuff.  

The J&J vaccine probably has its place, in those applications previously mentioned.  It's not a total loss.

But when the time comes, it's not the one I'm going to bother with.

If the J&J vaccine had preceded the others by months, I'd be more supportive of it, as the ONLY option in the early going.  But instead it has lagged by months.  It still has a place in the world, but it won't have a place in my arm.

Minnesota announced yesterday the plan for expansion of vaccine availability. However, this won't happen until 70% of the state's O65s get their shots. Estimates for that are the end of March, but could vary depending on increases in vaccine supply.

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

At the moment, they are for 16 and older.  Companies are  running trials on under 16 and pregnant women now.

The original trials excluded these folks so the emergency use does not include them, though pregnant women can get the shot by signing a waiver, but not many over 65 get pregnant.

I got shot one Thursday, shot two is March 18.  The wife got both already.

I got another invitation from the county this time for shot one, so this is gathering steam here.

If thats the case then we will be fully vaccinated under current rules at about 250,000,000

My i s c &a aggie wife got shot #2 today.  She had no reaction to shot#1, so if there's going to be one, this will probably be it.  Hopefully not, of course.

I got an email from the county offering an appointment yesterday, so this appears to be freeing up.

They were processing people very efficiently at the hospital I went to, doing at least 5 a minute, it might have taken two minutes per shot and they had 10+ booths.

My shooter was a rather attractive RN.

Yeah my buddy who is a first respnder and got his shots over a month ago, said that the volunteer staff and shooters were all either attractive nursing students, or attractive RNs.  

My wife never commented on her experience, and I did not ask...

I just checked the card they gave me on my first shot on Jan 29 - no 2nd shot date on it.  So I guess I'm still just waiting on an email.

HA!
I looked up the website I originally signed up on and today is the last day of my 2nd-shot window.  Made an appt for 1:12.
It's way over in Chandler.....doubt they'll provide any gas money. 
.
Oh there goes OAM, looking for a hand-out!

Is there a phone# or email address to follow up?  They should have scheduled you by now, I think.

After my shot, I had to sit 15 minutes, and another attractive lady gave me the information to register for Shot #2,  March 18, which I did.  They will fill out my card at that time, the reverse side.

Maybe these ladies had moustaches and bad teeth though.

I feel a bit hungover this morning.  I kind of celebrated last night though.

I'm planning a trip to Utah in May.
