my boss told me this morning that a woman he knows had a reaction from the vaccine.  Was significant, but nothing worse than being sick from the virus.

swelling and a rash

My wife just had a sore arm. Her office MA had some itching and rash at the injection site in addition to the sore arm, though, so it was a little more of a reaction.

Something around 10 million Americans have been vaccinated.  How long does one wait for seeing side effects?

We had tens of thousands in the trials that ended 3-4 months back.

I don't know how long "one waits" for seeing side effects.

Speaking for myself only, I already said, I'll be waiting for several months after the second dose has gone into millions of arms.  

Tens of thousands is a tiny sample compared to tens of millions.  But I don't have to tell you that, you're a scientist.

well, Utee couldn't get a shot this week if he begged, so easy for him to wait a few more months

I'm guessing if utee was 90 years old, he would have been standing in line.

@utee, have your parents and your in-laws lined up yet?

My brother's FIL got his first shot in Dallas, 2nd shot is scheduled for early Feb.  Before I visit the week of the 22nd.

My i s c & a aggie wife has already done the first dose. No side effects, not even really any soreness at the injection site. Her second shot is somewhat in question, the state and local distribution has been altered over the past couple of weeks.

My inlaws already had COVID back in July.  They're not overly worried about a vaccine.

My own parents have signed up and are on a waiting list of some kind.

if you listen to and believe Virologist Dr. John Dye, there's good reason to take the vaccine even if you've had COVID

The number of people hospitalized with the coronavirus in Iowa has dipped below 500 for the first time since October.

The Iowa Department of Public Health said 474 people were being treated for COVID-19 in hospitals Saturday, down from 505 on Friday. The last time the number of people hospitalized was below 500 was on Oct. 18. The state reported 730 new cases and two deaths Sunday to give Iowa a total of 304,852 cases and 4,323 deaths since the pandemic began.

Millions of people likely flew on a 737max before, well, you know. 

As I said, having already had covid, I’m in no hurry. I’ll probably take the vaccine next year which is probably when it will be widely available anyway.

Only the aforementioned West Virginia and North Dakota have done better as a percent of population.

Gotta dig for the data and not read the "news" pages. One would think Florida is a shit show otherwise. 

It isn't, by any reasonable measure, in this whole thing.

quite a few states around 4%

not terrible in my opinion, just getting started

as with most things, it will get much better as bugs get worked out

I'm sure of that. I like the exponential trends.
