I found out my county in PA is scheduling people who registered the day before I registered for vaccines now, hopefully I'm coming up soon. Unfortunately 30,000 people signed up for a vaccine the day before I did which is the biggest group by far but still, it's nice to see I wasn't passed or anything.

Had my second Pfizer yesterday at 8am, got sick about 24 hours after. I have an autoimmune disease and take immunosuppressants so I have no idea if any of this applies to anyone else, but I've currently got - arm much more sore than after the first shot, chills, exhaustion, diarrhea, severe stomach cramps. Just told all of my clients for today that I was cancelling and am gathering energy to go back to my room and take a shower. Super happy I got the vaccine and that it seems to be doing something at least.

Is this a thing a person can do in California? I found a county-level notification list and signed up for that, but is there something else I should be doing to get my spot in line?

That sounds like the same thing I did. Mine has a web portal that basically talks about what stage we're in with some vaccine info and has a google form link to sign up for one through the county. Then there's like a little spreadsheet list that shows how many people signed up on each day in January so I can loosely surmise where I am in line.

The state site is https://myturn.ca.gov/, which might give you an idea. Otherwise, it really depends on the county.

Yeah that just redirects me to the county which sucks because the county my dad is in gets like almost no doses per week so he won’t be getting his jab for god knows how long. I know that LA county is also having issues getting doses.

I'm on xeljanz and methotrexate and the only issues I had with the second shot were deep arm pain and a day of "malaise" so bad that it took a powerful act of will to get out of bed and walk across the room to get my morning coffee. Then I slept heavily that night and woke up with just arm pain.

With this Pfizer news about dose #1 granting 85% immunity, I've decided to get an antibodies test at the 14-day mark next Tues, out of curiosity (got a clinic that does them free w/ my insurance). Will obv still get shot 2 regardless, but I'll let the thread know in case anyone's curious about one humble anecdote on the single shot. My fascination w/ my own immune system supercedes my fear of getting stabbed in the finger for a test.

Our national health care agency just released an update saying that with the current flow of vaccines we will hit the herd immunity in mid-2022. I am really starting to think using my business visa to go to Russia and get a jab of the Sputnik; are there any actual non-Russian sources on how it works?

This, and because the Russians for whatever reason seem to like us. We were part of the same country some hundred years ago, and barring the wars in the 20's. Or 30's ...and next time in the 40's with Nazis. Well let's say all sorts of crazy poo poo happened but still, we are still their cousins. Probably with the same amount of insanity and alcohol, maybe a tad bit less of meth and crocodile.

It’s cause the UK gets tons of vaccines from the EU, in addition to its own products. The EU doesn’t get anything from elsewhere, and also supplies other countries. Such as the UK. So yeah, you are doing very well. Edit: if you ask why, it’s because we are dumb as poo poo. Every other Western country immediately ensured 100% of its own vaccine production would stay in its own borders. Every single one. We somehow thought... this would not happen? I dunno. So now we have basically no vaccines for ourselves, having sent the large majority of doses to other countries. Next election everyone gonna vote far right and that’s that I guess.

Seriously. So yes this is the reason. We also did the thing where for any amount of money given to a German company for vaccines that exist, an equal amount of money must go to a French company. That said French company never made a vaccine is a minor detail that doesn’t matter. So when the company with the best vaccine in the world came to us to offer just about enough doses to vaccinate most of the EU, we went and said: yeah no, we take half. Also deliver abroad first lol. We are literal idiots. There’s no excuse. That’s okay though because in autumn there’s super elections in Germany and we are gonna vote for Adolf Hitler 2.0 Edit: it’s actually not so cool just to be clear Haramstufe Rot fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Feb 19, 2021 |

Weird. Google is full of results from reputable people saying that double masking is a good idea. I don’t pretend to have any authority on the issue, just repeating what I’ve read. Got it, they’re recommending against it for KN95s, but they do recommend it for the disposable + cloth combo. They also recommend against KN95s if you have a beard, but like... is that worse than wearing another type of mask if you have a beard?

Hmm, i've been layering a cloth gaiter over my KN95 when I was going into work. I guess this does kind of smoosh the mask in closer to my nose/mouth which maybe is the issue? I wish it said why they say this.

Was on base today. Fort Gordon has signs everywhere pointing you to vaccine tents but I honestly have no idea where or how people signed up. I sure as hell haven't been told anything other than to just show up on the 31st of March at the hospital. Any vaccine is better than no vaccine but the idea that we may never go back to normal is literally something I can't deal with.
