fujiwara79 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Mobility data has shown that people have been moving around at nearly pre-pandemic levels. People being afraid to leave their house is so April 2020. Get with the times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Well, I didn't escape without the side effects. Slept fine and felt fine this morning, then randomly got the chills- about 18 hours after the shot. Felt very lethargic, mild muscle aches, and headache. Just laid around all day until about an hour ago. Lasted about 6 hours. Not sure how typical that is, but it kinda ruined my plans for the day doing outside stuff lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Just got a Public Safety Alert on my phone that Virginia is opening up vaccinations for everyone 16+.

clueless Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I was talking on the phone with Vaccinate Virginia when the emergency alert came through! Trying to find an appointment close by is hard. I guess we will go through VAMS for my husband’s appointment. Everything is booked at the big retailers. I got my first last week st Dulles mall and was down for a day (as COVID+ to be expected). Some of the smaller pharmacies may have openings though. I will have to call. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I don't know about the supply, but I think at this point... all the high risk people have had ample time to get vaccinated. Also, I think the Administration wants to look good for their promises about getting everyone vaccinated. The J&J issue at the Baltimore plant is a big black eye though and I think that will slow things down. I would not be surprised if CDC/FDA paused the J&J vaccine partly because of the issue at the Baltimore plant and not having the vaccines needed to meet their goals.

Rvarookie Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I’m def not anti-vaccine and really appreciate the science here, but for someone that doesn’t get the flu or shot, my only angst of getting vaccine is to not disrupt my body chemistry. I’m not ruling out getting it someday, but just wanted to share some perspective on what others may be thinking. We are all not inconsiderate assholes or anti vaccine people. I wear my mask but also try to live my life and do what I “think” is best for my health. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
