This article was published in Nov. I just found it posted in a another group I'm in. It is excellent! Notice the comparison charts for dose one and dose two of both vaccines. Click to the arrows to toggle back and forth between doses.

So...I got a call this evening to schedule an echo next week--this is nothing bad, just something I asked my cardio guy to do for me. Anyway, the girl must be working remote because we ended up talking for almost an hour. She told me that when I get the email for the Covid vaccine that it will give me a choice of locations to choose from. Thought I would mention that here since it could apply to others as well.

I will report back on how that goes when it actually happens. Also will report reactions because you know I have to tell you guys every darn little detail.

I have an appointment to take my first shot of the Moderna vaccine Feb 11.

Good news: Our state is opening up the next group to get the vaccine in a couple of weeks.

Bad news: There are 11 million plus people in the next group.



This could take a while girls and boys. If you know how to be patient, patiently raise your hand.

ETA: There are 400K people in the next group. I have no idea what I was thinking there.

Has this guy got a right to respect for his completely stupid and nonsensical opinions? Maybe, just maybe, not ...

Wisconsin pharmacist who destroyed more than 500 vaccine doses believes Earth is flat, FBI says

When a pharmacist discovered 57 vials of the Moderna vaccine left to spoil outside a Wisconsin clinic’s refrigerator in December, the worker immediately suspected a colleague who had spread false and outlandish claims, according to court records.

For months, Steven Brandenburg, the overnight pharmacist at Aurora Medical Center in Grafton, Wis., had said he thought the vaccine would harm people, make them infertile, and implant them with microchips.

Now, federal authorities say belief in debunked claims went beyond the vaccine. The pharmacist, who has agreed to plead guilty to charges of attempting trying to spoil the vaccine, also believes the Earth is flat and that the sky is not real, according to court documents.

"You need to get vaccinated when it becomes available as quickly and as expeditiously as possible throughout the country," Fauci, President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser, said in a virtual news briefing with the White House Covid-19 response team. "And the reason for that is ... viruses cannot mutate if they don't replicate. And if you stop their replication by vaccinating widely and not giving the virus an open playing field to continue to respond to the pressures that you put on it, you will not get mutations."
