I didn't feel my jab at all. Multiple people have reported the same.

Yeah same. I'm going to tell them beforehand that I tend to get queasy around hospitals, so they don't think I'm having an allergic reaction.

I don't mind getting shots, but the sight of blood makes me nauseous/feel faint.  When I got my first covid shot, I was fortunately looking away because the nurse nicked a blood vessel and blood spurted out. :x

I'm ok, with blood. I used to donate blood regularly. My complexion always threw nurses off, though. "Do you feel all right?" - "Yeah, I'm always this pale." <_<

The only time that my knees felt week was when my son was 3 had blood drawn and he was sitting on my lap.

I'm not squeezy. It's just blood or shit or whatever. It'll wash off.

I get weak in the knees just entering a hospital. That smell, I can't stand it.

There's almost no time to look away. That's how quick it was.

So obviously the government is now backtracking on their ditching AZ/J&J move because Moderna can't deliver and Curevac approval is delayed. I don't know where that leaves the voluntary sign up or my chances of getting a vaccine before August.

It has been announce that my age group will start getting vaccinated next week. It has made me slightly anxious.  :ph34r:

The needle they used on me was so tiny I didn't feel it at all. Compared to getting my flu shot it was nothing.

So maybe you have nothing to worry about.

If I see my own blood what still left of it in my body quickly flees out of my brain. But when it comes to injections or taking of blood samples I just look away and focus on not focusing on what's happening. Like that, jabs like this are easy.

I'm fairly relaxed - get blood tests every month or so. So I've become pretty used to needles and blood etc.

How so? Vaccine uncertainty or "I best not get covid before"?

I don't like needles...  :ph34r:

Having my second this afternoon. I dislike needles as well but the first was really the least intrusive needle in my arm I've ever felt. If  I hadn't been focussing on it I probably wouldn't have noticed it.

Yeah, I was doing that for awhile and trained myself to watch.
