Yeah sounds good. :)

My grandma just got hers as well. I wanted to tell my dad to talk to the GP while he was there at grandma, see if his Russian spot is still free as it was silly to decline it, but I was late by the time I called the doctor was gone.  <_<

To be fair the GP (maybe just to be polite) considered my parents' concerns valid, especially due to my mother's various conditions he recommends Pfizer or Moderna, but of course told them he can't say when they will have the chance.

Austria: 4% fully immunized, 11% have received at least 1 shot.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Feel absolutely fine today. So basically the first 12 hours I was fine - just a bit of a sore arm. And then I got 24 hours of flu and then I'm fine again.

Yesterday was horrible though - and I had that very male desire to just moan about how ill I felt :lol:

24 hours after her Moderna shot my grandma is fine apart from her arm hurting a bit, but sadly at her age one more body part in pain barely registers. :)

Quebec is now 65+


Getting there.
with large corporations entering the fray, vaccination will definnately speed up now.  Govt goal was to reach 250k/week once we had the supplies and we're very close to that.

Good news from Hungary delivered by Tamas. :blink:

:P


Just had my first shot of vaccine about 2 hours ago; very efficient process what with all of the volunteers etc.   :bowler:

I just got my first jab, still waiting for my 15 minutes to be up.  The pinch felt so inconsequential that I'm now hoping for just a little side effects, or I'm going to wonder whether I actually got any vaccine where it needs to be.

Damn. You guys are going fast. I don't expect a shot before June, and I'm in the at-risk category. We're still vaccinating 80 year olds (though admittedly we have a lot of them).

Good news on your jab. I guess I am now looking at something like late May/early June at best.

We're definitely faster than most places not named Israel, but at the same time in New Jersey priorities are probably expanded too quickly.  It is very hard to book a vaccination appointment, and I think I got very lucky by stumbling upon them in a pharmacy two hours away at just the right time.  If it's very hard to book an appointment, then the government is probably not strict enough on priorities (not that anyone is actually checking, it's really up to your conscience whether you belong to eligible groups or not).

Massachusetts is starting that soon also, not sure when. I saw that Vermont is also soon to start vaccinating all age groups.

Same in New York - I was qualified as a school employee since I was a sports official. I was worried about how to "prove" that, since as an official we don't get a paystub, which was what I was told to bring on the website. So I got a bunch of cancelled checks from last year, my schedule from this year, a letter from our organization saying I was an official.

They didn't ask to see any of it. Just my ID to make sure I was who I said I was, and that was it.

Isn't the population of Vermont like....500 people?
