COVID vaccinations! Have you gotten yours?

[viper37]

Just received my booster, I got Moderna this time, after having received Pfizer for the two previous shots.

It's half the dose for 100% of the side-effects! 

Goddam, I still feel tired 5 days after this.

My booster shot of Moderna from Tuesday made my arm hurt worse than the first Pfizer shot, but also may have cleared up slightly quicker.

Couldn't actually tell if I was tired because I'd had too little sleep the two nights before the booster and a bad night's sleep the night after the booster.

Nothing serious in other words. I am one of the lucky ones, I guess.

I am blessed because I got far more trouble from my annual flu shot than I ever did from any of my COVID shots which barely registered.

Yes, the direct quote could be confusing/counter-intuitive. You need to understand the context of his entire speech to get why he's mentioning vaccines and health care whilst talking about lowering the rate of population growth.

As is, the quote is almost perfect and custom-made for the antivax crowd.

All truth is relative, and their interpretation of his words are as good as anyone elses...

Yeah, I was worried about my booster, but....well, nothing really. Just a sore arm for maybe half a day. No noticeable fever or chills or weakness.

I could get a booster now but my children will be eligible for their 2nd dose in 2 weeks so I'll wait for a combined appointment to avoid going to the vaccine center multiple times.

At the risk of sounding condescending Renard, that's  a very complex sentence for a non native speaker.

  I know he's Quebecois but I thought GF was bilingual?

[Eddie Teach]

He's clearly bilingual. He still may have been raised in a monolingual French household.

ET is right. I was introduced to English in 4th grade. I didn't really pay attention to anything english until Topanga entered my life when I was around 14.

What is Topanga?

Biontech, the company that developed the Pfizer vaccine, was alone responsible for a 0.5% growth of Germany's GDP last year. Their revenue grew from less than half a billion to 17 billion Euro in one year.
