COVID vaccinations! Have you gotten yours?

[mongers]

Monday I had my age group originated offer of vaccination letter, it's taken me till today to get a useful appointment, Saturday after next in the next small town 5 miles away.

Going through the NHS website or national phone-line, I was only being offered places at the large centres in the Bournemouth-Poole conurbation, which is much further away and I'd have to use public transport, something I'm trying to avoid because of vulnerable family members.

Initial vaccinations are going faster than anticipated.  The next group gets to start booking today, instead of waiting for Monday.  All good signs

Dang, you go Finland.

Heh, yeah. Must be too cold for the Covid.    That reminds me of the state of Maine which had very low rates early on. Not sure how they've fared over all now in the longer term.

Montreal county is now at large 65+.

I might have to reconsider my september timeline.

Just got my first shot. Scheduled in April for the second one. I feel fine, so far no after affects.

But for first shots only.

If they stick to a 4 month delay you might be looking at more like October before getting your second.

Right, I'm always talking the 1st shot. 2nd doesn't really matter, imo.

Also, I expect for us young people () that we'll get the J&J vaccine.

Yeah, the protection comes with the first.  The second is not as relevant so long as it is taken in time to provide lasting protection.

I scheduled my vaccination, the first dose is this Saturday.  I was so excited to find an open slot in Vineland, NJ that I didn't check where it was.  Turns out it's 125 miles away from where I am.  Oh, well, it's been a while since I took a road trip.

My first dose is also this Saturday, 7 miles by bike up the road from here; fancy a virtual race?

And how the fuck did you jump the line?

I didn't jump the line.  In New Jersey, starting March 15, merely overweight are eligible for a vaccine.  I weigh in at 26 BMI, so I (barely) qualify.
