Are you willing to get the Covid vaccine when offered? (6 Viewers)

Got my booster yesterday. Arm a little sore overnight if I was laying on that side, but otherwise no issues.

Same. Went Pfizer for shots 1 and 2. Decided on Moderna for booster. No side effects that I am aware of, other than slight soreness which went away in a day or so.

Maybe, I've followed both threads closely since the beginning and I don't recall anyone calling themselves or vaxxed people heroes. When you brought it up, that's the first I've heard of it.

Same here…this is really dumb…

I think a lot of people are confusing religious exemption with moral/personal objections.

Are those with religious reasons less likely to get and spread COVID than those with moral/personal objections? Because if not…what are we really doing here with these exemptions?

No, but usually only religious reasons can get exemptions. Personal usually don't, unless something is optional.

The company that they say is doing this has been outraging folks by testing a limited few humans for a long time now. They actually make those chips for dogs, cats, and livestock. I think they do the human testing because some pet owners are easier to convince it's safe if they can show they've been tested in humans.

Put a chip in a calf and the calf doesn't have to be branded. Branding isn't good for them. They sure as heck don't like being branded. Branding also attracts predators because there is some bleeding and festering if the branded area gets infected. That creates a smell that attracts hungry creatures to come from the night.

I lived at a place where if animal control got a hold of a dog or cat part of getting them out was paying for a chip to be installed so they could ID them the next time they caught them, and therefore could be sure of being able to increase the fine for repeat offender owners of that pet.

If a person were to put one in for a vaccine passport there wouldn't be any authorities who would be checking for vaccination who have the chip readers to make use of them.

So I think mostly this is an outrage generating article of a kind that The Sun loves to publish.

A vaccine from the Pentagon... let's go

With all the covid outbreaks (Saints, included), do they know which strand it is?
Do they actually test for strand (in most cases) or just assume which one?

At this point, we're probably strongly assuming that everything is Omicron. I'm sure they're testing a certain percentage of samples, but with the recent news that Omicron was up to about 75% of all samples, we can safely assume that most outbreaks now are attributed to that little bugger.

I had the virus around Thanksgiving. I had assumed that it was delta.
What do you think the odds that the hospital would have tested or know which I had?

Unlikely. Did you lose your sense of taste?

Unlikely. Did you lose your sense of taste?

Just for a few days; everything seemed extremely salty (and I typically salt everything). But, my sense of smell and taste seem back to normal, now.
