Had mine Sunday, mild headache and Flu like symptoms for 24 hours but nothing to moan about. The clinic was well run with nearly as many helpers as patients but I was dissapointed to see that, as I swapped my place nearer the front for an elderly man who had mobility issues sitting near the back, nobody else seemed to care that he was in some difficulty and offered to do the same. Tried counselling before. It’s nothing to do with pain, if take a brick to the face over a needle any day. It’s an irrational fear... could try hypnotism, but apparently you have to believe in it for it to work, and I don’t believe in hypnotism....

So in a lab they replicate the protein that the virus is based on. They eject you with the harmless protein (not the virus) and your immune system attacks it several ways until it destroys it. Then you body remembers how to kill it. So when Covid enters your body you immune system see it and kills it instantly because it has already has a blueprint how to kill it before the virus can replicate.

WalkedUp Posted March 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Government is still doing very well with the vaccines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoBodyImportant Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 I think the vaccine is pretty much available to whoever wants it now. All the local drug stores have banners outside that say Vaccine now available at no charge, stop in and get protected today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalkedUp Posted March 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 For such a large country the US has a very good roll out. The Biden administration has done well to coordinate and educate in such a short timescale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
