Have you gotten the Covid vaccine yet or are planning to?

I may be eligible for it in February in my county since I’m an educator.
TexChik · F
Not yet . I have be low to no antibodies before I will take it. Right now I am very high and the blood bank wants to drain me .
JeanAnna · F
Have gotten the first vaccine and getting the second one next Sunday.

@JeanAnna 👍🏼
JeanAnna · F
@marsbar 👍

No and I don’t intend to get it
Classified · M
I don't like the ones using a new never used before technique and a super short testing time. Not going to take those.
marsbar · F
@Classified I know. It’s unsettling.
Classified · M
@marsbar I heard there is one which uses the regular technique and may be free of other objections I'd have. So I'm hoping for that one now. But testing time is still too short
marsbar · F
@Classified Yes, I agree.
I've had both my COVID-19 vaccinations.
Over here over a quarter of the population has already been vaccinated.
@marsbar Israel
Nomoretomorrow · 46-50, M
@BridgeOvertroubledWaters Fair play Israel have played a blinder with their vaccine rollout. 👍
elyay2001 · 46-50, M
Not from Pfizer or Moderna.
elyay2001 · 46-50, M
@marsbar Not yet, but it attacks the virus differently and that appeals to me more.
marsbar · F
@elyay2001 Oh interesting
SW-User
@elyay2001 This is interesting, i'd thought the pfizer was better but i don't know much about the AstraZeneca. I'll have to look into it, thanks.
Jeffrey53 · 51-55, M
I want a real doctor and go into a real doctor office to give me the vaccine. I’m not going to these stadiums and drive up to get the vaccine from a volunteer.
CestManan · 46-50, F
@Jeffrey53 What about the drive-throughs that Walmart will likely open?
Jeffrey53 · 51-55, M
@CestManan won’t go to them either.
marsbar · F
@Jeffrey53 I get that.
Nomoretomorrow · 46-50, M
Had both shots of the Pfizer jab as a care worker. Other than a sore muscle in my upper arm each time I've had no reactions, but, as covid has swept through the dementia unit I work in 3 times, and I've seen so many of our residents die and so many of my colleagues seriously ill (some in hospital and some still suffering with long covid) I'm glad I've had it, especially as older men working in care homes have a massively raised chance of dying, think at one point we were the group with the highest death rate when rated by job and age.
marsbar · F
@Nomoretomorrow Oh wow. Glad you got it.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
No.

Waiting on the J&J one since it uses the traditional dead/weakened virus instead of rNA or DNA technology.
marsbar · F
@SumKindaMunster Oh, I see.
MeowsoliniReturns · 51-55, F
I plan to. I was scheduled to get it on the 3rd, but I am moving and don't want to do so with a sore arm.
marsbar · F
@MeowsoliniReturns I understand.
1234cardiff · 61-69, M
I will ..... but I will let the “Herd “ toilet roll people first just to see if it react
marsbar · F
AllAboutLaffs · 70-79, M
I had my first dose of Moderna on Friday ... second scheduled for 2/26
marsbar · F
@AllAboutLaffs 👍🏼

I’m not against those who want to take it. If you believe it’s safe then it’s your risk to take as it is mine for choosing not to have it. I’ve had bad experiences with other vaccines even in childhood, and there is no way I would trust any now and that’s why I choose to refuse.
marsbar · F
@SW-User That’s understandable.
SW-User
I’m not an anti vaxxer but I just don’t believe it should be mandatory.@marsbar
marsbar · F
@SW-User I get that. A lot of people feel that way.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
Not yet, but getting it when my turn comes.
marsbar · F
@MarkPaul Ok :)
Miram · 31-35, F
I am getting it on Feb, 20.
marsbar · F
@Miram 👍🏼
SW-User
@Miram
Wich one? Do you know yet..
Miram · 31-35, F
@SW-User Spoutnik V, russian
Probably due first week of April.
marsbar · F
They are currently doing the Seventy to seventy two year olds in my area.I’m 63 so it’s not far away.
Wales is somewhere we are probably going to have to prove we’ve been vaccinated to get into sporting events and concerts so I have decided I have no choice....
marsbar · F
WillaKissing · 56-60
Nope, and nope!
marsbar · F
SW-User
Im good without it.
marsbar · F
@SW-User 👍🏼
SW-User
Yes definitely unless there's significant issues that deter even the medical community from taking it. I'll weigh it up against getting covid at my age with my health issues and pick which has the least risk.
marsbar · F
@SW-User That makes sense.
Iwillwait · M
No, and no.
marsbar · F
@Iwillwait 👍🏼
SW-User
I'm pretty sure I have the antibodies to it already.
In my country of residence, there is no sight of vaccinations yet, lol. I'd prefer not to take it if I can avoid it.
marsbar · F
@SW-User Then you need not worry. 😇
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
marsbar · F
Haven't decided yet right now at my age I can't get it yet my parents are getting it tomorrow but I don't know when I'll get it
marsbar · F
SirBenedictTheSecond · 22-25, M
Are you hot educator the students secretly want?
marsbar · F
@SirBenedictTheSecond Are you a teacher too?
SirBenedictTheSecond · 22-25, M
@marsbar if you are counting interns, yes. It’ll be weird teaching the ones I just saw in the hallways
marsbar · F
@SirBenedictTheSecond Well good luck with your teaching career. :)
Danerol · 31-35, M
So I refuse to take the first vaccine but due to work I have to take the vaccine when we get it in our country.
marsbar · F
@Danerol I see, so it’s mandatory for you.
Danerol · 31-35, M
@marsbar sadly yes as I think it will be for most "essential workers"
TheCoolestCat · 31-35, M
yea i got it cuz im in an at risk category, dunno why though lol
marsbar · F
TheCoolestCat · 31-35, M
ikr, all them years of smoking weed did me some good in the end lol
marsbar · F
@TheCoolestCat Oh gosh 😂
Mikedewars · 70-79, M
I'm eligible but we don't have supply
marsbar · F
@Mikedewars I see.
Mikedewars · 70-79, M
@marsbar yeah New York is coming up short on supply. So I'm staying home and keeping clean that way
marsbar · F
@Mikedewars I think really high Covid states will have shortage issues.
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
He he he come n educate me in a few things girl....
marsbar · F
@braveheart21 I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve. 😌
braveheart21 · 61-69, M

marsbar · F
CestManan · 46-50, F

marsbar · F
@SirBenedictTheSecond You’re so young.
SW-User

MrsKatherineArch · 41-45, F
If it gets life back to normal, count me in!
marsbar · F
@MrsKatherineArch Let’s hope so.
Shutterbug · 56-60, M
