Work sent out a list of places in the county accepting healthcare workers for the vaccine but they’re booked pretty far back so hopefully soon but who knows

Yes, I will. There will be no normal life or anything close to it for years unless enough people get vaccinated. So it's either vaccine, endless lockdowns or a free reign for the virus and so many dead bodies that it resembles the great plague.
@BlueRain I think part of the reason it take years is because there is no real push. Yes I understand they needed to be testing and testing over long periods of time,, but we don't have time in this situation. Thanks for answering

I'll be getting mine as soon as it's available in March. Given how many cases you guys have over there, i'd be getting it as soon as i could as the downside of covid including surviving it and ending up with long-covid far outweigh any proven issues with the vaccine.
@iamnikki It won't make things perfect but it'll be way better. So the vaccine has a 90% effectiveness rate, so it means that according to current stats there will still be 10% of people who get vaccinated who could still get covid. Interestingly the flu vaccine is actually less effective at around 72%. So it's possible to get the covid vaccine and still get covid, but your odds are reduced to 1 in 10, which is much better.
No, I get sick with paraflu all winter long whenever I take a flu vaccine, last one was about 25 years ago and I’ve never had paraflu since. I don’t trust the vaccines.
@Tastyfrzz no I am not. The vaccine affects my immune system that way. I told my doctor when it happened the third time, and he said “Oh yeah it does me the same way. I can’t take it either”. But damn they never ever warn you about para flu. It also affects my sisters the same way.
I am a public school teacher and am supposed to be eligible soon. That said, I don’t feel right that others that I personally regard as being more urgent should get it after me. I am 26 and in good health.
