I called in to 980 with the clown Keith baldry and I said it was kind of a lack of respect to just force people to show up and say oh, here’s you’re second Pfizer shot when you got Moderna as the first

He shot me down right away saying experts bla bla bla it’s like shut up clown

Anyways, either you get the jab or not. People should still be respected for their own decision.
Yeah this is a fallcy - you can't claim a lot of people refuse to acknowledge bad side effects when 1: you literally have no idea, because they refuse to say it and 2: that's just not true, read this damn thread.

That's like me saying a lot of people are rapists but they refuse to acknowledge it - there's no basis to account for this, because if they did acknowledge it, well then they wouldn't be part of the group.

You made it sound so easy I got the app. Then I had to create other website logins to sync w with app etc and I still can’t find my second dose ETA. Used the chat function, same thing just a bunch of new links to try and the runaround.

I give up. I’ll just wait for my text lol

Just click on the vaccination does you got in your history and it'll be there.

You may have to wait a couple of seconds for it to populate.

Yes It's a fallacy, just like how you will have no idea if you will have side effects or not.

Since I cannot put words in to people's mouth, I should've said most people who fell ill after getting the jab, will not link it to the jab because of their ego.

90% of the people in this thread who mentioned they got their shot, also mentioned any side effects they felt, whether they had been pro or skeptical of the vaccine.

I just clicked on the my first dose shot, and on that page it told me when im eligible for my next shot, which less than a week but i havent received my text boooking yet. But since a bunch of people are getting hit harder when their 2nd shots, i dont mind waiting a tad longer and hopefully the 2nd dose hits me less harder if that make sense.

What side-effects did you feel after your first jab that may or may not be dismissed by you because of your ego?

breakthrough medicine is not without risks

we're in this shit 16 months deep and there's very few who actually want this to drag on so let's just play nice regardless of someone's choice?

i'm few days from 2nd dose and will continue masking probably rest of the year regardless of what our government tells us

I'm talking more about long term effects.

I think it's quite unanimous that the short term effects were there.

I can't speak to how things are outside of this thread but we have all been very forthcoming and transparent about our experiences with the vaccine. This is probably the 5th time I've said this but I actually had less side effects with my second dose of Pfizer and I wasn't the only one with this experience.

Anyways, I am happy to report that we are seeing very few covid cases at my hospital these days. It obviously isn't zero, but it's a stark contrast to what we were seeing at the peak of that third wave!

On another note, after tonight I will have surpassed 200 hours OT in 6.5 months (all of last year was 154). We are still busy at the hospital but at least for the most part, it ain't covid! We're still short handed btw, in case some of you were wondering. Looking forward to having a normal summer and a normal world again

Can you take that OT in pay? Or do you have to take it off in time?

Either way it sounds like a great time!
Banking all that money/time since there's currently nothing to do anyway, then blowing your excess load when everything opens up!

I don't even remember if I wrote this already but maybe got lost in this thread; my cousin who's a US fire fighter got his second dose.
He said the first dose he felt absolutely nothing, after the second dose it felt like he got hit by a truck, couldn't get out of bed for 3 days.
He's super fit, trains daily and crazy cardio. It scared me when he told me, if he's bedridden for 3 days, am I gonna die? lol ...

Personally my first dose, sore arm and mild headache.

One of my coworkers who got his first shot of Pfizer told me his foot was inflamed and painful, as well as having blurred vision for a week. He said he’s hesitant to get the second dose since he does not want to go through the pain again

My daughter had a sore throat for a couple of days so I took her for a gargle test today at 1:15. She got a text about 6 hours later letting her know it was negative.

Impressive.

problem is, even if I bank it, there's no guarantee we have enough staff for me to take the time off. so instead, I've taken the money for all of it lol.

On a side note, i keep harassing our anti vaxxers at work, (all trades guys so its harsh humor as usual) and turns out your actually "not allowed to ask" people if they have their vaccine? Something to do with privacy or something? Next thing you know, you cant ask what someone had for breakfast without HR showing up

World is going downhill 1 year at a time, id pay big bucks to go back to 1980 where noone was butthurt about everything and anything

Funny cause the anti Vaxxers are also most commonly in the “but my rights free speech!” Category.
What they usually mean by defending free speech though is that they can criticize peoples backgrounds and ways of life without being held accountable for their comments, but are the first to cry when someone criticizes them.

Unless you’re working in a care home or hospital I don’t feel like it’s any of an employers business whether you’ve been vaccinated or not
