Everyone here seems to have been vaccinated with the German vaccine.
Yes, it is our job to vaccinate the rest of the world before we think of ourselves. We will soon rename Germany to Jermany, to signify that we are the manifestation of Jesus himself.
You guys do see what's going on, don't you?! Germany develops a "miracle vaccine" based on mRNA and gives it to the rest of the world, but doesn't give it to their own people... Hmmmm. Ya'll will be lizard people or blonde haired and blue eyed by June.

Still waiting. I've had emails from the State of Massachusetts telling me I'm still pre-registered, which is getting a little tiresome.
To be honest, I'm kind of done waiting at this point. The wife's younger than me, so her wait will presumably be even longer.

@doctor-phibes Phibes, I registered with our state, and have never heard back at all from the state since then., which was many weeks ago. I registered with my county when the next group opened, and I heard back in a few days directly from my county. If there's another way to register in your area, maybe try that one, too.

Received my first Pfizer poke yesterday morning. No side effects whatsoever.
I had originally thought I would get mine in June and my spouse would get hers in April being that she works in a cancer hospital. No and in fact, from what one of the radiation oncologists told her, it is the only cancer hospital in North America where the health care staff have not received priority vaccinations.

Connecticut opened up for everyone April 1st.
Sitting in the waiting area now for those who’ve received their shot (moderna). I get to wait 30 minutes instead of 15 due to a shellfish allergy.

That doesn't make a lot of sense, given that she could bring it in among patients with already weakened immune systems. There must be more to it than I am aware of.

The official rationale is since most patients are out patients the medical and rehab med staff are in full PPE for all treatments and assessments the risk is minimal. Strangely enough they have yet have had any outbreaks within the hospital or traceable transmissions back to the hospital since this pandemic began last March. We'll see what happens now with the variants spreading. I suspect the vaccines are now going to happen sooner rather than later. The Doctors are beginning to complain publically.

Well guess what hit the local news waves this afternoon....
We found out about it last night via text message from an OT my wife works alongside.
Scuttlebutt among the staff is that it is one of the variants either P1 or P3. If the former, that's not good.
I know someone who's going to be tested up the nose tomorrow am.

Hope all turns out well.
Test this am. Results Friday.
In the meantime, first Pfizer dose scheduled for 3 pm Monday. Suddenly the cancer hospital staff become priorty health care providers. How amazing!

I hope everything is OK, Renauda.
Just got an email from the State of MA saying I'll get another email tomorrow allowing me to book my shot. Not sure why they need to send two emails, but there you go. There's a big vaccination center at the Patriots stadium, so hopefully it will all be pretty straightforward.
