wrong time, locked in, locked out

Work has decreed that all employees must be double-vaxxed by the end of October, and the Old Man's residence sent out a notice that all visitors must be able to produce the new vaccine passport. Both require a licensed version, so yesterday I dropped out of the clinical trial and went to a pharmacy that was giving out Moderna.

My arm is killing me and I feel like complete ass.

Early night tonight I think.

*hugs* I hope the ass-ness passes quickly!

(Congrats on your vaccine!)

Yeah, that sounds about right.

Hoping it passes soon!

That was the main reason I decided not to participate in the trial. Although to date, the Assembly has not stated that it will be requiring all staff to be fully vaxxed. But there's also the vaccine passport coming into effect on the 22nd.

Did you talk to the trial about mixing vaccines?

It's something that isn't allowed here, but I think I've seen the Americans doing it (but, they gave us HQ and Ivermectin, so....) but I'd guess there could be potential side effects.

I thought you were double-jabbed, so I guess you've now had a booster shot!

Oh Moderna kicked my ass hard. It seems (anecdata here only) to be the one that gives more side effects on average than Pfizer, at least from the people I know who have gotten it. Feel better and yay for vaccination <3

I'm team Moderna also. The first shot wasn't too bad for me... some chills, my temp went up a bit, etc. The second shot really kicked my butt though. 36 hours of high temp, body aches, chills, etc. The weird thing (and I had been warned about this... and it turned out to be true for me) is that when it was done, it was _done_. I went from "ugh. one more nap. I can't function" to "Hm. I think I'm going to go to the store" in a matter of about 2-3 minutes. I don't know if that's universal, but I was warned about it and it did happen to me.

I hope #2 goes well for you. :)
