Second dose got me pretty good. Last night chills and aches, today fatigue and headaches.

Oh well, better than the virus.
My better half got the Moderna one and the first dose did this so badly she had to call in sick. Felt fine the next day though.

As far as vaccines and Canada is concerned...

"We are holding them accountable to the 4 million Q1 doses."

Yeah, and wtf are you gonna do if they don't meet it? Tell them you won't buy their super-scarce highly-demanded pandemic vaccine? I'm sure they'll be crushed.

I would think some of this is likely due to population density and the associated logistics.

I know we're talking per capita, but comparing to Malta is kinda unfair to Canada. I mean, it's an island (I know, technically an archipelago, but 95% of the population is on the namesake island) that's probably half the size of Toronto, geographically speaking. The entire island can be to the main hospital in Valletta in an hour or less.

I was told when getting it that most people have a rougher time with the second dose. I never had any issues with any others vaccines so I didn't worry. I was fine until 24 hours later.
Oh well sleeping and watching movies all day. Child be worse.

Yeah that's what's scaring her too lol. Hoping for her sake it isn't because it was pretty rough.

Sure but Brazil, Turkey, Poland, Romania etc. are all ahead as well. Much more comparable and still behind.

I havent heard anything about a bottleneck preventing the provinces from getting vaccine from the fed govt. You chalk it up to it being a supply side issue from the manufacturer... and thats to be expected imo when were dealing with whats probably the highest demanded global commodity out there right now :noidea:

/this made me lol

In response to Pfizer's change of plans, Ontario Premier Doug Ford quickly declared that, if he were prime minister, he'd be on the phone to Pfizer's top executive demanding the previously scheduled shipments. "I'd be up that guy's ying-yang so far with a firecracker he wouldn't know what hit him,"

It stands to reason that if getting a plentiful supply of the Pfizer vaccine was as easy as getting up Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla's ying-yang with a firecracker, nearly every leader on the planet would be doing so. But Ford got a chance to test his theory — a day later he spoke with the president of Pfizer Canada. If a firecracker was lit during that conversation, it has so far failed to change Pfizer's plans

It all ended well in the end (if you follow the whole thread). But seriously this is why this can’t end soon enough.

If this affects the UK, I hope the people revolt and throw out the Johnsons and Farages that lied them into Brexit.
But the people that need to revolt are the same people who believed the lie because it was printed on the side of a bus.

"Seems unlikely, but if it's on a BUS..."

So, Mrs 43 just told me of the Vaccine Distribution plan for the Columbus area teachers.

They have designated two separate sites for teachers to come to over the span of five days to get the shot. This is for 30+ school districts. And the method is for each teacher to go onto a website and get their appointment. the site went live this morning and, as you would expect, has been pretty well destroyed all day. Of the 45 teachers at just her school ONE has managed to get an appointment and that was on the last day.

Even if the site had worked, that leaves each school in the area to deal with random numbers of teachers being out of the building at varying times over a period of five different days.

Why not just contact each school, get the number of doses needed, and go to each school or designate one school in each district to deliver them? I mean really they could vaccinate her entire school in less than an hour with no disruption to classes. 5 teams of people moving from school to school delivering could easily do it in 5 days.

How can they keep getting this so wrong?
