Who is getting the COVID-19 Vaccine?

Outside of a lightly sore arm I didn’t have any reaction to first or second shot really.

This just means our immune systems are superior. Or the vaccine won't work. Either way its a win-win!

I think there is only a few true anti-vaxxers. The rest are just not concerned with vaccinating for everything and are not worried about this virus in particular. There is a big difference between those two sub-groups.

Don't say such things. That can't exist.

People don't care your reasons.. If you don't get vaccinated you are immediately a ant-vax type.

Keep in mind that the poll started in December, they was way more hesitancy about the mRNA vaccines at the time and it's likely that some "No" voters changed their minds since then.

There's nothing actually scary about people not wanting the Covid vaccine unless you work in media.

I don’t care whether people are vaccinated or not specifically. More alarming is what it says about them that they aren’t.

It says nothing about those people, but it does say a lot about you with how you think and your "opinions".

Its hilarious people are still so 1 sided when it comes to this stupid pandemic and vaccine and if you don't follow the norm something must be wrong.

Or medical field with a stupid oath that you have to save them when they are hit with it.

Also not scary at all. If doing your job is frightening, or you can be that easily biased against happily performing it, get a new job. Or if you are scared you could.....I dunno....get vaccinated yourself?

Did you get Pfizer? I got it both times and my symptoms were very minimal. My arm was more sore the second time but right around the 24hr mark it started feeling better. No flu like symptoms and a little bit of tiredness. Probably has something to do with my high deadlift frequency

No Moderna, which was my preference. Glad to hear you didn't have it too bad!

The nurse told me almost everyone she has seen reacts differently.

I'm the only person in my whole extended family fully vaccinated.
I'm the minority there and shit on for succumbing to government control.

It's not about following the "norm", nor is it about his opinion. The norm is the norm because we have vaccines available to fight a deadly virus and most people were smart enough to take it. It isn't about following the public, but instead following the advice of a multi billion dollar medical entity who employs doctors far more intelligent than you or I, who spent their lifetimes learning disease.

And as far as opinions go, I'm glad you put it in quotes, because you're right - it's not about opinion. It's about facts. Facts like... if you are vaccinated, there is far less chance you are going to end up killing other people. Or, facts like if not enough of our population does their part, they are forcing everyone into further restrictions.

Or, put another way, the fact that people who refused the vaccine largely did so because they care about themselves and their viewpoint more than the public good.

You are indeed right about the 1 sidedness and division of this pandemic. You have one side who is trying to do what they can to end it, and the other side who just doesn't give a fuck.

On an interesting side note, I have had a possible small vaccine reaction that I had never heard about. I notice within a day of getting my second vaccination that all my tattoo's started swelling and getting incredibly itchy and painful. I didn't think to much of it because anyone who has tattoos has experienced mild versions of this, especially with fresher tattoos, but I have had tattoos going back 35 years and never has it been like this. After talking with a local doctor of internal medicine he did in fact confirm it is likely from the vaccine reacting with the antibodies my body has already created to do with the inks in my system over the years. He asked if I noticed any one colour reacting more than another and in fact the black was reacting more than any other colour. If it was constant or if it flares up multiple times etc (which is does throughout the day), is there and actual rash (no) etc etc.

Again I should point out there is no 100% tested confirmation this was why it was happening, but the way it all is happening and the discussion with the doctor does lead me to believe it is quite reasonable to assume it as such. He said it should start calming down as time goes on and it has. Not completely yet but much less so than the first few weeks.

By no means should this deter anyone as it isn't something dangerous or debilitating more than simply irritating, but I thought it was interesting and worth mentioning anecdotally.
