I'd go line up today for it. It's been shown to be safe in the short / intermediate term, there is zero difference in getting it today versus in April. Any 'long term' issues that people keep worrying about won't show up between now and summer if they did exist anyways. There's nothing special about me so if 50k people got it and have no issues then I'm fairly confident I'll be perfectly fine. If I had certain health issues, allergies, or was in a different risk category then I'd have different thoughts but being a average person I have 0 worry about taking it. God knows when I was younger I did worse things to my body and it survived just fine.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Dude, why would you mean the US? This is just you saving face and not admitting you are wrong here. Canada is very relevant as we are all Canadians, and being asked if WE (you and I) are getting the vaccine. I mean, lets assume worst case scenario here, shit goes wrong, we can't go begging the USA to let us use their programs...C'mon!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It's shit like this being spouted off that makes me question things and be nervous about something that would normally take years, get rammed through in record time, and then you tell me that I am being paranoid and not to worry? Dude...

No, I meant Canada in general is not relevant to Pfizer's interests or motivations. We're more of an annoyance to them in general. You think Canada's actions have any relevance to how Pfizer views the vaccine? If anything, this simply relates to pricing, not "confidence".This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Besides, I have no particular interest in Pfizer's confidence one way or the other. I can look at the data and see for myself.
Yep, when I have my chance I will be getting it, whichever 'it' vaccine is available. But that won't be until quite a while from now anyway.
Inovio's DNA-based vaccine is still in the works but their early-on trials indicated that T-Cell response was much better than the others out there and was highly stable for transport, not even needing to be sub-zero. It won't matter as Canadians won't be able to go to the store and have a choice on what to take. Moreover, many Canadians will observe for several months how the most vulnerable, physically, react to the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines anyways. If anything is wrong with it, by the time it reaches us normies the gremlins will have surfaced but I honestly don't see much happening. These vaccines have come together at a pace previously thought impossible but when global collaboration and entire research focus shifted to one scope, it doesn't make me worried. It's actually quite remarkable how the world has come together on this.

I will be getting it. Absolutely.
And then you'll get the vaccine that comes after it when you get bored of the first one, and then the one after that, etc...This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Might even alternate vaccines every couple weeks to see which flavour he likes betterThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

"I'll take the black vaccine in the black syringe please"
If I can drive it then why note....
I'm too lazy to read if this has been asked but if you get the vaccine can you travel without quarantining upon return?

My wife should be getting it before the end of the year being a nurse in a long term care facility. Given that she is getting it, I have no hesitation getting it myself. Might as well go through it together, unfortunately that won't be the case for me for some time. I would get it day 1 if given a choice. I can't wait to travel! I do hope it's a requirement, so all those anti-vaxxers can just sit at home and keep the crazies down to a minimum on my flights
My wife just said today that she hopes people will continue to wear masks when sick with whatever, to prevent the spread. This whole mask wearing has been happening in Japan for YEARS before it became fashionable here, specifically to prevent spread of whatever sickness you got when sick.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

I think Karen's might wear them after all this is over...select few people, but most will go back to the good old days.
id definitely wear a mask in crowded place in the winters - trains, buses, airports, ferries (if I ever take one again) and by crowded I mean lots of people
That's par for the course on every vaccine. That's like the main piece of information that anti vaxxers stick to when claiming vaccines aren't safe.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I think so. I think non-Asian people will be more likely to wear a mask if they're not feeling well now that it's become more commonplace. It was rare to see east of Vancouver. But at this point, the pandemic has made people a lot more aware of spread, so I think it might be a thing now. Especially among those who have non-disposable masks.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

From the US:
'My daughter stopped by today, said they came around at work today (large Private medical group) asking who wanted the vaccine. At first there were ZERO takers, finally 1 DR said he would if required.
She, and at least half the staff on her floor, said if it is required like the flu vax, they will turn in their 2 week notice that day. She is the head nurse for 2, of the roughly 100 Dr's in the building.'
