    Yes if I’m eligible, but there’s been a few vaccines I haven’t been able to get over the years because of allergies

    I'll get it immediately. I want to see my parents. And tbh I'm too strong for a vaccine to actually hurt me.

    saw this on twitter


    concerned about side affects while Jeremiah was in ICU with it.

    It hits african americans harder too. Less vitamin d is a theory why

    Short answer; yes.

    Longer answer, I believe it will be mandatory to have it if you want to leave your own country. Similar to how malaria shots are required to certain parts of the world. If the choices come to never being able to travel properly again or take a vaccine that is still in its infancy then I'm going with the vaccine.

    Either way, as the vaccine gets more usage we will begin setting if side effects are a real dear it not. In the UK, we've been vaccinating people for a week now and all that's been reported is 2 nurses who have had an allergic reaction to it. That and being advised not to take it off you're pregnant or trying to concieve.

    I'm paranoid about pretty much anything so i'm going to wait a bit to see how it affects other people.

    I've had shots before but something about this one makes me skeptical. Don't really know what it is.

    This vaccine was made in a few months, other vax not. And no, I'm not an antivaxer.

    it's been in development for 17 years and is just a small fork of the SARS vaccine they had been working on. since SARS is so close to COVID.
