Covid Vaccine

[iammooks]

It's good to see so many positive attitudes here towards getting the vaccine. Another site I was on ended up deleting every thread on Covid and the vaccine because it was full of conspiracy idiots. These people need to have a word with themselves.

I definitely feel reassured knowing there are more people scared of needles out there. I desperately want to give blood, but when I saw the size of the needle, that was it for me.

I'll work myself up for weeks when I know I'll be having the vaccine, and will do it all over again when I have the second jab. It's not going to be a fun time - but if a wuss like me will put myself through the anxiety, I don't think anyone else really has a valid excuse - I'm doing it for the health of other people rather than for me.

And yes, four tattoos, including one on my ribs. Riddle me that...

The brain works in mysterious ways lol I guess if people think it's all the governments and pharmaceutical companies etc etc then it's going to be tough to get that out of someones train of thought...

Yeah needle fear isn't talked about that much bar this thread haha it's good to know, i'm not sure how you all get tattoos lol that's just a no go for me... Maybe you're needle sizeist haha

I find it very interesting as I now wear a Fitbit Sense on how much info correlates to stress and anxiety, I found my last Fitbit very handy as pre blackout I use the heart rate monitor to keep my bpm down as much as possible lol

I guess that's your choice lol there will be every sort of response to the vaccine I imagine. It's interesting to see how others think about it.

Most of my friends say they probably wouldn't have it (late 30's) because it's a 2 step and then every few months but would get it if it stopped them from being able to do basic things without a vaccine passport

It’s better than suffering Covid. I’ve had mine and suffered no side effects. As for needles, doesn’t bother me. I’ve just got over cancer so been stabbed that many times plus I have injections in my spine and don’t bother with gas and air - I just go into a bubble and ignore it. I have a couple of locals but that’s it.

Happy for you getting over cancer, great news! I guess when something happens a lot it loses its grip on anything you had against it. In my mind it's not better than having covid and that's my issue haha

The needle for the vaccine is tiny compared to the one for giving blood plus it goes into a muscle not a vein. I’ve been having all my childhood vaccinations again as chemotherapy and stem cell treatment wiped them out. Out of all my numerous injections, the pneumonia and flu jabs gave me mild side effects and the Covid gave me none. Don’t worry mate - you’ll be fine.

I wonder if they have an excess stock and you happened to be chosen from that bit of stock, your parents may be in a different pool or something. Who knows but it doesn't quite make sense...

Haha I think everyone should have a lads/ladies holiday as you've no doubt been stuck with the other half for quite some time. Everyone needs personal space eventually lol

Mate think of it this way.
Once you have had the vaccine you lessen the chance of spreading the disease. This has to be a good thing.

Hahahaha

I love all the rules and regulations

You can drink outside but only with a main meal but only on the 2nd wednesday of the month but not if that day falls on a date that can be divided by 3



All a load of nonsense

Whats the 4 tests? I honestly don’t really listen to the news too much now, all doom and gloom

good to see most are positive about the vaccine.
For those that say its a personal choice, and indicate they won't get it, - yes technically it is a personal choice, but from a societal point of view people should take it. some might even say its selfish not to, with those saying i don't need this jab or that jab are only able to to live with low risk as others get vaccinated.

Those saying it might then end up being taking it every few months, it won't get to that. the initial jab is 90% of the protection, the second helps your body build a longer term protection. But yes, there is potential for there to be updates to the jabs every so often, but i know there is already work in progress for vaccines that will provide protection less susceptible to mutations. Having said all that, despite the reports of mutations so far it the current jabs still do the job.

Ignore the conspiracy theories, get it done.

So what you're saying is that it's not the 5G network or the governments getting cash for the pharmaceutical companies lol my favourite has to be the anti covid protesters that protest without masks then get Covid... that one gets me every time.

I do wish that in this day and age thing shouldn't have to be needles all the time but I guess it's easier to create a liquid than a pill.

I reckon they'll invent a vaccine in tablet form.

It’s already in testing for tablet form.

Had mine 3 weeks ago now. Fine on the day, then woke up at 2am with my teeth chattering so loud my partner woke up, was frozen to the bone and couldn’t get warm, I’m usually immune to the cold, then started throwing up and hour later, then 6am alarm goes off and I couldn’t get up. 12 hours later im fine again.

Its said the worse your reaction the better immunity your building.

A mate who was really poorly when positive has been tested for antibodies.
He is donating plasma, he has the highest possible antibody count.
I went to donate plasma but my veins weren't suitable.
