The UK has started vaccinating, today. Other countries are coming up shortly. The US is starting by the end of the month, and so is Canada. Even though we can't MAKE the vaccine, we ordered more than literally anywhere else so we're GETTING IT. Europe and especially Germany, probably soon too!
Eventually, the girl reading this (hey) WILL GET THEIR SHOT TOO! If you're an American stock trader, you'll even get one really soon because you're essential. Wow. It must feel good to be so important!
As the next year happens and people get their shots, I thought it would be good to have a single place to keep track of this monumental endeavor. Post when you get yours, give hope to others, and once important rollout information starts being put out, post that too! I'll add any relevant information people need to know to the OP. You'll get yours.
EVERYBODY.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74BzSTQCl_cOh hey nobody's done this but I feel like I need to put this up here: if anybody walks in here with some antivax shit you will be unwelcome from this thread so fast holy shit. You're gonna get reported and the mods will be called.
The Pfizer data is most complete and says that it takes 14 days until you have 53% protection, then if you take the followup + 14 days you hit 95%
So your party may start 5-6 weeks after your shot.
And spread the word: These vaccines have a pretty good chance of giving you a pretty annoying 24h. Mild fever, tiredness etcet. That is a sign of the vaccine working.
Make sure to tell people this if they are hemming about getting the second shot.

I am young and healthy and disposable so mine will likely be very late
as for me, if I've got antibodies in my veins by my birthday in late July I'll be happy
and since most current governments are right-wing fascistic hellscapes, welp
hope you're rich and white I guess
I’m one of those things!
loan me money then!

I'm wondering how that'll apply to substitute teachers.

They should call you in once a teacher misses their appointment, logically
you're the one giving the shots
gimme money, hob

Also booze.
As for the covid shot, I'm looking forward to it, obviously, although I probably won't be getting it right away or anything because I'm not particularly essential in the grand scheme of things. Plus I've already had covid once, and while you can't rely on that for absolute immunity or anything, I've still got some resistance going for me for a bit by most medical estimates.
Usually I get it in October, but that's because my work will bring someone in to the office to administer flu shots to anyone who wants them. Without that, I put it off for a bit, and then I got sick and one thing led to another.
A local comedian/newsman had a segment where he demonstrated they could technically administer the vaccine with social distancing through mooning out of your car window and shooting it at your butt with a tranq gun so
maybe
hopefully we'll be in january?
I then got a hot dog & Mountain Dew from Cotsco for $2.
Costco is good stuff.
Costco hot dogs are the absolute best
Maybe? I;d be surprised if not although I know someone claimed that all American citizens would get it for free
it depends, and it will probably end up being the folks who need it most being the ones needing to pay.
The part I'm worried about is how hard they'll make it mandatory, I suspect "not very much" which is a problem.
i would imagine this is still in a state of completely calming uncertainty
Edit: Here is more clarity on that from a 11/17 report:
So, the first 200 million doses (which equals 100 million people) will be free from the two companies currently with effective vaccines.
From what I’ve read you’re going to get a little sick when you get the vaccine...so anti-vaxxers are going to jump all over it.
It is unknown! We know the President paid Moderna millions to make their vaccine available in the USA first, though I'm pretty sure Pfhiser beat them to it so it was a hilarious waste of money, but I'm pretty sure most insurances will cover it? Of course what about uninsured Americans? Who knows!
That’s what that means right? Eating a hot dog?
