Have you been vaccinated?

[Stacyhs]

Michael44, I hope you continue to recover. It sounds like you've been through hell.

Thank you. And to be honest, I'm actually quite surprised I handled it as well as I did. From upon returning home sporting a wound vac along with daily rounds of self administered ertapenem via IV and a 'pic line', to today being almost totally healed up, I consider myself pretty darned lucky. Even with the covid ordeal. - Funny part, is every time doctors took pictures during the healing process, I was too much a chicken to ever view them up until today. As for the source of the wound, it was all because an old bitty with no insurance backed over my foot crushing it, which nearly eliminated a third of its flesh down to the heel bone. - But yeah, I'm good. May need a walker for the rest of my life, but at least I kept my foot and didn't die of covid for lack of being vaccinated (at the time). :~)

Oh, my! I hope the old bitty with no insurance at least had something you could sue her for.

She had little to no assets, so I chose not to sue her. and not that suing her would have done either of us any good. This was truly one of those '◊◊◊◊ happens' sort of moments.

Nice of you. But no insurance: she shouldn't have been driving. That's that 'personal responsibility" Gov. Abbott thinks people have.

My mobster name as of Wednesday last week is Timmy Two-Shots. I'm probably very soon as well protected against COVID I'm ever going to be.

Fortunately, we addressed that as per a police report along with her daughters ambitious agreement to remove her mothers driving privileges. Yeah, I felt bad in how I might feel having my own removed, but then given the circumstances. Also, she was quite short, as in barely able to see over the steering wheel, much less reach the brake and gas pedal.

Gov Abbott? if there was ever a reason to wish the world was flat, it would be for having the ability to push him over the edge. Same goes for DeSantis, etc.

I am absolutely fully vaxxed as of early July.

And kinda like I was absolutely thrilled when Biden was elected, I am now staring at my computer screen with that "Offred isn't sure whether to s*** or go blind" expression.

Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke is now on a ventilator after being diagnosed with Covid. He is a vaccine skeptic and has spread misinformation.

Burke, 73, served as Archbishop of St. Louis from 2003 to 2008, according to the St. Louis Post Dispatch. His current role is Cardinal Priest of Sant’Agata de’ Goti in Rome, but the Post-Dispatch reported he caught the virus in Wisconsin, where he founded the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in the city of La Crosse.

It’s unclear if Burke has been vaccinated, but last year he falsely suggested the COVID-19 vaccines inject a microchip that would allow citizens to “to “be controlled by the state regarding health and about other matters which we can only imagine,” Religion News reported.

The idea the vaccines contain microchips has been disproven by multiple fact-checking websites, including PolitiFact.

Referring to COVID-19 as the Wuhan virus — a term often used by former President Donald Trump — Burke said in December the virus was being used “by certain forces... to advance their evil agenda,” according to Irish Central.

At the onset of the pandemic last year, Burke said the most effective way to combat the coronavirus is “our relationship with Christ through prayer and penance.”

So I guess that's one vote from the Cardinal for "No, God will protect me. You can't trust science".

No god will protect me.

You can't.

Trust science!

Recieved my second Moderna shot yesterday. My local vaccination center has moved to a drop-in model, in a bid to encourage more young people to get vaccinated, and since I was in the area anyway, I decided to get the second show then instead of waiting until my booked appointment on thursday.

Well, I guess you know that the strongest evidence the earth is not flat is that, if it was, then by now, cats would have already pushed everything of the edge.

First jab today; six weeks wait for second.

Easy, calm, and no alt-reality types anywhere to be seen.

Civilisation.

Second shot (Pfizer-BioNTech) about 12 hours ago.

Feelings a bit of a fever and chills I don't remember this feeling after the first.

Same as I experienced and many others I know. Don't be surprised if it wipes the floor with you for a few days.

Wonder why it affects people so differently. My Pfizer first shot - mildly sore arm, second shot - nothing. (Maybe I got one of those nurses who was substituting saline )
