Coronavirus Thread VI: Are We Nearly There Yet? (READ OP)

I have covid arm

My arm was a little sore both times I was vaccinated against something else on both occasions. No other side effects were detected. "Covid arm" is misleading. It should be called something else.

My best mate got his second dose, he is all vaccinated up

I wish I could say the same for my best mate. He is super anti-vaxx. I don’t even bring up the fact that I was vaccinated..

I’ve had strangers coming out of nowhere to tell me they got vaxxed. If you want it, get it, but I don’t see why you have to tell everyone. It’s just like vegans, “Hello, I’m vegan by the way.”

It’s not just soreness. I’ve got a pretty sizable rash and my arm is a bit swollen.

Still an idiot, but at least a bit better

I have covid arm

I had it from the first shot. Antihistamine cream for the itch helps a lot. Also, since it can be and feel hot to the touch, cold compresses. It’s a delayed immune response and isn’t normally dangerous but do monitor it. It could take up to two weeks to vanish. Be patient.

My rash isn’t really itching that much. But it hurts. Doesn’t help that I also fell down the stairs yesterday and scraped up my leg. I’m fine, but thanks to a combination of that and my covid vaccine, my whole body hurts.

Yeah, he still said that young people don’t need the vaccine, which it is younger, unvaccinated people filling up the hospitals with more severe cases because older people are getting vaccinated.

Both doses at once...

I've been eligible for a while, but was finally able to get the vaccine today! Quick and easy after I got in. Side effects a plenty and I'm craving fast food even after eating a roast beef lunch meat sandwich for lunch, but if I can get it done then anyone can!

Other than bona fide, already diagnosed medical reasons, including age restrictions, there is literally no excuse! I will go as far as to say that I think it should be against the law in the US to not agree to be vaccinated (except for said medical reasons).

Alaska Airlines banned State Sen. Lora Reinbold for not complying with their mask policy. They also happen to operate the only regular flights between her home & the state capital, so she now has to drive 14+ hours, partially through Canada, and take a ferry to reach Juneau.

Biden bans most travel to U.S. from India to limit COVID-19 spread

Unfortunately, this had to be done. I hope we can send more supplies to India, such as oxygen and vaccines, but it is too dangerous to allow travel from India to the United States as of right now.

India passes 400,000 new cases a day

[Luminesa]

I've been wondering how we can help people in India, and I've found a couple lists of resources:

https://www.itv.com/news/2021-04-27/cov ... oronavirus
https://abcnews.go.com/International/in ... d=77322355

It might be good to vet some of these charities since many of them are international, and sometimes getting money to people internationally means jumping through loops, but this is a bunch of ways that we can help people suffering in India. They need it, so even a little bit from everyone helps.

It's called "a sharp object just stabbed you in the shoulder." I would be more surprised if I felt no ache at all after having my skin and muscle tissue pierced.

According to anti vaxxers, that much vaccine at once will make you become this:

Having had a fairly large number of shots in the arm over my lifetime, it wasn’t like a normal shot at all.

I felt like I got punched by a gorilla again.

Second dose?

Both.

But I pulled a stupid on the first one and let them put it in my arm that has hardware, not realizing how it would make my muscles seize and pull violently at the hardware.

Second one made my muscles seize even harder, but I had them put it in the arm without hardware, so it was more "being punched by a gorilla" and less "I feel like my arm is coming apart".

No, but I have a titanium bridge.
