Hanging with Dad. He had shot 2 at 3pm. So far no problems. His bro had a heart freak out that sent him to ER.

Looking good.

He did ask when it would be covering his ass so he could safely go out and be around friends.

Hopefully he's not too bad tomorrow. It takes a good 12 hours or so for any immune reactions to kick in.

I think I read two weeks after the second vaccine one should benefit from the full immunity effects.

Saw on the news last night that the two shot vaccines reach 95 percent effectiveness six to eight weeks after the FIRST shot while the one shot vaccine reaches full effectiveness after two weeks.

Has there been any additional information about the actual effectiveness of the vaccines?

The way Pfizer changed their numbers so rapidly after the announcement of their competitor left little doubt that the 95% was pulled out of somebody's ass.

how do I get on said list? I'll be anywhere post haste to make sure none is wasted. :p

I know someone working at a vaccination site and it seems like they have days when people scheduled for shots don't show so at the end of the day their looking for arms, so this person is asked at the end of the day if they know anyone that can get there in 25 minutes to get the unused shot.
While I was waiting the 15 minute post shot period a 30 something male came up to ask about left over shots and was told that's not happening but then was told to go to the next station to be sure. He didn't leave before I walked out so I'm guessing he got a shot.

Hope your Dad is doing well today. He can take a Motrin if he needs it.

He is doing well. Said all was good this AM and slept well.
2 weeks to a little freedom. He said he is looking forward to having a NA beer with friends.

Great news, Budman! I'm sure it's a relief for you. My parents (late 80's) are scheduled for next week.
