Hello everyone,

How are you today? emoticon cute

The pharmaceutical groups Pfizer (USA) and BioNTech (Germany), as well as Moderna (USA), announced last month that their vaccine candidates are around 94 and 95% "effective" in preventing COVID-19 infections, according to preliminary results of their large-scale phase 3 trials, which are still ongoing. 

Earlier this week, the White House Coronavirus Task Force was in discussion about the FDA approval (slated for December 10th at the earliest), with rumors of a vaccine launch as early as the week of December 14th!

What do you think about this? Would you be interested in getting vaccinated against COVID-19 once the vaccine is available? 

Feel free to discuss and share in the comments below!

Take care,

Courtney

I absolutely support the vaccine. I personally was in respiratory failure and life support 6 yrs ago from an illness and I hope to never repeat that experience. I have 2 close physician relatives. One has worked tirelessly in the Covid unit. His emotional description of caring for these patients who were unable to have visitors were heart wrenching. The other was exposed to Covid patients. It is horrendous.

I was told that if you qualify for the imunocomprimised shot, it is actually a third full dose of it is the Pfizer or Moderna, not a booster

Took both doses of Moderna back in March. Had too many of my friends die horribly not to get vaccinated as soon as I could. Please, please......PLEASE......everyone talk to your doctor and get vaccinated NOW!  This thing is far from over! My only reaction was mild flu-like symptons for about a day after the second shot. Don't let the fearful ones stop you. God has blessed America with a great scientific community.......take advantage of it.

Hi everyone 😃

I did take the vaccine (Moderna) 

no regrets so far , maybe it’s a coincidence , and after a gallbladder removal and liver biopsy , I feel better .. maybe it doesn’t have to do with vaccine , but I have NASH and from. F3-4 it reversed to F-1 … my specialist recommended me to have it …

@ I’m not convinced she would not have had the blood clot anyway with or without the vaccine.

@dan.varady Agree 100%.  Get the vaccine people.  If my 95 year old mother in law got the vaccine with absolutely no problems to me that sounds like anyone should be safe taking it.
