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

Happy have now had the 1st & 2nd vaccine (Maderna). No side effects from 1st but the 2nd arm was much more sore & the next day didn't feel too good. Tired & slept alot. Had heard the 2nd vaccine people had had some side effects. But personally didn't care, nothing severe & was just glad had the vaccine.

I have had my two injections of the vaccine on 12/10 and 12/31. I had minor soreness at the injection site after my 2nd shot. No other complications. My vaccine was Pfizer.

@KeyaraE Both my Neurologist & my Primary said yes to getting the vaccine & what I've read & heard from the MS Society reccomends it. Have been with my doctors for many years & trust what they say.

I got my shot yesterday and I had some arm soreness. I get the second March 10. My neurologist said it was a good idea to get it done. I was just newly diagnosed with a mild form of PD.

There is so much disinformation about the vaccines. Tested on animals? Yes, I read that testing was performed on various live specimens. I have no choice but to rely on the vaccine. It is either that, or I cower in my home for the rest of my life, because if I were to contract COVID, I would surely die.

I have taken the first dose of the Maderna vaccine, and am scheduled to take the follow up shot on February 23rd. I had mild flu symptoms, and have been told that the follow up will probably cause a stronger response. Matters not. I have Grand children that I want to hug and spend time with. It's worth the risk for me. Everyone has a choice to make. I have made mine. God bless us all.
