I get your point but there two sides to every story.....the bureaucracy preventing fast development of life saving medications is not a good thing to me. The only way we got these vaccines in a hurry is Donald Trump...nothing else!!!

For months the so called experts bad mouthed Ivermectin then amazingly it was proclaimed very effective. Any drug that has been on the market for years and is cheap will be bad mouthed at the behest of the drug companies and their mouth pieces in the medical profession!!!

Not an option for me. Johns Hopkins did a study for folks with my issues, and found the mRNA vaccines for us to be less than satisfactory in outcome.

For folks who take a drug I take twice a day, only 7.5% of study participants formed the coronavirus antibodies, as opposed to 100% of the control group.

I hope the J&J vaccine proves better for us.

Good point. I had to show a photo ID both times...to establish my identity,my age and my place of residence.

And yet here in Massachusetts it's *Illegal* for any government official/employee to ask for an ID when registering a person to vote *or* at the voting place (I was told that by a Town official a few years ago).

Strange... here in Saint George, Utah. We both got the J&J on Thursday, first day of availability here. We had the 2nd and 3rd time slots reserved at 12:05 and 12:10, but it was a disorganized mess at the senior citizens’ center with counter directives being given by various officious volunteers of stay outside, go in, go right, go left, check your name on the list to the right, left, straight ahead, don’t enter until noon, go on in, don’t go in, wait here, go there, go to the end of the long line despite your guaranteed appointment time... SHEESH!

By being aggressive, we did wind up getting in first, but not due to the organization of the people there... but there were still about fifteen people ahead of us in line. It seems the “appointment sign-ups” were useless, meant nothing, to the people at the center. They’d let people in by side doors, had friends come early, etc. There was also a line up for the J&J vaccines of about 100 people, despite it being by “appointment only,” with their door guards trying to tell us to get in the back of the line when we arrived at 11:30 for our 12:05 and 12:10 appointments with only one person supposedly ahead of us in line per their website. Say what? Get in line behind 100 or so opportunistic walk-ups? Not in this world.

Not once were we asked to prove who we were by showing our photo ID, yet they issued us a CDC government approved medical vaccine card in our names showing we had received the Johnson & Johnson Jannsen Covid-19 vaccine on April 9, 2021 and were officially granted the honor, privileges, and authorities attached to having received the degree of Covid19 vaccine survivor. I could have signed up as Daffy Duck and been accepted.

Side effects? My lady had developed a low grade fever by about 8PM, we both had head aches, body aching, and I had very crusty eyes during the night, so much so that my eyes were glued shut when I awoke at 3AM. I also found I was getting random pin pricks in various places around my body during the first 24 hours. Food tasted funny when we went to lunch at about 3PM the day of receiving the injections, including the glass of wine my lady had. Not bad, but everything had a slight metallic taste. This passed in a few hours. We did not experience it when we had a snack later in the evening. We both have mild symptoms of arthritis, both of us experienced flare ups of those symptoms beyond normal during the next couple of days. I have non-diabetes related neuropathy in my feet, this neuropathy had a strange flare up of both numbness and fire-like pain at the same time the evening of the injection. . . Which would go along with the random stabs of pin-prick pains, a similar phantom nerve firing symptom. The last two nights for me were disturbed by tossing and turning and very vivid, full technicolor, apparently scripted, dreams (my bed covers were very tangled in the mornings!) I wish I could remember all the dreams, they were quite interesting and enjoyable! My lady said she had fever spikes during the nights.

We both had apparent cases of a Covid19 like illness in late December 2019, early January 2020, before it was on anyone’s radar. We had travelled from Saint George back to Sacramento for Christmas to see family, and had flown out of Las Vegas McCarran Airport. On the way there, we’d stopped for breakfast at a Denny’s Restaurant and seated at a two-top table right next to a long table where they’d seated a large Chinese family of obvious travelers from China with many children, all of whom were sneezing, coughing, hacking and chattering away at the tops of their lungs in Chinese. We were not more than three teen away from the closest of them. Five days later, my lady came down with similar symptoms, lost her sense of taste, had a deep dry cough, aching, exhaustion, etc., all the symptoms we’d later know associated with Covid19... I followed about three days later. We both were moderately sick for two to three weeks.

We have had long haul symptoms which have continued to afflict us... especially the lack of energy. My lady later developed what has been termed Covid Toes and finds she gets exhausted with just a bit of exertion. For me, I found that I have developed something wrong in either my lungs or my ability of my blood to carry oxygen. I had a scheduled medical procedure in February, when they put a Blood Oximeter on me, they discovered that where I had been consistently at a 98% or higher Blood Ox level before, I was now presenting a blood os of only 88%! This is getting down into the dangerous level. They went ahead with my procedure, but strongly urged me to see my GP to explore what was going on with my blood O2 level.

My GP ordered an overnight O2 study which is just wearing a blood oximeter while I slept which is connected to a miniature recording device on my wrist. It found that I spent 256 minutes with my Blood O2 below 86% with drops down to 81%! YIKES! Good news was no sleep apnea where I stopped breathing. I now have to sleep with an Oxygen generator. Don’t need Oxygen during the day, as I average 91% to 93%, which is still within the “normal” range, but it does drop to 88% occasionally.

I decided to take the “shot” due to growing anecdotal evidence that getting a “vaccine” has in many cases helping people with “long haul” covid problems, with the exhaustion and lack of energy problems being relieved within a few days or weeks of getting their vaccine therapies. This is apparently reported more often with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine than with the other treatments, so I elected to try it in hopes of getting some relief. My Lady had also made the decision for the same reasoning.

No vaccine.
Vitamin supplements instead.

Categorized as high risk.

PS: In re our early cases of Covid19: we immediately started a course of Azithromycin and zinc. Although we did not know about its later reports of efficacy on Covid19, we keep Z-Paks in stock (my lady, who is now retired from a 45 years as an RN, buys them from an off-shore pharmacy because she has a tendency have bacterial bronchial infections which can go into pneumonia that can lay her low if she gets a cold). We always complete the entire course. That’s most likely why our covid cases were mild and short.

My dental office also kept a supply in stock also. Heck, I did the ordering and a Z-Pak cost us only $1.25 for a full course of treatment.

Still spreading false information I see.

You should be ashamed and embarrassed.

Uh, no, it’s not strictly false. I just spoke to my daughter who works for UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. She stated unequivocally that none of the so-called “vaccines” will actually prevent anyone from getting Covid19. That’s why they are claiming those who get these “vaccines” still have to social distance and wear masks.

They will reduce the severity of the effects when or if you get it, and prevent the Corona virus from easily penetrating the cell walls to replicate themselves, and prevent an infected person from spreading anything. They WILL reduce the mortality rate to almost nil when and if you get it.

According to my daughter, the doctors at US Davis are preferring to get the J&J vaccine because it drastically reduces the severity of the actual illness and has a 74% efficacy at actually preventing you from getting it AND it is not a mRNA treatment modality.

Not worth the risk and can be fought with suppliment Vit D3! Zinc, vit C, Magnesium. Will never get a vaccine, and neither will my family. Oh by the way, it may only last 6 months. Just not worth it.

Unlike the other vaccines which are given in the arm, to receive the johnson and johnson you need to drop your drawers

Your injection person was a pervert. I got my J&J in my upper arm. Someone wanted to look at your butt. ROTFLMAO!

Finally, someone with my story: Had the Swine flu vaccine years ago and was never so sick, for a couple months afterward. Could barely stand up, etc. Never another flu shot since and that was late 60s. I also do believe the Wuhan flu was politically weaponized from the get go and that breaks my heart for all the issues that has caused since early 2020. We do use caution in crowds, shopping, etc. but prefer to not live in daily fear.

“You gota be kidding....what makes you think you know all there is to know about it....what arrogance!!!”

You don’t have the skills, knowledge, training, education, or experience to have made such a decision for yourself. The propaganda is heavy on this drama bug covid garbage. There is no way you are going to convince anyone that YOU made the decisions.

The arrogance is on YOU!

You obviously haven’t been keeping up.
Harvard and MIT researchers, have been quoted by a PhD biochemist on another thread, in finding DNA altered by the mRNA of some of the jabs, in both cultured cell isolates, and in cells taken from jab recipients.

“The more that opt for the vaccines, the more pressure to end the masking and the social distancing”.

That’s my perception of how things are unfolding here in Houston. A great example is the Astros games where masks are “required” by MLB but we can clearly see on TV people are not complying - and no one is making them. I am cheering them on!
