My hubby and I received the J&J shot yesterday and I feel good. I have so far not had one reaction, not even a sore arm. I was so nervous about getting it and still am looking for some kind of reaction but so far nothing. It hasn’t been 24 hours until around 3 p.m.
I was in the hospital for a few days (not related to covid) and on discharge day they offered me the JNJ shot. I thought what the hell, I was a pincushion in the Army so I may as well.
Arm was sore for about a day and that was it.
I know one of the side effects will be to die within 6 months of your birthday.
Last March Ivermectin wasn’t something considered. Folks can go get an antibody test for $20 to see if they’ve had it.
I agree, the big and important reactions are a couple years down the road.
My wife and I have had both doses of the Pfizer vaccine. We had the last dose about three weeks ago. No reactions. Most of the folks in my neighborhood have been vaccinated. One person had the chills for about three hours.
Don’t listen to the anti-vaxxers. Go ahead and get the vaccine and then you can relax and quit worrying about the virus. Which vaccine? The one you can get the soonest.
Did I get the J&J vac? No.
For comparison, influenza has around 0.1% death rate, and that death rate is enough to compel governments all over the world to devote billions of dollars to influenza research. You can't really expect governments to ignore Covid-19 with its much higher death rate.
But, if the death rate doesn't bother you, consider this: around 1/3 of people who survive Covid-19 end up with long-term disabilities from heart, lung, neurological, and other organ damage. It is too early to tell yet whether they will fully recover, but the experience with SARS suggests that those long-term effects can last years.
US health agency will invest $1 billion to investigate ‘long COVID’
I got the J&J — no bad reaction
My doctor told me the antibodies fade after a few months. From what I’ve read the T-cells are what keeps immunity going. Its still a matter of debate how long the immunity lasts.
I got the vax mostly because I live in an area where mask use is followed by and mandated by most of the population. I want to get out of the mask hysteria without having to move.
Besides, I am more concerned about the long-term effect of everybody breathing through a mask than I am about contracting the disease myself. I live in a small town and the only real exposure I have to possible carriers is when I go into the local Walmart supercenter for our monthly shopping excursion.
I like the J&J one because it is old tech and I don’t trust the new RNA ones yet
I got the J&J also with no problems other than being unusually tired the next day.
After taking this simple T/F test:
Mid 50’s. Got the J&J shot about a month ago. Not even a sore arm.
It’s not a vaccine and the sooner people quit calling it that then maybe there will be a breakthrough on how bad we’ve been gaslighted.
Vaccines take years and years of clinical trials before they ever are offered to the public. This “vaccine “? Less than a year.
Ditto here. This short video is me doing my DAILY exercise after 2nd shot of Moderna vaccine. Sore arm lasted only 2 days. Felt like a cold was coming on the next day after 2nd shot, but no fever and no cold.

Yes (11 stents and a doctor BIL who is relentless). Body aches the first evening but nothing else
I plan on getting J&J when it is available. And when they get the issue of factory-level sabotage worked out.
