I'll be doing more of these clinics. I understand and even appreciate the paranoia. I think it's good in fact. These are unprecedented times. We should all remain vigilant IMO.
I have had both Moderna injections. I am fine. I had dose #2 14 days ago. I have had no significant ill effects- a sore arm after dose 1 and some very minor body aches and chills after #2.
If there is an "event", it will occur at the site of manufacturing IMO. Like the Cutter incident with the Salk Vaccine. That was a live attenuated virus that wasn't fully attenuated though. there is no virus in this vaccine, be it live, dead, inactivated, attenuated or other. It's just the mRNA for the spike program. It's ingenious IMO. I think it will be a revolution in vaccine delivery and will actually decrease the possibility of future Cutter incidents because there is no actual virus. At least there better not be. If there is, we have a major incident.
and hopefully new vaccine development, not just for humans but all wildlife, particularly bats. A new mRNA vaccine can be assembled in days so the cost of vaccine development is getting cheap enough to fight viruses in wild animals before they make the jump. For animals there is less need for expensive FDA oversight and lengthy clinical trials.
A teaspoon of seawater also contains 50 million marine viruses, so these parasitic hijackers of biology are everywhere.
Have any of the folks that got vaccinated gotten exposed to the virus?
If so, what reaction occurred?
RC, I hate to be morbid but how are you doing? I think anecdotal information is invaluable.
I hope this years later post finds you well!
