I was asked by several Freepers to post a thread once I have received my Pfizer Corona Virus Vaccine. As many of you know, I am a critical care physician in a large city environment. We have been having a surge for the last several weeks.
I received the Vaccine this morning at 7:56 AM. I was the third physician outside of the large academic center in town to receive the vaccine. Our hospital system had the vaccine released it first as we are the largest non-academic system in the city.
Prequel: I have been on experimental prophylaxis combination for health care workers since March. I have been taking part in a study sanctioned by an IRB and been administered a protocol of medications on a daily an weekly basis. In my practice, I currently have had well over 1500 encounters with CoVID patients in the hospital setting, have had responsibility for the surge CoVID unit in July, and now again this month. I have completed numerous airway interventions on CoVID patients and some how managed to never contract the virus.
My hospital system has genuinely taken exceptional care of its HCW and employees and I am lucky as we have never lacked for PPE, made significant reuses of PPE, and was actually provided a P100 mask fit for me by the hospital. All of my colleague received the same.
I was contacted by the system chief medical officer on Monday and the department chair on Tuesday that I was considered 1A in terms of priority as were roughly 18 of my physician colleagues. Critical care nurses and anyone in any of our critical care units were also contacted. I was told to arrive at 745 this AM.
EVENT: I arrived and underwent a very streamlined check in process, gave written informed consent that was not unusual in any way. Acknowledged that this was a vaccine being administered under EUA conditions. The media was out in force as this was the first private hospital as previously said that was inoculating its staff.
I was called third stepped up and underwent the most routine of injections. The vaccination was administered into my left deltoid, a quantity of approximately 0.3 cc on a 30 g needle. To say I felt nothing would be absolutely true. There was absolutely pain. I was asked to wait in an observed seating area for 20 minutes after my vaccine and then released.
Over the course of the day, I have developed very mild muscle pain in the left arm. It is not at all limiting in anyway. I have had no other symptoms. We were told that approximately 6% of patients develop very low grade symptoms.
I was given my CDC vaccination card and read every word of it. It states that this card is an record of administration, the lot number, date and time of vaccine was recorded. It says to please present this card to my primary care provider at my net appointment for addition to my medical record. There is absolutely nothing on this card that says or implies that I should maintain it on my person. as a record.
I was scheduled for follow up booster in 19 - 21 days. When I left, I cannot quantify the wave of relief and genuine happiness that I had. I was reflecting that in 7 days, I would not longer have to personally worry about this disease causing a tragic outcome in me personally. I also was overjoyed that the means in 7 - 10 days I will no longer be a threat to my family, my elderly parents, and I won't have to get any further CoVID tests.
Like as been said in the media and by President Trump and Pence. There is light at the end of the tunnel, and there is hope that this is the beginning of the end. I genuinely felt that and continue to feel it. As I have said before, this represents the Manhattan project of the 21st century. I am proud to be a recipient of this vaccine, and grateful for the President who made this happen in 10 months. They said it couldn't happen. They were wrong. I will continue to update how I feel, and the next round in early January
To all Freepers out there -- be well, stay safe and Merry Christmas.
I will be delighted to let people know how I am doing. As for contraindications the informed consent asked if I had ever had a severe reaction to any other vaccination. I believe this is an absolute contraindication. I am lucky as I have never had a severe reaction to anything in particular. The main concern is anaphylaxis and anaphylactoid reactions.
I would check with your physician and ask that question prior to vaccination.
I have heard warnings from medical professionals that one of the concerns is over-reactions to future exposures to things like the common cold or traditional flu... or even to the actual corona virus, due to some kind of psytochime (sp?) Storm.
Apparently this was a problem in previous animal trial challenge studies for similar technologies in the past.

My question is this... If something like this happens to you, or you see it happen with others, will you use this forum to keep us updated on it?
Looking forward to your updates on this. š
Bkmrk.
Thanks for your feedback.
Good luck and keep us posted.
Thank you for posting your experiance. Blessings to you and yours.
Never mind. I see it now. You said Pfizer.
I am reading in low light outside on tiny cellphone, laf.
“All that will happen is the vector will randomly find several cells and release the mRNA that codes for spike protein antibodies into the cellular cytosol (DNA is in the nucleus, this cannot access the nucleus) and eventually hit upon the ribosomes, and dump out antibodies to C-19 spike protein which is the Achilles heel of this virus.”
What is “the vector”?
Because Fauci as jumped the shark and demonstrated that he is a total idiot. I think he is drunk with power, and this will rapidly end the pandemic should we as freedom loving Americans stand up.
As for the scientific reasons why I believe this: Vaccination confers immunity which means you dont get the disease. How can you spread what you dont have? Additionally, there is now a large body of evidence demonstrating that asymptomatic spread is minimal.
Sadly, Fauci has not treated a patient nor practiced medicine in over two decades. As such, he is nothing more than a politician with a title.
Have you ever been checked for antibodies?
If you might have had Covid-19 earlier on, can you still get the vaccine without an issue? Or if one clearly had it, vaccine still ok?
Dr. Benjamin Chan, the state epidemiologist for New Hampshire was interviewed on WMUR-TV yesterday. He stated that the Pfizer vaccine was administered at room temperature.
Great report. Thank you for posting. I have no doubt in my mind that if I were in a high-risk situation to catch Covid as you are, that I would also be vaccinated.
But Iām not. I work at home. I live 20 miles from a town with a population of 900. I very rarely go out.
For now I will stay happily unvaccinated.
Thanks for the first hand report. And thank you for all you’ve done this year.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
Lots of great questions:
1. As stated in a above response, I am not really all that comfortable disclosing the protocol as there was some pretty crappy posts and threats leveled at me publicly on this forum and privately in Freepmail when I share this. Like I said, it was a combination of vitamins, minerals and possible Rx medications
2. I am receiving two full dose vaccines. As you elucidated down your thread the second full dose seems to be the one that drives deep and T-cell immunity.
3. Yes I was thrilled to find out that after 7 - 10 days there is 95% immunity. It makes sense given what we see in wild type disease. Namely, that there is a brief period of antibodies, then T-cell immunity. I am pretty convinced that the early immunity is probably because of antibody stimulation.
4. I suspect that if you had the disease and where in the incubation period and were vaccinated, that you could probably spread the disease. Otherwise, it would not make sense to be that you could be a carrier with this disease.
Of course, I have nothing to hide.
Thanks for posting. Good for you. Have a Merry Christmas.
Sorry — the vector is the delivery system. In this case I think it is an inert bacterial cell but I would be wrong.
That’s why I asked.
What is your response to that video link?
Thank you for sharing your experience.
