Thanks doc. My daughter is a critical care nurse.

Closely following.

Yes I have been checked for antibodies — they have been negative. Recalling that antibodies only exist in a narrow window of six weeks. Per our occupational health, having had the illness is not a contraindication to vaccination. If one considers being vaccinated after wild type illness, it simply becomes a booster.

And I truly support that to be your choice. All of medicine is a risk benefit odds calculation. I dont disagree that your risk is pretty low. Mine was excruciatingly high. I am convinced we as freedom loving Americans can back different choices, but I also believe very much so that we make the best choice for ourselves. The government can go pound sand on any other approach

“. To say I felt nothing would be absolutely true.”

I hardly felt my flu shot recently. Needles sure have improved.

Thank you for posting.

I’ll note your results, and others of which I hear. As an immunocompromised (on purpose) individual, I’m supposedly of a higher priority than the general population for the vaccine. On doctor’s orders, I keep up to date with annual flu and 5-year pneumonia vaccines. For me, respiratory illnesses can be more dangerous than to healthier people.

But this one was developed in a bit of a rush, and I’m generally not an early adopter anymore. I’d love for these vaccines to prove safe and efficacious among a wide, wide population before I, too, take it. Having a doctor of a conservative bent report on his experiences herewith is an important data point for me. If you are keeping a ping list for your vaccine reports, please add me. If not, perhaps you could start one.

Thanks again.

Good writeup.

The vaccine’s mRNA approach is elegant but it’s also kind of creepy in the way it induces your cells to produce the antibodies. I totally get that it doesn’t touch your DNA but it still has more of a “hacking the software” or “tinkering with the wiring” feel than a traditional vaccine does.

1. No.

2. It appears these vaccines are safer and more effective.

Sadly, I am somewhat computer stupid and cannot for the life of me figure out a ping list.

“Pfizer did not use fetal stem lines for development but did for testing.”

They did not use fetal stem cells for development.

They did not use fetal stem cells for testing.

I thought there was an indirect application which I why I didn’t categorically answer no.

“I do believe that there was some early research that may have used stem cells.”

Not for any COVID vaccines.

After I receive a shot in the arm/butt/deltoid, I am always sore from the shot, NOT the stuff in the shot.

Muscle soreness post-shot is not uncommon for me, just something to expect.

Couple days ago took a Whooping Cough shot before I go to meet my infant granddaughter for the first time. Mild muscle soreness followed. No biggie.
