TVScout Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I got virtually zero side effects from both the Johnson & Johnson vaccine and the Moderna vaccine. Does that mean if I had been infected instead would I have had an asymptomatic case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was positive for Covid and had very mild side effects for both vaccine doses, and when I had Covid, I lost all taste and smell, and had 3-4 months of elevated heart rate, fatigue, and other symptoms before this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of COVID cases ranking the same as the population doesn’t need any. Except it does need context. CA, for example, is densely populated and therefore a small minority can wreck it for everyone when it comes to a contagious disease. What the mitigation method did was slow the spread, prevented our hospitals from being overwhelmed, and kept more people from dying. Hence why we have a lower death per capita than Florida and Texas, as well as a lot of other states. So yes while I would love zero cases, this is what we have right now. And yes, you’re wrong. Mitigation methods do work. Edited November 11, 2021 by Xenos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrenaline_Flux Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Well, if you want my unfiltered non-football related opinion (because what I posted in that other thread was strictly football-related) I'm really glad Dakota Dozier is vaccinated. Can only imagine how bad he'd be going through it right now if he wasn't. It's not often that potentially dying is good for someone's football career. It's a shame that he has so many selfish teammates who refused and continue to refuse to get the vaccine. Only increased the likelihood of him getting COVID despite taking precautions himself to keep himself protected. Hopefully what he's going through now doesn't affect him beyond time missed and being sick short-term. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Is this the place where we are allowed to talk about science without getting tattled on? @NudeTayne (jus' busting your chops) I, too, am glad that gentleman is vaccinated. Otherwise his likelihood of death from contracting Covid would be 20-40x greater. I am sure he is glad right now as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-done. I approve of this 100%: you're welcome to not get a vaccine and the consequence is not to participate in society with the rest of us.

mission27 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Look at what's happening in Europe right now. That will be the northeast US in about a month. Vaccine is great but this is going to be with us forever and we need to learn to live with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some occasions slightly older. Denmark and Sweden are doing it off the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 30 or under for males, as far as I know. They have a surplus of supply for the other vaccines, so they can afford to do that, I suppose. If Moderna was the only option- you can bet your bottom dollar they'd still be offering it to that population. Hard to say if the US will do it. Many European countries have been a bit more conservative with their vaccines. For example the UK just recently approved one dose of the mRNA vaccines for children aged 12-17 where as the US has had that for a few months now. I'd assume the FDA will continue to recommend Moderna for younger male adults since the benefits heavily outweigh the risks from COVID. @ramssuperbowl99may have a better answer, though.

JiffyJag Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) It would appear that my workplace fits the bill for the new OSHA guidelines, and thus news dropped about everyone needing to be vaccinated by 1/4 or they will be subject to weekly tests. Typically every news story posted on the “company headlines” page is filled with generic positive responses, but hoooo boy some angry folks have come out of the woodwork. The initial story has tons of comments demanding that the company “fight the mandate!” Etc, etc. Looks like it’s going to be a huge mess. Very convenient that we sell popcorn.
