Will you get vaccinated against COVID once it's available?

Yes. I'm young and healthy, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't respect other people's right to remain healthy should I contract the virus and remain asymptomatic.

Greater good, folks.

I wasn't alive, but I don't think anyone hesitated to get the polio vaccine...

Unless I'm not remembering correctly what I saw on a PBS show about the polio vaccine a while ago, the problem wasn't with the vaccine but with the manufacturing of the vaccine at a specific facility. Instead of containing dead polio virus, it was made with live polio virus at one location. Shots of the vaccine made at any other facility did not create any problems. It was a manufacturing failure, not a vaccine failure.

I get my first shot tomorrow.

Was hoping to get it a long time ago but I wasn't fat enough to qualify for having 2 health problems. I am only in the lowest of 3 categories for being obese.LOL

Get my second shot next Monday.

I got my shots in January. After the first one, I had a little soreness in my arm, after the second, I felt like I got hit by a freight train for about a day. Then I slept like a log that night and was fine the next morning.
