I have seen the measured response i.e. antibodies etc has been outstanding after 1 dose for those that have already had COVID. Better than the 2nd dose for those who have not had the virus.

From where? Do you have a study and can you link? Interested in this second statement. Because keep in mind, second doses in those not infected previously are 90%+ protected from covid infection. So the idea that one dose is better would be wild, I’m willing to bet it’s comparable to 2 doses instead of better than. But that’s just my brainstorming I’d love to see the data you’re referencing.

Jon, I saw/heard the information in the video I linked below. The information was discussed by Professor Shane Crotty who is a virologist and researcher at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology. The immunological response was measured via blood work but the studies have not yet been done on the efficacy. However, it certainly seems to me very encouraging that there is a high likelihood of one dose being very effective for those that already have had COVID (based on Shane Crotty's description of the measured response via blood work):



Dr. Crotty excels at explaining the vaccines in easy to understand terms for those like myself who do not have a medical background.

We are so close yet still pretty far from really rounding the corner and getting past this. I've gone on trips, even Disney for Halloween last year, I took the risk but protected the family best we could. Nobody got sick.

I'm of the belief that once we reach the point the vaccine availability that anyone can get it then we open up. Let the vaccinated people do as they please. Let unvaccinated people do as they please. The risks are known and either get the shot or don't.

Not sad at all I say live life to it’s fullest. If your scared go get your vaccine wear your mask etc. but as for me I’m not scared because this virus is nothing more then a government mind control tool to control the population. 2% fatality rate not worth being scared over in my opinion

I’m just saying Covid has not changed the way I live life or travel. And at the moment I do not intend on getting any vaccine. Now I’m glad it’s there for people that want it though. Good for y’all

It’s impressive you still think this in April 2021. When you say things like that you just sound dumb man. You’re the only one in this thread that floats conspiracy, almost to troll levels. It’s almost delusional. Does that not make you pause?

I don’t even care about people saying we need to open up, we most definitely do and I support it more every day since we have a vaccine now.

For every story I hear about people living life to the fullest because they’re not scared, I have dead family members (of patients) and dead patients to show it doesn’t always work out. But we’ll get through this, thanks to those who are vaccinated and taking MINIMUM precautions like wearing a mask.

How do we know you aren't a chicom spy trying to scare us away from the vaccine to kill off the western world? I saw a very lengthy YouTube video claiming this.

And I’m sorry for your lost. But like I say 2% fatality isn’t that a real star? Yes the # dead maybe huge and it’s sad. I wish not one person died from Covid. But I Trust God almighty! That’s why I’m not scared I don’t need no vaccine. Because Gods got me protected. Now I’m glad y’all have a vaccine to take if y’all want. Good luck to y’all

Lol it’s true I don’t Trust this vaccine because people have died from it. And I believe the vaccine is to depopulate the world. But with that said if y’all want the vaccine go take it. Don’t let me scare your from it.

I don't think you understand what 2% means.

Got my first Pfizer shot in Greensboro earlier today. Had to navigate the Greensboro Coliseum vaccine location in crutches since I badly sprained my ankle last night, which was a lot of fun, haha.

It’s been 30ish hours since my Pfizer shot and I haven’t noticed any symptoms except maybe fatigue last night/earlier today, but it’s hard to tell if that was the vaccine or from my fairly severe ankle sprain.

Shot 2 might be more fun, though. Seems like symptoms are more common with that one.

My only symptoms were shot #1 with a very sore arm for 3 to 4 days and possibly some weak legs the next morning. Nothing terrible.

Shot #2 for me was easier with just slight arm soreness for a day.

I had chills and fever with both Pfizer. But I also had prior covid.

Girlfriend just had 2nd dose of Moderna and she had body aches and headache, and swollen arm. (I said don’t blame me since I gave it to her )

It’s interesting to hear everyone’s experience. There’s no rule book on what to expect, as I’ve seen people with prior covid not react to either shot!

My twin brother had arm soreness and fatigue with first shot, so he’ll be a good twin study to see what happens with the second. We are both anticipating a decent reaction.
 
I'll finally get around to looking into getting scheduled to be vaccinated either early this week or after I come home from traveling this week (so, of course, the time I'll actually get it will most likely be later). It was likely to happen anyway, but the main thing that bothers me is the P1 variant.

Hopefully when I do, it'll just feel like I've been punched in the arm (when I had a flu shot in the fall last year, it actually ended up hurting some not long after that, but it wasn't a big deal).

My parents had Moderna and had limited to no symptoms after that. What's interesting is they're getting their second soon and apparently you can have more symptoms after the second one, and we're going traveling for my grandma's birthday the day after...

Edit: I'll be going to a Moderna vaccine clinic on April 20th. (it was just what I could schedule myself for)
