Shot twice

Yep... took myself out of harms way... and got shot twice.

Twice in 4 weeks.

The moderna vaccine shot.
First shot... no reaction at all.


The second shot...
Day 1: no side effects except mild soreness in arm.
Day 2: Extremely tired, slept most of the day.
Day 3: Again extremely tired & sleepy
Day 4: Not as tired but upset stomach.
Day 5: Feeling more normal but somewhat achy.
Day 6: Back to normal. 

Feel better having gotten the vaccine verses being unprotected. 
Still going to wear mask in public, practice social distancing, 
Wash hands frequently,  and use hand sanitizer.
Still planning to limit public interactions. 
Still better to safe than sorry.

Was concerned about infection and recovery.
But mostly concerned of long term, rest of life health issues from covid complications particularly lungs/breathing. 

Shots in central Virginia were given without issues and the procedures used were very efficient. 

Arrived at appointment time (5 minutes early)...
Checked in at door, screened inside for information, 
and sitting at one of the nurses stations
right at my 9:30 appointment time to get the shot.
15 minutes wait for any reactions then out the door. 
Second shot same procedure but no wait reaction time.
In and out in 7 minutes total. 
Very pleased with their efficiency. 

Hope y'all do well with getting the shot.
Truly can't wait for all this to be over.
