They poked my arm. It didn't bleed this time, which is a plus.

Was supposed to get mine today but they fucked up and overbooked, apparently they were sent fewer vaccines but still allowed more appointments, much like an airline

Cool guys, not like we're still in a pandemic or anything

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Damn, that sucks. Hoping you can get in soon

[-] Grebgreb@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Mine was scheduled today but got canceled for no specified reason. The only accessible cvs doesn't even appear as an option on their site throughout the next month.

[-] panopticon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Wtf is going on, it's honestly insane

[-] Blep@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

I can't get mine until October sadness

[-] dannoffs 9 points 1 year ago

Same. I just went to schedule mine and the frst open slot is October 20th

I just show up to places occasionally and get a booster. I don't know why and they don't either.

[-] Shinhoshi@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

You have to boost that 5G signal for Soros /s

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Oh no! I'm sorry.

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

Getting my booster later today.

It didn't bleed

The clotting has already started 😔

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

I should have listened to all of those morons online! Now I'm just one big blood clot

Thanks comrade!

[-] AlpineSteakHouse@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Getting mine today.

I just hope all the times I've gotten covid haven't irreversibly destroyed my brain.

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

I'm almost certain I had it back in February 2020. I was in bed for a whole week and could barely breathe. I for sure had it in 2022. Was happy to make it 2 years.

Hoping your brain is at least okay enough though!

Its time to join the vaccine injury grift. jk JK. How are you feeling? I kind of want to wait for Novavax. supposedly it hurts less :(

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Oh hell yeah. I've now got the shakes and my 5G reception is out of this world!

I'm feeling perfectly fine. No issues aside from the localized arm pain. I usually don't see side effects from vaccine injections until the next day, so I might feel a bit different tomorrow morning. I can't imagine it would be anywhere near as bad as I felt when I actually had COVID though.

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Yep the shot itself didn't hurt me at all. There was some soreness on my arm the next day, but now, 2 days later, that soreness is gone

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

In the last 2 hours the soreness has gotten measurably worse. Not anything more than I had expected though.

How much did they charge you?

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago
[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Not American or good insurance?

[-] Orcocracy@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

They make you pay for the vaccine in the US? Fuck's sake, no wonder there's all these new variants every year

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

American, on the tail end of my Medicaid coverage since getting benefits through work.

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I doubt anyone outside America has the new American vaccines yet

[-] GrumpigPoopBalls@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

I need to do this ASAP but I can't figure out if the pharmacies here have it yet and the information from the state doesn't do a lot to clear it up either

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The only pharmacies that have it so far in my state are CVS and Walgreens (the biggest pharmacies received the vaccine first).

https://cvs.com/vaccine/intake/store/schedule-options

https://walgreens.com/findcare/schedule-vaccine

CVS has been booked up, but Walgreens had lots of openings when I scheduled mine

Edit: List that shows the pharmacy chains most likely to get the vaccine next: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharmacies_in_the_United_States#Pharmacy_chains

[-] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Yep, I scheduled through my local Walgreens online.
