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 2 years ago

Damn, that sucks. Hoping you can get in soon

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

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

[–] envis10n@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

Oh no! I'm sorry.

The clotting has already started 😔

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

[–] AlpineSteakHouse@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Getting mine today.

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

[–] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years 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!

How much did they charge you?

Not American or good insurance?

[–] Orcocracy@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 2 years ago

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

[–] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I doubt anyone outside America has the new American vaccines yet

[–] GrumpigPoopBalls@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

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

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

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

[–] envis10n@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

Yep, I scheduled through my local Walgreens online.
