Coronavirus

Um, less people are dying? Then again with 565,000 + dead, there are less people to die. I got my first last Friday. Arm sore for 3 days, poopy for 5 days. I guess it hasn't killed me yet, so what the heck. And didn't we used to get our dogs vaccinated and people innoculated? Man I'm gettin' old. Hey maybe those childhood shots worked. No polio, mumps, rubella, etc.

Son? Is that you?!

I made that joke already.

I was born in Scranton in 1961, so maybe? I am adopted. Ya never know.

I have been known to travel through time from time to time, when I have the time.

Y'all ain't helping me overcome my fear of needles long enough to get vaccinated.

It wouldn't be so bad if the needle didn't have a hook in it.

Yeah, the barbs are a bear when the pull the needle back out.

 

[Dirtman]

And there's two of them!

I can't even pretend to understand why they were barbed.

And there's two of them!

Accurate representation.

I think the barbs are the antennas? When the needle is pulled hard enough, they release automatically into the muscle tissue.

I've had both shots and felt a little under the weather for about a day each time. I got Moderna and the shots were given by some local firemen, it was quick, almost painless and didn't bleed either time Vaccines work, I have a small pox vaccination scar and my kids don't because it has been eradicated. I had measles, chicken pox, German measles, and mumps. Mumps sucked, by the way. My kids had shots and never had any of those diseases. If enough people refuse the shot, Covid will keep spreading and mutating and we'll find out our vaccination won't prevent the new strain. Get the shot, please.

To be honest the nasal swab to get tested is far worse than the shot...

I agree, it felt like she swabbed the underside of my skull.
