    I've had it and I've also had both my shots - I'm still alive! I did have nasty side effects from the first jab, and much, much less from the second - but Herself (who gave Covid to me in the first place) had no side effects at all from either. While there are risks associated with any vaccine, they are pretty small and the number of serious effects from the virus are very very low (especially compared with the number from the virus itself). I'd say "go for it" - if only to be sure that you can't easily get it and pass it to other, more vulnerable people. If nothing else, pretty soon you will need to be able to prove you are vaccinated to go shopping, let alone to a bar, or a new job ... :laugh:

    This is exactly how returning to office is shaping up (unofficially) with my current employer.

      It was my understanding that HIPAA made it illegal for an employer to enquire about your medical status. Of course HIPAA is US-centric, but given how other countries are even more restrictive than the US, I would imagine there are equivalents elsewhere... But then, these are unusual circumstances. And I find it interesting how laws are thrown out the window the instant we find ourselves under said circumstances.

        doctor's here in the States do not want you getting a vaccine shot until 90 days out from last good test if you have been hospitalized with COVID-19 (as my close friend was, almost died). -- now that is worse case scenario (aside from death). What I recommend you do is consult a professional doctor (not a nurse, not a friend, not a family member, not the internet, not a wanna-be covid expert), but an MD and explain your situation and get their recommendation. my 2 cents.

        Don't put all doctors on a pedestal. Don't forget that there are s****y, opinionated people in every profession. I'm not suggesting "consulting the internet" is any better. I just generally object to such blanket statements.

          That is the most convincing argument for not having the jab I have yet heard ... :-D

            Does any one here know or have some information about how safe it is to get the Covid-19 shots if one has unknowingly been exposed to the virus without any severe complications. I want to go for the vaccine but I'm not certain if I have had the virus or not & I have idea how safe that would be.

            I have been volunteering in the vaccination centre in my home town, and this is one of the top 3 questions. Having had COVID counts as a vaccine shot. People who were exposed to the virus get only one shot instead of two in France. In any case, do not be afraid of anything, a doctor or a nurse will ask you the correct questions before giving you the shot to avoid any risky situation.

              I had the virus (a mild case) and 6 months later the shots. No real adverse reaction aside from some fatigue.

                  ANECDOTAL... I've received my 2nd shot yesterday. (1st one was Astra Zeneca, 2nd was Moderna). No issues or side effects yet (other than arm hurting and some fatigue).

                      I'm having a slight problem with that statement. First, how do you know if a doc doesn't know? I really wouldn't know that they don't know. Secondly, If you allow me to use an analogy, there are plenty of quite brilliant older programmers that perhaps doesn't have a clue about Linq for example, but they're still quite able to solve the problem in front of them. Hmm, that's perhaps not the best analogy, but I hope you get my drift.

                          I think a person has much bigger problems in their life, if they don't trust their primary care doctor. I also think a person has even bigger problems in their life if they don't have a primary care doctor.

                                Then you definitely want to post it to devenv.exe - it was him who made that assertion, not me.

                                  The vaccine protect acquiring disease SARS on severe form and also cut the chain and reduce the infection. It is highly recommended put only one dosis of Pfizer vaccine because reduce complications in the future. Anyway the coronavirus cure with clorures. If you ingest regulary bottle water or tap water both contain Cl you dont might have problems of infection.

                                    I read that 95% of everything on the internet is biased and/or twisted from the truth for some political agenda. The other 5% is outright lies. ...of course, I read that on the internet!
