[Andrew Walker]

one small jab in the arm for a man; one giant jab in the arm of mankind

I assume you had the one which us ‘oldies’ are supposed to have? The one which is not recommended for the under 50’s. I need to go get my jabs! I haven’t even had the flu shot this year yet.

yep, had the one they give to the oldies and haven't had any side effects.
and yeah, it makes sense getting it if only cos it's the one thing that every league fan has in their power to protect the 2022 nrl season. you never know what's going to happen down the road and if most people are vaccinated the govt won bring in lockdowns or postpone the comp

Hopefully no side effects Zac. I’m getting tired of the media scare campaign reporting every single adverse case, yet failing to report the multiple far more who have vaccinated without side effects. It does get into your psyche.

yeah, there's a bit of scaremongering going on out there, esp on social media, but it's better that the media report each and every adverse reaction. the roll out won't work if there's no honesty in the process. but if you're over 50 your chance of getting a blood clot is about 1 in a million. and even then, if you get treatment for the clot early you should be alright

Well the husband and I are booked in to get the jab next week. Can’t say I’m looking forward to it. It’s not the needle I worry about but the side effects which come 24 hours after. I always come out with a big burning red lump at the injection site when I get the flu jab so kind of expect the same with this. Also I do agree with you Zac that it’s a good thing they’re reporting the adverse reactions. But they need to balance it out with the many more who don’t suffer from blood clotting. It scares people and if they want people vaccinated....well then again we’re talking about the sensationalist headline grabbing media aren’t we?

yeah, they need to get their reporting boots on. imp job.
have you tried a bag of frozen peas on the injection site? that can work. good luck!

Thank you fellow chookpenners for volunteering for the human trials of the covid vax. When the results after years of thorough testing give it the all-clear, then I'll get my jab.

Had such a lovely morning out in the sun today. So nice to go to the library again finally to wander around and take my time. The librarians were so happy to have everyone back inside. The students waiting outside with me were all very polite and friendly. Even the staff at Services NSW at Bondi Junction were very friendly considering how hard their jobs are. Everyone on the buses were happy and smiling because we can see each other's faces again.
