Pretty ironic coming from this douchebag. Love the responses though in the article
I've never been the type that's prone to throwing up when sick. For me storms usually happen south of the equator. But on Sunday things were so volatile I could have put out a camp fire with what was coming out the back side.Don't know if this is true but I have heard that the more severe response is an indication the your immune system is building a strong resistance to the virus.

Do you know why they have to say that? AFAIK symptom that had even the slightest connection is required by law to be part of that advertisement. And aren't most of those medicines long term usage? That's a lot different than one or two doses.I watched a little TV this evening, and there were several commercials for drugs for all sorts of conditions. One thing they had in common was a long list of disclaimers, like "may cause incontinence, depression, anxiety, insomnia, hysterical flatulence, skin rash, stomach upset, birth defects, brain cancer, indigestion, and loss of vision".
Ok, maybe not some of those extremes, but these are medications that have been through extensive testing for short-term and long-term effects, and have identifiable side effects. They are fully approved by the FDA, after long trial periods, among many different populations. They have been tested with the young and old, and in between. They have been tested across races, and against people with other underlying health conditions. They have been tested with the fertile and the pregnant.
They pimp their wares, and they COMPETE. They compete with alternative medicines as to which is the most efiicacious with the fewest or least likely side effects.
Now, we have three competing COVID vaccines. They are all experimental. None are fully FDA approved. Maybe I just haven't seen them, but I don't think there's a single commercial from Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson extolling the virtues of their product over their competitition. I would expect to see some advertising enticing me towards one, but there is none. Maybe because these companies are being fed and fueled by the US government, and they're going to profit regardless. WHY AREN'T THEY ADVERTISING THAT THEIR PRODUCT IS THE BEST PRODUCT?
Take your dose, guinea pig. When we figure out the side effects of this ineffectual drug trial, you can take solace in the fact that your sacrifice will allow other people to not repeat your mistakes.
At least the parents who had Thalidomide babies saved money on gloves and shoes.
Based on age. Pretty much any adult can get vaccinated. 16 and up can get certain vaccines. Depends on CDC approval.Can anyone currently get access to the vaccine in Indiana?
Or is it restricted to age groups, at risk people with comorbidities, certain professions etc?
Sorry to hear that! I got my first Pfizer dose and only had the ache in the arm for three days. My second appointment is next week.I've been hesitant to post an update because it's gross, but the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine jacked my stomach up real bad. About 24 hours in I started getting very tired and had a slight fever and chills. About 36 hours after getting the shot I got a case of severe gastrointestinal distress that ran steady for about 12 hours straight. I'll leave it at that.
Things have improved a little over the last 24 hours, but my stomach is still doing flip flops and sounds like a severe thunderstorm. The nausea, bloating and gas buildup is pretty bad still.
It has not been a fun four days.
Today's story was on vaccination problems in Africa. Notably Malawi was dumping expired vax because folks their panicked when the EU halted the AstroZenica rollout.Actually, yes, on NPR quite often. (I can hear Bug's eyes rolling)
Just this morning they had reporters in other countries checking in - got a good time to be in Brazil.
The other day it was about Germany.
Do you from if it requires parental consent if they are under 18?Based on age. Pretty much any adult can get vaccinated. 16 and up can get certain vaccines. Depends on CDC approval.
As to why aren't they (J&J, Modera, Pfizer) advertising? (A) Why bother? Demand is unlimited. (B) The FDA controls what can and can't be advertised. I gotta imagine something with special authorization isn't going to get an OK for advertising.
