Hoping for the best.
Thanks for the kind words. She's been sick with a bad cough, headaches, fatigue, high temp, etc. Feeling a little better now.

Dina and I just got the Pfizer shot. If anyone wants the 5G password, message me.
I got my 2nd Pfizer shot last Thursday. You might consider clearing your schedule the day after you get yours. I felt nauseous, achey, and feverish all day the next day. I have never experienced a reaction like that in my life. If you have a healthy immune system, you will likely feel the same.
My mom (60s) got it (She works at a hospital) and had the same side effects. As did one of my friends who's a nurse (30s).Quote:

I've heard that somewhere else, too. My mom is a teacher so she might be getting a vaccine pretty soon.Quote:

So did my mom, so here's hoping we're finally past the worst of it now, you know?Quote:

Love the "experts" that fear the vaccine was rushed.
In the summer, it was liberals that thought it would be way too rushed if it came out before December, and then in the winter it suddenly transitioned into conservatives. Not sure how that works, but that's my perception.
That sucks. Mistakes can happen I guess.Quote:

It depends on who is president, I suppose. Science shouldn't be based in politics but that's our reality these days.Quote:

I did Google it. Every result I saw said the vaccine is free only until the end of 2021, or "free during the pandemic."
Also, your dick-ish answer fails to acknowledge that many, many, MANY Americans don't have insurers for these charges to be redirected to.
I dont know where you got that info Meg but it's probably because we aren't in 2022 yet why it's free in 2021.
Naturally, you have a source for this, right? That you can link to.Quote:

Eg: If you walk into an emergency room or clinic for the vaccine, they might charge you for the visit, but the vaccine is still free.Quote:
Federal law is quite clear that patients should not have to pay for the vaccine and its administration. But there isn’t language that defines what counts as “vaccine administration,” and whether the visit fee makes the cut.
If you read this entire article, which goes into a helluva lot of detail, you'll notice it doesn't say anything about the government only covering the cost for a "limited time," unless you're taking a rather ungenerous view of emergency legislation. (But again, I assume you have a reliable, legitimate source for your claims.)
If you read up further on this, you'll find out free vaccinations includes the uninsured.
PS: There are ~300 million people in the United States. It will likely take the rest of the year to get 80-90% of them vaccinated (which is the point where we'd collectively have some sort of herd immunity.) Even the best faith reading of your post doesn't make logical sense.
Quit being such a prick for absolutely no reason, Irish. Jesus.
Healthline article says vaccine free "during the pandemic."
Literally the first result that came up when I googled "is the COVID vaccine free in America?"
