    So far every issue I have heard of with this vaccine is the same issue that can happen with just about every other vaccine.  You will still have to wear the mask anyways since you could still carry the virus and pass it on.  I would guess that I have done more damage to my body through exposure to chemicals and minerals at work that what this vaccine could do to me.  Already have a facial tick that doesnt ever completely go away that is probably some type of nerve damage do to chemical exposure (doctors suggestion a few years back after many visits and tests).  Short of a Hep-B vaccination about 11 years ago, I couldnt tell you the last time I had any type of vaccination.

    Once it is available wide spread I will probably get it.

    Prove to me with 150% certainty that the Covid vaccination does not interact in a negative manner with my chemo drugs. Can't do that? Then you know which part of my unwiped anatomy you can lick. You do what gives you a warm fuzzy feeling, and I'll do the same. I took the flu vax the same day I took my chemo and it kicked my butt sideways for two weeks, like that flu vax ALWAYS does to me. Try that with the aftereffects of the chemo as the cherry on top. You do you, and I'll do me, and don't presume to go pissing down the back of my neck and tell me it's raining. My sense of humor is getting nonexistent at this point,

    Cannot argue with that. The very first time I got the flu vax years ago, I did get sick. Now I get it every year and had the pneumonia shot last year. Never had a problem other than that first year. I hear getting the shingles vax really sucks. Get it on a Friday from what understand.

    I will most likely be mandated to get the vaccine for work, same as the flu vaccine. While I don't particularly like getting the flu vaccine, I have never had any major complications from it. My opinion of the COVID vaccine is the same.

    Sign me up!  I'd rather get the vaccine than later on down the road go through what I just went through by not getting it.  Yep pros and cons for sure, though for me the pros outweigh the cons!

    The shingles shot should just that area of your arm somewhat sore for a bit.

    Pros and cons have yet to be determined.

    Apparently they don't want our soldiers taking it. I wonder why?

    If I had to guess it would be due to a limited supply.

    My wife and I both got the shingle vax and the 2nd shot that goes with it last year. Other than a little sore spot on the shoulder neither one of us had any side effects. Hope yours is the same.

    When i worked for the airlines we had  3M gave a seminar  on what type of masks we should use when welding, painting, plating, working with solvents and chemicals etc, etc, The jest of it was if you can smell what your working with ,your mask isnt doing you any good, when asked about really bad stuff , we were told a self contained breathing supply or piped in air from an outside source usually with sealed headgear or suit.
