    Don't blame you.....be as careful as you can...maybe pfizer for you.

    Had my first jab this morning...no effects so far.

    My father died (75yo) from blood clotting in the brain and never had a history.
    If you are over 50 it is very binary here in AU: AZ or AntiVac.

    They don't have enough Pfizer, probably never will due to another bad decision of ScoMo and his experts and they don't even bother approving Moderna here.

    The worst offenders are the 18-40something year olds, who daily need to see every coffee shop in a 200 mile radius but for some reason it is not safe to give them AZ because a 49y/o died from it but 50 is fine.
    I never noticed any differences in my physiology when I turned 50.

    Another uprising issue I am predicting with all the Greek letter variants lately is that the efficacy of current vaccines my soon be questionable, with Delta now effecting children there seems to be some harsher mutations going on.
    RNA type vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) can be very easily modified and their production turnaround is quite quick unlike AZ, but our 'experts' chose to all bet on one horse.
    I remember calls last year to support local RNA type production that were stubborn stupidly ignored.
    It is always the same story: The biggest business is always in bed with our pollies, end of the story.
    Update: A deletion of features that work well and ain't broke but are deemed outdated in order to add things that are up to date and broken.
    Compatibility: A word soon to be deleted from our dictionaries as it is outdated.

    USA have administered almost 300million
    The answer is actually a simple one, and relates to the period of time between the doses.

    The AZ vaccine that was initially rolled out to the masses here has a 12 week period between the first and second shots.

    The program only began a little over 12 weeks ago, so those who had the first shot back then are now in the process of receiving their second shot. Nothing could make that process go quicker, and no one should have expected more people to be fully vaccinated sooner.

    Considering the above, and the time that has now passed, the number of ‘fully’ vaccinated people will now grow considerably.

    Couple that with the Pfizer vaccine, which is now being roller out to many more people, and which has only a 3 week period between doses, and the numbers will grow even further.

    From All accounts that I can see it appears that the sputnic is the only one with no big side effect problems except that the pollies dont want to acknowledge it talk about stupid ????

    Hi, I had my A-Z injection last Wednesday. No problem.
    According to my smartwatch I had a very good sleep,7 and a half hour. The next day my legs felt tired like I walked 10 km and back.
    Next morning,Sleep pattern 6.45 mins and today 5.45 mins.
    So it seems it relaxes you more. I feel fine now

    Had my first shot yesterday. Slept fine but feel a bit run down today...then again that's common for me....

    No definitely noticeable issues.

    Sputnik is based on human version adenovirus when A-Z on chimp's. Could it be the reason for blood cloth in some cases?

    Also, why would Western world accept Russian vaccine? That is not politically correct as Russia is the biggest evil on the planet.

    Both wife and I had the AZ this past Wednesday. No effects for me except a sore shoulder for a couple of days. Wife had a bad sleep with mild joint pain all over while in bed that night. I saw the size of the needle at the time and thought "f-ck, this will hurt", but didn't feel a thing.

    Common malady that doesn't result from an injection. It's a side effect of the gold on your left hand...

    Funny thing that gold on my left hand, I can remember when I got it and I can remember where I got it.
    For the life of me, I can’t remember why I got it. LOL

    Wife and I had our first jab 2 weeks ago of astra and I felt like I’d been hit by a truck and wife had the chills. Fine after 36 hours though. And I’ve never had a reaction to anything prior, I get the flu jab every year.
    Happy for round two.

    I'm waiting for them to develop the anal suppository method of introducing the vaccine to the body -- I see there's a bunch of researchers looking at a nasal spray method of deployment.
