1. As a nurse caring for covid in a psych unit I saw patients

Get infected with covid, almost die, and months later get reinfected. Please vaccinate.

2. Thanks so much! It's amazing how many excuses there are for not getting a life saving vaccine

4. My youngest child was an election judge for the 2020 general

She counted 17 unmasked voter in the first hour. A week after the election she lost her sense of smell and sort of had a fever. She tested negative for Covid but we self isolated in my house and wore masks when were were out of our sleeping areas. I never showed any symptoms but my youngest had a major reaction to her second Moderna shot and ran a 104 degree fever until she took a cold bath and I got some ice packs. According to her doctor any what I read, my youngest may have had a mild case back after the election that caused her reaction to the vaccine to be so strong

I firmly believe that all persons should be vaccinated including persons who may have had COVID

5. Yikes! Kudos to her for doing the job doing these stressful times, I'm so sorry she got sick.

Though I did hear that many had reactions after getting the Moderna vaccine as opposed to the Pfizer. I also got the Moderna since that was the first one available to me - had to drive several miles downstate to get an appointment. And I definitely had a reaction, felt pretty awful that night and the next day, chills and felt so woozy that I didn't want to get out of bed. But it was over by the day after and I knew what caused it. And I do know someone else who had a fever after getting the Moderna.

And I certainly agree with you, I cannot understand "vaccine hesitant." No matter how miserable I felt for a couple of days, it was nothing compared to getting Covid.
