Just got me second shot. Awaiting the “Moderna 2 flu” that half my office has had this week.

So why not stop at one?

Pretty much everyone where I work got their second shot earlier in the week already and I would say its been like 1/3rd have zero side effects (or minor sore arm), 1/3rd have a headache, and 1/3rd have a fever so bad they take a sick day. Seems very luck of the draw.

Beats the hell out of actual COVID.

I mean, it's the immune system kicking in. That's the symptoms.

One doesn't trigger the immune system enough to develop full immunity. You *can* stop at one, but then you'll get COVID.

I get that

But she has issues from multiple sclerosis

She is ecstatic to get vaccinated but fearful of side effects and her body getting thrown off it’s pretty messed up state

I have a co-worker who elected for this. I spent five minutes trying to convince him of this. Then I called in our VP of Nursing and she spent five minutes trying to convince him of it as well. He still chose to cancel his second dose appointment because of his "risk/reward analysis". I threw a muscle in my eye socket from the eye rolling I did.

I mean, I would prefer not to get a fever for 24 hours too but it seems a small price to pay (even with MS) for the benefits. Like if you think the effects are bad, what the hell do you think having COVID is going to be like?

Well partial immunity is better than none. Moderna is 52% effective after one shot.

I can’t explain it any clearer dude.

They're predicting a March surge, when the much more contagious UK variant becomes dominant in the US.
