    Ill get my 2nd shot of Pfizer in about 2 weeks. Funny thing on 4/21 I took my daughter to the doctor because she coughed in class. School kicked her out and said she needs a note saying that its not Covid. Well it was Covid. She tested positive(she's 15) my wife and I had been around her the previous days, we made her basically stay in her room for the next 10 days. Neither of us caught it, we tested negative.

    I wasn't willing to take the chance of getting it a second time and getting so sick I ended up in the hospital or worse.
    I know a couple of people who had it twice and one guy who had it three freaking times. The ones I know who had it a second time got so sick they thought they were goners. With me having asthma I wasn't willing to chance it.

    I finally decided to get this shot the other day and today scheduled to get it at the VA hospital on the 18th. It's my understanding this shot will be the single one. I have generally avoided ALL debates about COVID and these shots and will continue to do so. HOWEVER, I am getting this shot, but not happy about any of it.
     
    Trucker61016 and Rideandrepair Thank this.
