I will be having the vaccine, at least. that's what she told me, apparently at my age I'm just outside the danger zone.
I'll be the first in line. If you've ever been on Cell-Tech an FDA approved vaccine doesn't seem scary at all.
Since I had Covid-19 in August, I'm on the fence about getting vaccinated. I may wait and get tested for antibodies first. I'm pretty sure I'm far down the list anyway.

You would likely test negative for antibodies by now (for the antibodies they test), but be immune nonetheless. The cool thing about the vaccines is they mRNA types can be easily changed if the virus were to mutate substantially. It hasn’t yet, the few variations are close enough that reinfection is rare to nonexistent and cases of reinfection are likely test errors for one of the confirmed positive results.

[QUOTE=Cass40;1624314231]Do you have to take it every year or just once?[/QUOTE]
All currently in production except for one require two injections spaced out over a couple weeks. Should be good for years to decades provided that the virus doesn’t mutate enough that it requires a new specific vaccine.
Absolutely I'll take it. I had so many vaccinations in the military one more won't hurt. The flu put me in the hospital about 15 years ago, so I always get a flu shot now too.

Just lol at getting vaccines every 2 months and getting tested twice a week
This post is from a reputable member from another site, an off topic discussion which I thought you may find of interest.
There is much that troubles me about the Pfizer vaccine announcement and most of it stems from my experience of over 25 years working as a medical laboratory scientist. I fully understand the pressures involved in getting this drug to commercialisation but it concerns me. As far as I can ascertain (no paper has been released) Phase 3 trials have not concluded i.e. efficacy trials ... does it work?
We don't know what type of clinical trials were conducted (double blind, randomised double blind etc etc)
We don't know how the vaccine worked. Did it prevent infection with the coronavirus or did it prevent development of symptoms of the disease (Covid-19) How severe were the symptoms?
How severe were the Covid-19 symptoms in the placebo group?
We don't know if there were any or what were the side-effects of the vaccine
We have been told that the vaccine needs to be stored at minus 80deg, I presume this means in liquid nitrogen. How will the logistics of distribution work? Presumably people will have to get themselves to a vaccination centre. How will this work in poorer countries?
One of the greatest benefits of the Sabin vaccine has been the ease of distribution in poorer countries, the vaccine an be easily transported to remote populations in containers with regular freezer packs. Will it be a case of priority for the vaccine is given to the richer countries with well-established health infrastructure. In the past, children and adults have died from being inoculated with improperly stored vaccines.
I believe that all the Pfizer trials have been done on adults, will the vaccine be tested on children? When?
Pfizer is an enormous, reputable Pharma.
also -
The major problem is that if the vaccine doesn’t offer protection against the coronavirus, it means that someone given the vaccine will continue to shed the virus and thus continue to be capable of infecting others but will not develop the disease (COVID-19).

Viruses by biological definition, are not living things, so it doesn’t try to mutate per se. More a matter of chance. It’s unlikely the virus will be eradicated any time in the foreseeable future, if ever. However, when you have enough “dead end hosts”, people who are immune from previous infection or vaccine, it will decline to the point it won’t really matter. There’s just no way to expect to vaccinate everyone globally in any near-term time frame. Especially with the vaccines currently being produced. They will work fine in developed countries but will not be very easy to distribute in very rural areas here, and nearly impossible in 3rd world countries that lack the logistics and gear to keep the vaccine at -80 degrees. I’m sure eventually that could be figured out, but there wouldn’t be much money in it (3rd world countries can’t afford it) so probably not a high priority. Imo COVID will just become an endemic disease, but will be insignificant in terms of other causes of death. I don’t think it will be like the flu where they need to make revised guessed at recombinations of various strains for an annual vaccine. It would make the most sense after the numbers are brought down to have the vaccine (or booster based on years of study) to be given at a certain age like 50-60 etc.
Edit to add....To Lou1se post:
Vaccines work by priming your own immune system to fight the “infection” by recognizing the pathogen (similar to post infection immunity) So IMO the vaccine won’t allow people to become infected to the degree that they start shedding virus like people who are asymptotic but infectious currently. Usually the shedding process is occurring when the virus is at a high level of replication in the host. That shouldn’t happen if your immune system can recognize the pathogen and react. Your infection would be over before you built a high enough virus titer to shed virus and be infectious. You could still act as a carrier if clothing was contaminated with someone else’s infectious material and you came into contact with someone.
Interesting side note. I was watching a documentary series about the Challenger disaster last night and I caught one of them saying “you have to stay 6’ away from me, I’m in quarantine” this was real footage from the mid 80s making sure they don’t have a bunch of people in space with colds or the flu etc. it just caught my attention when it was mentioned. That $hit was criminal, there were engineers who absolutely knew there were problems and even spoke up before the launch [b] but it was rushed[/b] despite concerns and even poor launch conditions (temps well below what they based “acceptable” on).

Yes, this is how vaccines work!! It's not a magic bullet that offers perfect total protection forever for everyone. A group of people within the vaccinated population may contract the disease and become ill asymptomatically but as a population they'll be ill for a far shorter period than if they weren't vaccinated and shed less and transmit the disease less (lowers R number) so it's still "working" in that circumstance.

Most vaccines (with the exception of flu vaccines when they choose strains incorrectly) are pretty effective at reducing viral load in the vaccinated person to the extent any viral shedding is pretty limited. Basically when a virus enters a host cell, it takes over the cellular "machinery" to replicate itself (its genetic sequence of arranged proteins) over and over until eventually the cell dies and bursts (cellular lysis) and all of those viral progeny scatter and can infect other cells, some will be exhaled just by matter of chance / where they are on the lung tissue etc. This cycle repeats itself until the host dies or can generate an effective immune response to defeat the virus which also includes killing and consuming body cells infected by the virus. If you have an effective vaccine, or post infection immunity, the host can mount an effective "counter attack" more quickly which will help prevent viral loads from getting so high that shedding large quantities of virus is unlikely. It doesn't make it impossible, but greatly reduces it to the point it shouldn't be a major issue.
I haven't researched the vaccines too much but I know most of the US/Europe front runners require a lot of storage and handling care. Hopefully they can figure something out for a more stable way to store it. RNA is very fragile though so I'm guessing that is the reason for the extreme cold temps. Not sure if there would be a viable way to freeze dry those. I heard on the radio several of the manufactures had their current vaccine "figured out" within a week of the genome of the virus being determined which seems crazy. There is one that I am aware of that doesn't require the extreme temps but still needs specific storage conditions (as does the flu vaccine). They will be able to use many of them in remote and third world countries, it will just be expensive, time consuming and difficult. Like fly in large scale vaccinations, which really sucks if you have to use two doses spaced out...
I don't think there will be much to worry about with the safety of vaccine, and we will know pretty quickly in this age of rapid communication. Especially when they start dosing all the medical workers, elderly and military branches. I'd take it if I wasn't confident I already had the Rona. I would not want to be "first" regardless, but big pharma isn't going to intentionally put something out that will cut into their profits due to adverse reactions or an ineffective vaccine. There is way too much money on the table across the competing companies to screw this up. I am confused/concerned why Merck decided to sell their position in Moderna though. That just seems "off", but maybe they feel they made enough on that holding, or there are others in the running that seem like a better fit due to logistics or production...No idea - if I knew I'd be dumping money into it too lol.

One of the reasons it was developed 'so quickly' is that there had already been a ton of work on previous COVID strains - just like we're able to 'develop' new vaccines for flu each year... still agree with many of the comments here about the unusual speed with which it was developed, and on how they work.
I'm a front line worker in a hospital (service and deploy respiratory therapy machines). Have seen way than enough people on life support and vents and die and people being carted in a body bag in my hospital.

Ya there was some work on other coronaviruses specifically SARS and MERS that I'm sure helped. Those were never completed because SARS kind of went away just from source control, and little money to be made on MERS cause camels aren't walking around everywhere lol. The medical technology is pretty advanced, an there is little doubt in my mind many diseases could be eliminated but aren't just due to lack of profit margin developing the cure.

This. If it was the regular weakened virus injection like we have been doing vaccinations for centuries I may consider it, especially if it means I can go back to normal life.

My mom almost died of diphtheria, and she had a church friend who had been crippled by polio, so I'm all for vaccines.
This is a totally new type of vaccine, works on a different principle, and was rammed through all the testing and review process at warp speed. No long term effect studies. I think I'll sit this one out and watch what happens to those who get it, then take it from there.
What is it with "it modifies your DNA" or "don't want my RNA modified"
FFS... use Wikipedia people
Lookup what DNA is and where it's located in a cell. Lookup mRNA and ribosomes protein synthesis - and where that happens in cells.

About 30% IIRC of the human genome is old junk viral genetic material. A cool area of research is correcting genetic defects by using innocuous viruses as a tool to correct the genetic error. Basically use a virus that won’t make the person sick, to invade the cell, cleave a specific incorrect sequence of the genetic sequence and insert the corrected protein sequence. This was relatively new concept when I was in school in the late 90s, no idea where it stands currently....I’m not foil hatting suggesting that this is the intent of the vaccine, but using viral components to change human DNA is real, or at least theoretically possible.

Personally, I'm low priority. But as soon as it's my turn, absolutely.
While I am relatively healthy, why push the issue when a vaccine is available? On top of that, my mom is pushing 80 and a cancer survivor and my sister has an immune disorder which makes her especially vulnerable. The last thing I want to do is to be a carrier and give it to one or both of them.
In just 24 hours, the U.S. has broken every record set since the pandemic began 10 months ago, with more new infections, hospitalizations and deaths in a single day than ever before.

CDC to encourage 'Vaccinated for COVID-19' buttons
If there are "I Voted" stickers, why not "Vaccinated for COVID-19" buttons?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is planning to offer health care providers a template they can use to print buttons or stickers that would advertise a person's vaccination status. The idea is that the button would be handed out to patients after they receive their vaccination shots.
The effort is part of a "toolkit" that the CDC plans to provide healthcare systems to "educate and promote vaccination," a CDC spokesperson told ABC News.
Are u for real? I never bought Politics into the thread so why are you? This is the reason why USA is in this ****hole cos Covid has become an political affair with nayslayers.
I work in this field and here's a FACT.
SAR virus does not care about how much you squat or bench cos it's a foreign object for the body. When u get exposed, it's up to your immune system as to whether it will reject it or the virus will start metabolizing.
Are you one of those people living in mid West and think face masks violates your civil rights?
I've seen lean people in their 30s on RT machines (got better later but that's not the point). Lifting 300 lbs weights does not enhance your immune system. Your "bull" strength is totally irrelevant to Covid-19 and this is a fact.

Here’s Why Vaccinated People Still Need to Wear a Mask
The new vaccines will probably prevent you from getting sick with Covid. No one knows yet whether they will keep you from spreading the virus to others — but that information is coming.
The new Covid-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna seem to be remarkably good at preventing serious illness. But it’s unclear how well they will curb the spread of the coronavirus.
That’s because the Pfizer and Moderna trials tracked only how many vaccinated people became sick with Covid-19. That leaves open the possibility that some vaccinated people get infected without developing symptoms, and could then silently transmit the virus — especially if they come in close contact with others or stop wearing masks.
If vaccinated people are silent spreaders of the virus, they may keep it circulating in their communities, putting unvaccinated people at risk.
“A lot of people are thinking that once they get vaccinated, they’re not going to have to wear masks anymore,” said Michal Tal, an immunologist at Stanford University. “It’s really going to be critical for them to know if they have to keep wearing masks, because they could still be contagious.”

I'm a nice guy usually, but I admit I might have trouble holding back a guffaw or two if you get the 'rona.
You really don't understand how this whole reality thing works do you?
I'm new around here so I took my time, but yeah... you can't play any other role than the buffoon.
Sorry bro.[/QUOTE]

Sup Stumpy?
You can tell me yourself, of course you know I am more concerned with the spreading if the Virus rather than how it will affect me. Anything else is selfish imo.

But it’s not selfish to open a gym during this pandemic to allow and show people how to take personal responsibility of thier health. Imo closing the gym is selfish and acts of panic are imo selfish.
