Does anyone believe the implementation here in the USA will go as smoothly as OP describes? Especially here in The Villages where the majority of the population will be seeking the vaccine.

For a first day mass programme roll out, all was well run. We were given a time for our injections, (5pm.) and told to arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before.
Report, fill in forms, sign to agree to injection, then after another short wait, vaccinated, and all within (bar 7 minutes) of our alloted time.
Most impressed.
You then went too a monitoring area for a 15 minute wait in case of any immediate reaction, which there wasn't, so drove home. Never saw anyone have reaction.

5 hours after my injection I started to get a cold sweat, and had a complete loss of nearly all my energy. Went to bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Feel fine this morning, but still a little lethargic, but no other symtoms, so not a problem.
No other reactions, no lumps or inflamation around injection site.

Wife has had no reaction whatsoever, which was to be expected, as no vaccine or virus in its right mind, would have the balls to upset her in the first place!:icon_wink:

21 days to booster jab, then after 7 more days, we should have the 90-95% immunity. 28 days in total from first jab.

After nursing homes, carers etc. us over 80's are the first in line, with the age groups working down, plus those with degrees of vulnerability, but with a UK population of over 68,000,000 it is a really major operation!

Keep well.

Bill, can you tell me your age please. I hear more reactions with older people

So glad for you guys! And nice to know what to really expect from vaccination, no manipulative twisting etc by the media. You and your wife were brave to get the vaccine. Whatever people say, it takes guts. So 28 days and then.... freedom! To do whatever you want to again. Can’t wait till hubby and I get the same chance.

I dont think it's 28 days then freedom...I understand it to be 28days(then 7 days waiting) and then You will be safe but you can still get the germ,carry the germ,share the germ... but not get sick from the germ..... so still mask up and social dist ance... for awhile... this is what Fauci is saying .
