It comes down to the fact that odds are getting stacked against me!



On the local news here in LA, a doctor at one of the hospitals treating Covid patients was interviewed about the whopping big increases in Delta variant cases and deaths in LA County; he cited the number of cases and deaths in a particular hospital as compared to just a few weeks ago and finished by stating the number of persons currently hospitalized for adverse Covid vaccination reactions and the number of deaths from Covid vaccination reactions was the same: zero...

I figure I better take the shots before the Lambda Lambda Lambda variant comes around!

I now have my two shots of Pfizer. I'm disappointed. I thought there would be ice and a little umbrella. What a rip.

You were obviously expecting the wrong kind of shots; besides, all the shots I've known are straight up in a shot glass; one shudders to think of the kind of places you patronize where they come with "ice and a little umbrella"... ...

Last week I got another call from my doc's office, saying they want to give me the second jab another couple of days earlier, so the date got moved forward a bit for the second time, two or three days more. Next Tuesday it is now, 8 days earlier than originally announced, and 4 weeks and 1 day after the first shot. Its then almost August, and last year I estimated that I would not get full vaccination before early autumn. Well, almost precise estimation, one month early only. I want a prize!

Keep on mind guys, you do alter probabilities to not suffer a serious case in your favour. It does not mean you do not get infected. Although that chance also is a bit smaller then, and you may carry less virusses and for shorter time, which makes you a bit less infectous for other people as well. All this said with Delta on mind.

Ah no. If it were a Canadian thing there would be no glasses involved.

Some scientific 'experts' are now saying the UK could enter into a national lockdown within a month.

Took 15 minutes waiting until I was injected. Then the 15 minute wait before I could leave.
At the end of the 15 minute wait the Lady asked me if I felt OK.
I asked her where the restroom was and her eyes got big.
"Why? Are you feeling ill?"
I answered
"No. I've been screwed around for 30 minutes now and I had to pee when I came in!"
