Did the Covid shot make you cranky?

I can understand people’s distrust. I will not be surprised if in a few years they come out with all sorts of problems the vaccine has caused, most of which is most likely to be internet chit chat. I have a problem with parents not getting proven vaccines for their kids based on a bunch of crap they read that is untrue like autism.

This discussion seems to have made everyone cranky lately. It was interesting and educational for a while. Now, not so much.

The discussions are still interesting to me!

And the covid vaccines were very much tested.

Many people are astonished by the unprecedented speed of COVID vaccine testing.

The vaccine development process — for COVID and any vaccine —involves many layers of study, testing and review. According to The College of Physicians of Philadelphia, vaccines usually take an average of 10-15 years to create.

And yet, the COVID vaccines were developed in less than a year.

The vaccines for the novel coronavirus went through the same layers of review and testing as other vaccines. Due to the dire nature of the pandemic, certain barriers to development, related to funding and manufacturing, were removed.

To understand how this is possible, it is important to know how the vaccine development process typically works and how the COVID vaccine was created.

I agree. I’m pretty opinionated and it can be frustrating because I’m always right of course, but I do try to see other points of view. I often realize what I think, someone else is going to think the exact opposite, trust me I know, I have a 26 year old son.

I could go along with about 50% covid overcount- that at least has been proven in children in this study.

"The findings, which were published in the medical journal Hospital Pediatrics also found that 45% of children’s hospital admissions were not likely caused by coronavirus."

Study finds that hospitals may be overcounting how many kids are admitted for COVID-19

My wife once complained that, every time we get into an argument, I always think my opinion is right. If I didn't think my opinion was right, it wouldn't be my opinion!

I'm all in favor of opinions as long as people don't think they are reality.

Given my side effects and if I had to go back and do it again, i'd do it again. I track infectious disease for a living, so the past year and change has been pretty crazy for me. I've seen the effects, cooccurring diagnosis, associated procedures, etc studied over long term. I've had to track patients through the course of the illness. Lots of people say it's nothing, and some get a light version of it and think they're validated. but i've seen lives and families destroyed time after time by the thousands. It's just not fun. So when I got the call and said it was my turn, I went and took the wife. I've also been studying the vaccine and it's side effects from a clinical standpoint since late January. 6.8 million vaccinated, 6 died, but 6.8 million got covid, over 100k dead. It wasn't a hard decision for me.

And the vaccine isn't 100% effective. You can still get the virus, and transmit the virus, but it lessens the likelihood of you getting a severe case, or even a noticeable case. You want to take your chances, that's fine, but I don't understand people's need to rage against the vaccine, or masks.

IMO vaccines are like 'exposures' triggering the body's immune responses. (nothing like statins or steroides, not 'drugs') I suggest that there are three possible/likely such 'exposures', say up to one contact and two shots in either order. I also suggest that a difficult reaction to any of them are signs of of them challenging (hopefully bolstering) one's ability to cope with the others.

We're not all the same age, in the same state of health, or have the same genetics. That's where 'statistics' (however precise or not) take a 'bigger picture'. btw, AIDS, Zike, and Ebola weren't hoaxes and nobody is known to have been injected ith a microchip but Bigfoot. (It's how he eludes our scrutiny. )
