That's all the helicopter mommies who are worried about their little
snowflakes getting sick have lots more problems. Throw them in the
contagion pot, let them get sick and build up some immunities, and life
will be better later on.

I got on the bandwagon when I started working in the schools in the late 1990s.
All those little germ factories pretty much guarantee you’ll get it or
something like it if you’re around them for any length of time. Seemed like
cheap insurance, and it was.
I would also say that working in an
I have personally not gotten the flu in many decades despite never having
been vaccinated. I decided about 6 years ago to stop pressing my luck, and
accepted a free vaccination at work and every year since.

You read the little book that comes with any drug, and among 'side

Then you look at the placebo group, and they had nausea too, sometimes

My mother-in-law got a vaccine the other day which is pretty weird, she's a
billing clerk in a doctor's office. Not exactly front line and she's retiring
at the end of the month. FIL is very high risk and I'd call their behaviors
pretty risky but...
Anyway she said she felt achy for a day or

Well, I tested it on me. I am not sure, but I think it made me feel crappy
for about a day and a half. This is the Pfizer one. Anyway I am glad that
is over, but not looking forward to the second dose. I guess the second one
will tell me whether it was the vaccine or just some other passing virus
I love it

GWN is scraping the dregs from the vials to gather a few more doses. Since it
is not easy to store, I guess they are hoping to service enough before the
thing goes off. There is also the trouble of not being able to get it to
