I don't live in CA, but I'm getting my first one next week after my J&J had to be cancelled. Will feel very grateful to be fully vaccinated eventually.

@Greeneyedlady21 when your J & J got cancelled did you have to try to find another or was it done automatically for you? Just curious.

It was supposed to be at Walgreens. I cancelled it as soon as I saw the news about J&J being suspended. Luckily got a new appointment on my own at a nearby hospital run facility, took lots of trying.
Walgreens eventually sent me an email that day, said they would be trying to give replacement appointments with the other two vaccines-when they obtained supply.

Getting vaccinated is great. But don't let your guard down. You can still get covid, even if fully vaccinated.
You can get sick enough to land in the hospital and you can even die from it still---after being vaccinated.
In the small circle of people in my world, I never knew of anyone who had covid until 2 weeks ago.
Three people. All vaccinated well over a month ago.
A mother and son, son was sick first, next day mother was sick. Son diagnosed first, then mother. Mother was extremely ill. Did not go to the hospital, but is on antibiotics, and steriods and has to do breathing excersizes. Son did much better, he's in his mid 30's.
But a 3rd vaccinated person, thought he could take care of the mother, wore mask around her in her home and he is very sick now.
That scares me. I'm going to continue to wear a mask and social distance, even when with loved ones.

I still wear a mask and social distance in public settings but have some vaccinated people I trust. There will be a small percentage of people who get covid after being vaccinated but it probably will not lead to hospitalization. There are varients going around that may be resistant to the vaccine. That is why they are working on booster shots.

Believe me, @chessylady , I don't want to sound like a downer.
I'm not pointing fingers at your loved ones or anyone else's.

An article from CNN today regarding "breakthough" cases of Covid (meaning those who have been vacinnated: (the bolding is mine)
(CNN)About 5,800 people who have been vaccinated against coronavirus have become infected anyway, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tells CNN.

I am in Washington State and heard this morning that we had 271 cases of Covid in vaccinated people and 5 deaths.
