Anyone getting the vaccine will most likely be receiving it from a medical professional of some kind.

Even realizing how much some seem compelled to post about it here, no need, really, to get one's information elsewhere than from the medical professional administering it to you...

@stevieb, the problem is that this info is not on the CDC fact sheet which means it is not included in the questions the medical professionals are given to ask before giving it.  

---

@Icegoddess  One might suppose that by the time the vaccine is widely available to the general public the list of disclaimers will be updated. Until then and given that right now administration is primarily to medical personnel, anyone getting it more or less knows they're virtually a test subject.

I was wondering about this also.  If it goes to health care workers and those at high risk...elderly I am assuming plus other co-morbiities patients.  They are expanding the testing of the efficacy of these vaccines.  More general population won't get it until spring next yr... I think they are saying.

My friend had a kidney transplant about 8wks ago...wonder what her doctors will recommend for her?  She is on serious meds that suppress her immune system now.  

Also there are many autoimmune diseases...how do you decide if you should get this or any covid vaccine?  Yes I know talk to your doctor but still there isn't that much data out there on this so it is a educated "guess" at best?

No, there's a way to know what is best for *you* to do. Consult your Creator.

basically: 1 - make a decision one way or the other, 2 - pray on it and see how you feel, 3 - trust and be at peace

"credentials to give shots"?  I have no credentials and have given myself well over 100 shots. No, not insulin. A much bigger gauge syringe which contained Lovanox, which isn't a content you do not feel going in, and long after you inject it.

That aside, if you decide to get one of the vaccine shots, I am sure you can set up an appointment, with an LPN or RN to inject you.

I have not read all the responses and it might have been mentioned, this vaccination changes your DNA.

Won't that be a boon for criminals.  Get a vaccine and they can no longer link you to a crime.

Wonder what it will do to Ancestry's DNA cash cow.

@hckynut only if that RN or LPN is employed by one of the few places that have the -90 degree freezers used to store the vaccine.

Of note -

The COVID-19 vaccines do not change DNA 🧬.

Two of them alter RNA, not at all the same

They do not all require such drastic refrigeration.

No it doesn't! BBC and CDC have debunked this myth. I have no idea where people find this. Everyone needs to check things out before believing everything they read or hear.

@stevieb AMEN!!!   If my Dr. (who I trust) advises me to take the vaccine I will!  My sister died of Covid-19 in June and I wish this had been available for her to have had a chance to live a little longer!
