Thanks, I've heard the 2nd is sometimes worse, but at my age it's better than the virus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the 50 and over came out just days after the 55 and over. Both sets of our parents have already had their 1st shots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 I confirmed my shot on the 12th will be the Johnson & Johnson. So, only 1 shot for me. The wife said no to J&J and found a site with available times for Moderna a week later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One shot better than two in my book! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 After being on two waiting lists for just an appointment, I am now scheduled for next Wednesday. That’s the good news. Now the bad, I worried on page one about the supply chain! I can tell you I have had containers coming from China waiting outside of port for 2 weeks just to get in because of port congestion. Worse, raw materials are now threatening to shut us down! ABS (a common plastic) is now force majeure! The foam we use for insulation in the commercial refrigeration we build is now running empty. Good luck if you want to spray foam insulate your home! Just because we have vaccines, things are far from over and looking to get worse! Sorry for the downer, but this is the reality! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All are effective enough to get the job done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly a miracle of medical achievement that many people - Trump, Biden, Fauci, a whole lot of brilliant doctors - deserve credit for. Absolutely. So many moving parts. Great post.

IUFLA Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 So Texas won't require masks after 3/10...but many of the businesses like grocery stores and restaurants are keeping their own mandatory mask orders in place... Except HEB (THE Texas grocery store) who says it's "encouraged but not mandatory." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant forget the companies and the people working round the clock to get it out the door. The main reason for the advanced timeline. Whoever gets a vax in Indiana likely got one produced in Bloomington. Edited March 5, 2021 by mrflynn03 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People and businesses will still take appropriate precautions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were interviewing business owners in Texas on NPR this morning and the one I heard said they still have a mask policy and it’s on their door, but he was worried that this will embolden people and lead to more conflicts with his staff. Was concerned that people will try to flout their rule of “no shirt, no shoes, no mask, no service.” It’s funny how people don’t freak out about being asked to wear shoes or a shirt to enter a business, but a mask is beyond the pale for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what irritates me about people. A private business is a free enterprise. They have the right to set their own rules. Dont like it dont shop their. I value my freedom and respect others too. Why this is such a difficult concept for people I dont know. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always been curious as to why that 'no service' message does not include pants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
