Also limited supply. They are reasonably getting it in arms at the speed it arrives in the country. I think 10M shots made it in and 7M are in arms so far. You have internal logistics and then almost every clinic sitting on a days to week supply to keep them going so I expect some lag.
My shot is scheduled for two weeks from now.
That’s where I booked. Booked Sunday, jabbed Tuesday. My wife just walked in and got hers.
Same... hopefully no side effects other then the hangover like symptoms you already expressed ?
Isn't there suppose to be a certain amount of days when you are suppose to get the second shot? Like you cannot wait too long for it.
Pfizer trials were done at 21 days, Moderna trials at 28 days. Being discussed in another thread. Nobody knows the optimum delay, they just tested for good enough. CDC say ~6 weeks ok. Other vaccines are happy with longer delays. Nobody knows for sure.
That's what i thought too. They couldn't give us an answer as to why so long.
The data I saw when they were making decisions for californias plan (January?) was something like first dose was 65% effective (at no symptoms, there were no hospitalizations reported after one shot) and the second dose took you up to 95%. As a public health measure, getting one shot in twice the people is far more effective. You limit the spread substantially and drastically drop the hospital beds required. I'm not sure if information further to that changes anything. If that is still true, as a public health measure, 2nd shots shouldn't start until all the first shots are in. Some exceptions for people highly exposed (eg ICU/LTC staff) makes sense to protect individuals (and by extension the viability of the healthcare system).
For those that like references see below. Kingston's main ICU is now full (30 beds). 17 of the patients were shipped in from Ontario Health East region (Ottawa?). They are expecting five more to be delivered tomorrow. They have 18 beds in a secondary ICU.

The problem is we don't know how long the first shot lasts. There's a possibility that it peaks at 65% and then sharply tapers off, disappearing within a month, without the boost from the second. This is something we need to know before making decisions.
Twice, so far.
Yeah, as I was packing up to head home yesterday afternoon, there were about 20 guys in the courtyard either playing games or exercising. I'm sure all the weights and bands etc. were well sanitized between users.also Kingston..

Well technically they are eligible now so they could. Not sure on their personal views whether they will sign up or wave pitchforks.
