My husband, two kids (20’s) and I all got Pfizer. My husband only had sore arm for a few days, I had sore arm and minor headache and body aches the next morning. Advil kicked all symptoms in an hour. My son only had sore arm and my daughter was a little achy the next day. Since Moderna is also MRNA I assume symptoms are similar. J&J great due to only one jab, but efficacy a little lower. Also might avoid it if you have history of blood clots, but that’s probably overly cautious. Good luck and good for you looking out for your loved ones! That’s why I got vaccinated, too. My mother is very high risk. I’ve always been very cautious about vaccines and their ingredients since my daughter had a serious reaction when she was a baby.

 
@Ayyy7393 I got what was available, CoronaVac from sinovac, many people in my country got that one, the rest got either Pfizer or AstraZeneca. I know the Pfizer one has a little bit more side effects compared to Moderna or J&J but still we're talking about a day or two with muscle soreness and fatigue, nothing much to consider imo. As for efficacies, and this is just my opinion, if you're a relatively young (under 45) person with reasonably good health, I don't think you should be trying to get the best vaccine, I'm 29 and I got the ''worst'' one cause I just felt it would be wasted on me. All the vaccines are near 100 o 100% effective in preventing hospitalizations, so it's safe to say after being vaccinated with any of them, if you get Covid the worst case scenario is you get infected and it presents as a bad flu, a few days in bed taking tylenol. However once you factor in the age related risk, for someone like me, even if we do get infected, in all likelyhood I won't even notice. But someone in their 60s, 70s, they may get a bad case, and it still would be a lot worse for them, so again, just my opinion, if you're young and healthy, take whatever you get, it doesn't really matter for you.

I totally didn't forget the question and just kept writing... but back to it

Now for your parents, I'd say Moderna, then Pfizer, then J&J, unless one of them has mobility issues or they are at a very high risk of getting infected, then the J&J. You can always get a second vaccine if you want to but personally for older people getting protection now instead of in 2 months is worst considering. Imagine you go through all that trouble to get them moderna or pfizer and they get infected in the month between jabs, that would, using the technical term, fucking suck ass. Just know all 3 are going to protect them from severe Covid, and all 3 will more than likely protect them agains all Covid. The one thing you might want to consider is the adenovirus in the J&J vaccine. Blood clots cases aside, cause there are not enough to justiny not taking the vaccine, some immunosupresed people could in theory have a reaction to the virus, so if one of your parents have cancer or any condition suppressing the immune system, then I would prefer the Moderna. The Pfizer is almos the same as the moderna, it just hits people a little bit harder, so between those 2 I'd pick the Moderna.

But again, the main message here is whatever they get it's great. The risks are still very, very small, the difference in efficacy is mostly that with J&J they would have a marginally higher chance of presenting mild symptoms if infected, that's it. If that's all there's available it's ok, they should get it. But if you have all 3 available and you can choose, probably Moderna, then Pfizer, then J&J. If you'd have to wait to get the moderna or pfizer, then the J&J, that's most important thing, the sooner the better, no matter the vaccine.

Getting phizer today, should i be concerned? 

 
@Ayyy7393 Nah, at most you might need some tylenol for the next day or two. Most likely scenario, no reaction. And also, with Pfizer most of the reactions happened after the second shot, the first shot tends to be uneventful.

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
