Dear Pharma company execs:
i hate you for your big-pharma profit off your new wonder drugs and your penchant for feeding us shareholders and 401K / RRSP sheep like me and my pension-blind worker buddies—but hey, it’s common ground for us simpletons to slag big pharma over beers, even though we actually own your ass collectively but revel in our complete inability to accept our role in perpetuating your success motive. Ya, we love/hate you already, and if you save our lives with your record-breaking expedient vaccine, fear not as we will twist your amazing life-saving mission into something evil and socially repugnant. You go Pfizer! (Thoight I’d never say that)

You can get the test at Life Labs, it costs 75 bucks. From what we're being told, you'd still need a booster shot this fall.
I was lucky enough to be at the pharmacy inquiring about a repeat prescription when they said they had a cancellation, so I got the Astra Zeneca shot. I haven't grown a second head yet!!
It's been a week.....if I was going to have side effects they would have showed up by now...nothing has.
Dr Bunny foo foo says you’ll be fine..... I somehow doubt it....get ready for a 3rd...4th...5th...ect ect ect
FYI, the Astra Zeneca vaccine is now available to 40+ age group. Book your appointment here:

Try calling those pharmacies without booking forms and you might get one in ASAP. Some people from reddit got vaxxed within 1 hour of the announcement.

Called yesterday, got my shot this morning, no line up, walked in, and done in 2 minutes. Small town living has its perks. She booked me to come back June 1, for my second shot, I didn't ask, she took it upon herself to offer.
Got mine through work today, Pfizer shot. Pretty quick process. Definitely got nauseous a couple hours later but dunno if that was more the heat or the shot.
I got mine (Pfizer) 16 days ago and had just a small feeling that my muscle had been traumatized by the needle, but really only if I felt for the injection spot on my arm.
Virtually no physical problems at all and I'm 75 years old.
Only weird thing is that two days ago I had an insatiable urge to buy a new computer loaded with Microsoft programs from Amazon, which I'll be able to pick-up in my new Tesla as soon as it arrives.
Apparently I ordered one Tuesday evening.
But I'm fine.
Later.
