Vaccine Rollout - State starts out with an 'F' but much improved, Big Island gets B+
#56
So far, I've not been inclined to seriously consider getting vaccinated against the Covid bug.
I've relied on my usual, time proven:  keep away from others strategy.
Its always been the best way.

M'Lady is much more social than I.
She's a knee-jerk East Coast liberal, believes anything and everything she's told by those in power.
She's registering for her  Covid vaccination.

In over 10 years I've only had flu once, when she caught it in one of her social activities and brought it home as a gift for me.
I had my first flu shot ever after that to protect myself from her social needs.
Had another a few months ago to protect against "complicating factors" should I catch Covid.
Will be due for another in a few months.
I expect she will soon be bringing this one home too.

I've begun to seriously look at the Covid vaccine situation as it stands right now.
There are 3 vaccines available, with 2 more in the chute, still at least a short ways off from being made available.
The Pfizer-BioNTech  and the Moderna vaccines are mRNA vaccines.
The Johnson & Johnson is a viral vector type.
of those available now, I'm favoring the BioNTech for myself.
The AstraZeneca [whole virus] and Novavax [Protein subunit] are still in trial not much info available yet, but some speculation.
It seems the Novavax has had some testing in the UK and may be effective against, at least some of, the mutations beginning to show up.

My knowledge is still very limited, but I'm inclined to favor the Novavax.
Not sure if or when it may become available here.
I will begin to start watching this more closely.

They seem to be hiding info about what type[s] are being administered around here:  what and where?

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
