I'm tempted to get 2.
Yea, one in each arm so it can evenly coat my immune system.
I want the new COVID shot but was worried my insurance wouldn't cover it because the new US policy says I'm not old enough to need it so it's up to each insurance if they want to cover it. And then I lost my job so hopefully get a new job and hopefully get hey pay for the shot or get insurance though ACA or access??? I'm all full of fun stress right now.
I've gotten every COVID shot available to the general public. I have not gotten COVID and only one cold since I still wear a mask since 2020. Give me all the vaccines!
Americans who said they will “probably” or “definitely” not get the shot were also more likely to say they think changes to U.S. vaccine policy are “major” and will make people less safe.
Pardon? Am I reading that right?
It means they probably want a COVID shot, but (thanks to RFK's changes to coverage) they either can't afford one or don't believe they can afford it.
Moved to a red state nearly a year ago. Been looking for work for over a year.
Can't find shit.
I have a high school education and my best lead is subbing in STEM classes. Seriously, thats what I'm currently filling out paperwork for. I have 12 years help desk, half of that medical. I can't find shit. I don't just mean in my field, I mean, anything that pays. I don't think someone who phoned in their highschool education, took a C to get out of there should be teaching either. But they're excited to have me. Yeah, terrifying.
My other lead is to volunteer to run into fires and set up a go fund me. Not. Kidding. Actually suggested by firefighters local to me.
This adult is getting one.
Oh I get it now. Americans think being elected imparts intelligence and the senate imbues control over the natural world.
Church, Senate, Dear Leader. Daddy. Whichever works.
