Jabbed
Got my first vaccine shot yesterday! Pfizer, no real side effects so far (my arm is a bit sore and I had trouble sleeping last night). My second is already scheduled, for April 7th. I went to the state department of health site at Moscone Center in San Francisco, which is a well-oiled machine -- apparently, they're taking care of 7,000 people a day. Perhaps ironically, it's being operated by my health care provider... who won't schedule me for an appointment yet.
It doesn't feel quite real yet, maybe because my risk doesn't really drop for a couple of weeks, and realistically I'm not sure much will change in terms of my behavior even when it reaches full effectiveness in mid-April. But it's still a huge relief to have it done.
