Will, It's not my goal to derail the thread...the man genuinely appears to be wanting to make an informed decision. I'm not against immunizations but have always been against yearly / repeat vaccines.

Both my folks got the jab & are in their mid 70's...Mom was hit by a train for 24 hours with both shots, Pop & step dad had no issues other than a sore arm. I think all were pfizer. In the end, it as a personal choice & if they are happy, I'm happy. My mom however is a vacshole & says I'm endangering the public by not taking it. So there is that.

My wife and I are scheduled to get first dose of Moderna tomorrow. I'll post back with any side-effects, etc.

Update:
No issues from first dose aside from sore arms.

Another Update:
Wife developed an itchy rash at the injection site about 8 days post injection. According to The Google, this seems to be a known side-effect that impacts a small percentage of people but doesn't seem to be of much concern. (it goes away on it's own after a few more days)

Are vacs creds being entered into a data base?

Got the J&J this morning
Not required for work or anything, Though I'm considering putting on any application I send out.
Injection was near painless, arm was sore afterwards Going on 3 hours later and not pain or symptoms( the nurse was a military nurse working at mass vaccination site. She was really good. But I bet a lot of you guys don't have fond memories of the military and needles lol)
She told me to really relax my shoulder and it would hurt less and I think she was right.

For those interested in a deep dive into the mRNA vaccines, with safety focus, this is solid vid I thought. Safety aspects start at min 29:

Professor Shane Crotty, PhD answers a series of COVID 19 vaccine questions including what are the chances of long-term side effects? How safe is RNA vaccine (i.e. Pfizer / BioNTech and Moderna Vaccines) technology? How long does mRNA from a vaccine stay in our cells? What else goes in vaccines? How long does immunity last? Why are T-Cells so important?
