Funny as I used Horse Liniment a short while back to kill off some neck pain I had that traveled over to my shoulder. Painful as heck. I asked someone who worked for a Chiropractor and said they could had fixed me up for about $500. The Horse Liniment cost me $4.95. Haven't had one once of pain since.

That’s good stuff. Make sure there’s no dust in your hay and you’ll be fine.

Who wants to grow up??? I read a quote recently that was "The dumbest thing I ever did was to become an adult". I mostly agree.

In CT, my age group became eligible for the vaccine on Feb. 11th, but demand has been high and availability had been scarce. It's gotten a lot easier in the last ten days or so as several more clinics opened and as pharmacies began to administer them. I got my first shot of the Moderna vaccine today at a local pharmacy and they scheduled an appt for my second dose in four weeks.

Just got home from my second Pfizer shot. No problems detected and they were extremely well organized.
I do feel a little bit safer now. They told me that each day the protection increases exponentially.

I got my first one last Friday but I had to cross the state line to do it. There isn't much available around here.

Sounds good. How long was it between your first shot and second?

If a person could get enough of that vaccine you might be able to trade for some primers.... :)

Roughly three weeks.
No after effects yet. Not even a sore arm.

Very interesting of the range of side effects between age groups.

Cowboy, it's 21 days between first and second doses with Pfizer. Wife and I have them both, no problems. You should be fine.

I assume the people putting the covid vaccine sign up program have some sort of college education but then maybe that's the problem.
Here in Va. looks like they go out of their way to make it difficult.
Why not have a selection box for a couple so both of you can schedule the same day and a back to back time slot.

Why not have an open registration that continues. You register and when an opening comes up they notify you by email instead of only couple hundred slots? Why have to be online at 3 AM to try and get lucky to register?
The local CVS pharmacy right up the road from us is now talking appointments but if their selected number of slots is filled you can't log on.
I didn't go to a formal 4 yr. college but I do have some common sense to make the darn process simple!!

And the State run setup is totally screwed up and our city could care less with having to go 20 miles up the road in another county to get a shot.

Forty, from what I've seen & read, VA. does have major issues with distribution, etc. Thing is they're not alone. Country wide, the whole thing reminds me of what we used to call in the Army,
a " cluster f***.
What really amazes me, is that the VA is doing better than the rest. Don't happen often.

Yeah I jump thru all the selection hoops and when you get to register for a time slot the ol' "Techincal glitch" box pops up. I bet if you are sitting in a jail you get one !

Although I despise or governor Minnesoota is doing a good job it seems. My HMO actually notified me about an opening and I took it.
The VA is also doing a good job here.

Actually, I saw on the news in Nasville, prisoners in the state prison are getting shots. One screwed up deal.

I had great success going through CVS, and it was very smooth at the actual pharmacy.
