Hope they greased all those needles with Lucas for smooth operation.   

[peter lena 8,035]

@Ed Kennell thanks ed , did not even think about that , todays needles are so small , its like nothing , pete

[roadapples 6,981]

Not sure I'd get them laminated. Six months from now we'll probably need another booster....

[lynnmor 6,762]

Wednesday I get #3 and a flu shot, I’ll apply Vaseline to both arms first.

[AMC RULES 36,941]

Why stop there?

[rmaynard 14,864]

Our Staples laminates a COPY of the original. You put the original in a safe place and haul the laminated one around in your glove box.

The nurses who gave me my first two shots strongly advised NOT to get the card laminated, I think for the reason Jay mentioned.  They suggested taking a photo on my phone, but I'm a little too paranoid for that.  I like Mike's idea, although my glove box is a mess.  I'll find another place...  and then forget where that is.

We  got our Pfizer booster Tuesday.   We are both had flu like symptons yesterday...fever, sore joints, headache.

Feeling much better today.   I guess I shoulda gave our arms the "PETE  GREEN LUCAS TREATMENT".

    My youngest Son's  wife and family do not believe in any vaccines.   They all have Covid.   His FIL is hospitalized and on Oxygen.    MIL,DIL, and Son are is still fighting it at home.   My  Sons wife teaches special needs children and contacted the virus from one of her students bringing it home to her unvaccinated husband and parents.

My wife got her Pfizer booster a couple weeks ago with no issues. I got the Moderna booster Wednesday. No side effects until the middle of the night when I woke up feeling like I was hit with a baseball bat. Felt pretty funky all day Thursday but all better now. As far as another one goes I'll listen to the experts. I consider it foolish to do anything but. 

 

Our prayers to your family @Ed Kennell

Mrs.M got her booster (Pfizer) 3 weeks ago. No issues. Then we both got the senior flu shots 1 week later. I got my Moderna booster on Wednesday, again no issues. 

 

Many of the people that were at my doctors office had laminated their cards. The technician had to issue another card since they could not write on the plastic. My wife and I keep ours in a plastic zip lock sandwich bag.

[Ed Kennell 35,610]

I keep our unlaminated cards paper clipped inside our passports.

[rmaynard 14,864]

I just went down to the safe to retrieve our passports only to find that they expired in 1995. I'm glad that I didn't want to go anywhere outside of the U.S.

I would just like to point out that there are people out there eligible to run for POTUS who were not yet born when those passports expired.

[roadapples 6,981]

What's a passport.....

Got our flu shots Thursday, get our Moderna booster on the 8th of November...

I think Big & Rich had a song about that.

Yesterday the decision was made to remove the life support from my son Mikes 72yo  FIL.     He had been on support for two weeks and his organs were not functioning. 

Mike, his wife, Son, and MIL are recovering.

[tunahead72 2,334]

I'm really sorry to hear that Ed.  I think a lot of us understand exactly how difficult that kind of decision can be, we'll be thinking of you and your family.

I can only guess what a difficult time this has been for your son and his family. I wish them well as they adjust to the absence of this important person in their lives.
