When I got mine they made a point to put one dose in one arm and the other in the opposite arm. I forget why they said they wanted to do that and most people I've talked to have said they never asked them. My wife got both in the same arm. She had a sore armpit with swollen lymph nodes after her second one. I wonder if that would have happened if they had done the other arm for the 2nd dose, but I don't know.
Isn’t that what put all the COVID patients on respirators? The cytokeine storm is an overactive immune response.
That is not true at all. If you don’t have a reaction, that doesn't mean the vaccine didn’t work. The vaccines are extremely effective either way.
I wish the messaging from SU wasn’t so passive. They should be urging all students to sign up for a shot ASAP and explain that it’s everyone’s responsibility to get vaccinated, that the only way back to a normal campus life is to try to get to herd Immunity.
They announced 2 or 3 days ago that all students, faculty, and staff will be required to be vaccinated beginning June 1st.
Yeah and I wonder how that was taken. Imagine there will be some serious pushback from some. Can’t recall hearing this from other institutions.
Wasn’t really talking about vaccine effectiveness just the relative strength of virus response by immune system. Younger people are noting much stronger vaccine responses generally and it’s been noted that they theory is they generally have stronger immune systems in general. That’s all
If I’m not mistaken they had a brief shutdown of the Oxford vaccine in Europe but eventually decided the risk was minimal and continued with the doses.J&J slows distribution of their vaccine after the EU announced a review after some people developed blood clots.

All over the news here in Mass - BU, Northeastern, Brown, etc. are all requiring it. Duke, ND, Rutgers, Cornell, etc. too.

If precedents mean anything the anti vax cause is dead in court. We will see.
And just think - no smelly anti-Vaxxer weirdos sitting next to you!
Lol, I will have no problem with the anti-vaxers staying the cause. They can see me waving to them from 333 in the dome from their TV set.
Hit me at about 8 hours with Moderna.
Pushback would be hard to justify. Aren't vaccinations for other diseases required? I think I remember having to get a few boosters before I could attend SUNY Oswego 26 years ago.
