In the paperwork there is a page about V-Safe from the CDC.Â* You can

for any affects ofÂ* the vaccine.Â* I will get a text every day for a
week, then once a week for 5 more weeks, then one very few months.

Today they asked if the arm was sore (no), fever, other not feeling
well.Â* Only took a few minutes to respond.

It if completely voluntary but they are interested in how people are
doing.Â* I'm sure some of you will feel it is big brother but I feel by

My city has its own health department, so we were a bit ahead of the
county.Â* We got our second Moderna shots 3 weeks ago.Â* Hubby had a sore
arm.Â* I had an 8-hour flu the following day.

No post-shot surveys, though.Â* Too bad.Â* Useful data is... useful.



I would have contributed to the survey if they did it on line or even
through the mail. I just use my flip phone as a phone.

Lot of seniors have been confounded as to how to get the vaccine. It
has been a crap shoot on signing up. It was a nightmare on getting our
first shot. Traffic was lined up for miles and what should have taken
an hour took four and a half. The second was given at a mass event that
went smoothly but still took three hours with longer driving distance.
