I've Been Vaccinated (No Politics Please)

[damo]

Got a booking, but the only times available are the days he's booked to work. I'm hoping he can get the time off. There's no link to reschedule the appointment. There used to be a link to check your appointment, but I can't find it any more.

If you’ve been vaccinated I would say it’s a lot safer to go to Disney. Nothing is 100% safe of course but I would feel better personally

Look at the bottom of your confirmation email.
Click on the box that says View or reschedule your appointment.

@Pumpkin1172 how are you feeling now? Hoping you are feeling a bit better now, after your positive test.

Feeling good. Went back to work on Friday and did a short shift on Saturday at the second job.
I went for a walk yesterday and it felt good to get back out walking again.

I do notice, that my lungs are still healing. If I am very physical ( work at the second job, tasking around the house or out walking ) my lungs physically hurt. It's not breathless ( although I do still have periodic times I get that yet) but they actually ache/hurt. So I'm hoping that if I keep on moving again, and just slowly build up again, that my lungs will not have this side effect for long. Also, weird side affect...my feet area ALWAYS freezing. I'm still sleeping with socks on and wearing socks with shoes. No cute summer shoes for me yet. I hope this goes away as well.

I'm glad to hear you're on the mend. Take care until you finish the healing process.

My youngest son just got an appointment at a walk up clinic in our neighbourhood. He should be getting the jab as I type this. I will head off shortly to go pick him up. There were lots of 20 somethings standing about waiting for their time to get in the lineup. Walk up clinics in Ottawa have you come and get an appointment ticket for later in the day.

I'm so relieved he's getting it. DS2 gets his shot on the 17th (also a hot spot clinic but with appointments through the province) DS1 works from home and will be waiting a few more weeks. Social media alerted me to this clinic which was not well publicised otherwise.

Edit to add: he got Moderna.

Slow & steady Hon....
Remember to take your time.

Love hearing and reading about all the vax reports. I had mine (Moderna) 3 weeks ago, and I was the last of the adults in my immediate family to get it. Waited for my cohort, and all my friends jumped when the time came, no matter the vax offered.

DH is scheduled for his 2nd shot in early July, as is my mom. I should be the last on Aug 12...countdown for all of us to have it is on! And then just waiting for the kiddos to be ready for it.

We're booked for WDW at the end of Oct/beginning of Nov. Now that we have our first shots (2nd by August in AB), all we need is for the border to open and we're outta here!

@Pumpkin1172, so glad that you are feeling better. Take it easy and day by day! Hoping you are back to 100% soon.

Looks like Ontario will be mixing & matching vaccines for those of us that got AZ, at least that it what I read on my MSN homepage. I wish the news wouldn't report things like this until those UK studies have been completed first.

 

[FigmentSpark]

Does anyone know if Ontario has a law that companies must give their employees time off to get the vaccine?

I'm not sure if it passed or how it actually works: https://www.cp24.com/news/ford-gov-...ys-off-as-part-of-temporary-program-1.5405809

Thanks. If that's true, that will be a relief.

No law as far as I know. But, my gut thought is that very few will not work with you on it. All depends on how accessible the appointment schedule is when you book. But, no law...employer/employee policy.

I finally have an appointment. As an essential worker in group 2 in Ontario, I was able to schedule my first shot for next Tuesday. I'm so excited!

I'm glad that you are feeling a little more 'normal'. The key will be slow, steady, and don't get frustrated if there is a small slip....just rest some more.

Daughter & GS both now vaccinated! Both received pfizer and both have their second appointments booked.

Now just my youngest daughter and both SILs to go, and they should be good to go by this weekend!

Hoping that before school starts in the fall that the two littlest grands will also be vaccinated... then we can book and actually go on our twice cancelled trip to WDW!

 

[ottawamom]

Looks like my second jab is going to be something other than AZ. Ontario has decided because of supply and safety issues they are pausing AZ.

Here we go again...

Probably Pfizer, but I keep reading that could be better in the long run, as long as we don't get forgotten I'm ok with whatever!

It appears that they are saying no more first dose AstraZeneca, in Ontario.

I do not believe that they have crossed out AstraZeneca for your second dose, as yet. They are looking at the study that second dose lowers the likelihood of blood clots to 1 in a million, with AstraZeneca. And at supply.

They said no more first doses. You could still get it for your second.
