My wife and I had the Pfizer shots with no side effects and we are both over 65. My friend had Moderna and had one day of aches, etc after the 2nd shot. No one else I know had any side effects. My kids had shots and my 19 yr old grandaughter, no effects.

My mother and my aunt both got the Pfizer shots, both in their 80s, my mom had no side effects from the shot but my aunt was down for a few days with fatigue and aches and pains all over and she said she had no appetite for a few days...She's fine now, they were one of the first ones who got vaccinated around the first month of this year...

In the county I live only 40 percent are fully vaccinated however when I drove into town yesterday virtually no one is wearing masks, maybe 5 percent if that...I'm still wearing a mask in the stores I go into...

Went into town yesterday and way more people are voluntarily wearing masks, almost 50 percent of the people I saw were wearing compared to about two weeks ago...I guess this Indian variant has made some waves...I've still been wearing a mask in the grocery store and other shops, but I don't linger around those places like some people do...I just get what I need and out the door promptly...

We're back to mandatory masks. I feel it's mostly meant as a muzzle. People were talking to each other a lot more without it.

The way the (Delta) Indian Variant is starting to take off people are losing the window of opportunity to get vaccinated and have time to develop some protection before case numbers get really high again...

I'm not getting vaccinated until the J&J is available here. Apparently, there was some kind of problem in the manufacturing of J&J vaccine that was allotted for Canada and so they refused to to accept that batch.

Has it become available in your area yet?...

A few cities are mandating masks again, so far no entire state has switched back to mask mandates but it may be coming...

Why do you think they will do that? Are they saying it's the virus variant?

Yes its infecting vaccinated people as well, this Indian variant seems to have a punch to it, one of the more serious variants to be cautious about...

I have noticed that on my last couple of trips to Aldi there are more people wearing masks than in the previous weeks.
Supermarkets should enforce the 'No mask,no entry' rule.

Those who refuse to wear one in enclosed public places should be told to mask up or get away.

I went to the grocery store today and wore my mask. I was almost the only one wearing a mask, but my sister and neice got sick last week and tested positive for covid. I don't know if my niece was vaccinated or not. My sister wasn't and had been staying home, but wen to Roswell last weekend for a weightlifting meet. I think she was already contagious and I worry about how many people may have gotten from her.

Yeah its not a huge inconvenience to wear a mask for what, 30min if that, to go in the shop, get what you need and promptly depart...To me its a nobrainer...Back when they relaxed the mask mandates here I was glad and gladly stopped wearing since it was no longer required and since I'm vaccinated...However things are different now and the Indian variant has more than a foothold in our country and its infecting vaccinated people and killing some of those vaccinated...So the mask goes back on as I've been wearing one for the past couple weeks or more whenever I go into any public place...Ugh wish this was over...

So there was absolutely no need to get vaccinated. It didn't change anything.

Indian Variant my ass.
