Vaccination head count

Have not received a shot but will as soon as possible.... when J&J is offered. I have to be picky.

I'm in the "Have not received any shot of any vaccine, and I'm not eligible yet, but but want to as soon as I'm eligible and appointments are available" category, but the issue in my case is that I will want to do antibody titers -- so I'm looking for a clinical trial where that would be included as part of the trial. So far, no luck... Pfizer has been the most promising of the three though.

Heard about this site last night:

Thanks, but that looks like it's for volunteers for ANY vaccine. Since I'm in Group 1C, it makes the most sense for me to be in one of the trials for one of the vaccines that are currently being administered or close to being administered. Pfizer has told me that they haven't even begun the trials for people in my particular category (yet we are supposed to be getting vaccinated as part of Group 1C!).

I'm also waiting for the j&j if I can be picky.

Any science on taking 'em all?

The dark swath across the middle of the small sticker is the same width as the band-aid they stuck it on. As RgrF stated, LA County is starting to kick it into high gear. Other SoCal counties are gaining traction, and the Sutter Medical monopoly unfortunately has NorCal all f'ed up. We went w/ Pfizer because of too many reaction stories from Moderna patients (and existing health issues don't like reactions...).

Was glad to hear Prez Joe getting more vax out, and especially more vax to local pharmacies. That should help a lot. Grumpy, old, step-FIL doesn't wanna go more than a couple of blocks to get vaxed, and I'm sure there's plenty more peeps like him that won't get vaxed until it's available across the street from 'em. Herd immunity can't come fast enough....

Surprisingly easy - once you can get past all the online sign-up nonsense. That part is not working well at all - at least here in Cali. Lots of personal information has to be input before you can even see if there's an appointment available. The system doesn't save your information (Thanks HIPAA) until after you can make an appointment.

The whole thing feels like a kludge, thrown together by people who've never apparently dealt with online scheduling with any kind of volume. Amazing, given that the state has had what, 9 months to get this in order? Probably should be thankful that anything at all ever gets done by the government.

What's so special about J&J? I received the Pfizer vaccine and data so far indicates very high efficacy.
