Joy, I totally agree with all of you who are reluctant to get their 2nd shot; I honestly don’t know what I would decide if I knew then what I know now. On one hand you have to consider husband, family, friends etc. because of uncertainty re: new strains and effectiveness of existing vacs, also desire for more freedom socially and less fear of contracting the virus; on the other hand there is the chance your health will suffer and pain could increase and you may be worse off than before in comparison to a possibly benign response to contracting COVD. Very hard choice but I might lean towards waiting if that is a viable possibility. We’ll still all be wearing masks for a while anyway. I am still not back to pre-vac. symptoms and my 2nd shot was Feb.10, I am better but some changes remain, I’m hoping they too will resolve. Helen
