Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 3866733, member: 199"] Got my first dose of Pfizer at Pratt and Whitney runway drive-thru here in CT and have my second on March 9. Used the VAMS site for scheduling and it went smoothly though I waited in my car for about an hour. I preferred the Pfizer because the second dose is a week earlier so best cover comes a week earlier. My arm was sore for a couple of days after the first shot. Just want to remind people that while the vaccines are wonderful and hopefully represent the end of the worst of this pandemic, they are only 95% effective and that means 5 people out of every 100 vaccinated will still become infected with Covid. Much better odds, but with community spread still rampant, masks and social distancing still make sense, especially around unvaccinated people. While I will feel much safer in 3 weeks, it is still smart to remain vigilant through the summer. [/QUOTE]
