Covid Vaccine Thread

I'm hoping that those of us who are first in line for the "jabs" will post their experiences for everyone else to read.

Meanwhile, here's a little I copied from CNN to help answer some questions about the 2 major players. (Assuming Moderna gets the approval this week)

Cold storage: Moderna's vaccine does not need to be kept at super-cold temperatures, like Pfizer's.

Dosage and timing: Moderna's vaccine is administered as two 100-microgram doses given 28 days apart. Pfizer's vaccine is administered as two 30-microgram doses given 21 days apart.

If authorized, the Moderna used in people 18 and older. Pfizer people 16 and older.
