  1. 2 weeks since my first poke at FHS. 3 family members also at 2 weeks from a FHS poke with no email regarding 2nd appointment. Not freaking out yet but the comments made today during the WilCo press briefing are saying this is normal.
  2. Cedar is high again. Make it stop!!!
  3. I was asked which group and what pre-existing condition qualified me for that group. No proof required.
  4. Yes. Otherwise there’s another lengthy line you gotta go through for paperwork.
  5. Could the new strains be increasing hold and starting to drive up the new case totals?
  6. Yes, 1st shot of Moderna last week at Kelly Reeves in Austin. 1B group. Super streamlined, took about 20 minutes total and never got out of the car. Had a headache, general tiredness and sore arm the day after.
  7. If you had a strong reaction to the first shot, you might not have much on the 2nd. Running theory is you may have been exposed previously and the 1st shot triggers the immune response. That or the second shot is really going to kick you in the balls.
  8. Oh I’m certain it’s political. Just not seeing enough people calling that out.
  9. This is good news: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/29/moderna-asks-fda-to-allow-more-doses-in-each-covid-19-vaccine-vial.html Moderna is seeking approval to put more dosage in the same vials because the manufacturing process to fill them is a bottleneck. Ups from 10 to 15 doses.
  10. The Wilco FHS hub has been going through their entire allotment in 2-3 days for the past 2 weeks they've gotten shots. I haven't been following APH's numbers as closely but they appear to be moving a tad slower. Might be due to their ridiculous internal prioritization policies.
  11. Week 8 TX numbers are out: https://www.dshs.state.tx.us/news/updates/COVIDVaccineAllocation-Week8.pdf More doses from the feds to Texas, but fuck you Austin, you get the same number of shots (about ~22k) again. Meanwhile, Collin county got an extra 25k doses, Denton got an extra 23k doses... what?
  12. Aren't all of the US doses coming from Pfizer's plant in Michigan?
  13. If you answer the intake questions in just the right way that APH’s magical algorithm is looking for , you will be “approved” for the vaccine now and given a scheduling page with no appointments. This is what people are refreshing and waiting for a spot to open. If you didn’t get the scheduler (as your post indicates), you’ve been waitlisted and have to wait for APH to reach out to you. As far as I can tell, APH is actively de-prioritizing people that have insurance and are telling those folks to go to their doctor. Nevermind they’re getting more than 90% of the entire county’s allocations, so you’re screwed. Really fucked. Look at the other hubs.
  14. Most have probably already gotten the vaccine or have natural immunity at this point.
  15. Yeah, not quick enough on the post edit apparently. I missed the Frankie part.
  16. Had a random inkling and watched Grand Budapest again last night. Man, what a great movie. You're not getting Boy with Apple, you goddamn little fruit!
  17. “The variant found in Britain had no effect on the levels of neutralizing antibodies — the type that can disable the virus — produced after vaccination. But with the form from South Africa, there was a sixfold reduction in those levels.” https://www.nytimes.com/live/2021/01/25/world/covid-19-coronavirus/moderna-says-its-vaccine-provokes-a-weaker-response-against-the-south-african-variant
  18. Who cares. Just get shots in arms.
