Hello sweetheat,I am so sorry to hear about your mum, my best wishes go out to you.

but this should not stop you from having the first jab, there is a very low percentage of people who have symptoms afterwards. The second jab is no problem and will give no problems as the antibodies are already in your body.

Let me put this to you another way, apart from protecting yourself by having the jab, you must protect others, if you do not have the jabs then you could be a carrier without knowing it and pass it on to your loved ones.

At least if you have the 2 jabs then you have a clear concience and know that you will not get the virus, but also you are protecting your family too from getting it.

Hope this helps, and I send love and best wishes to you xxx

Hi Clara

First I am so sorry to learn about you mother's stroke and certainly understand your concerns.

I had the Moderna shot in Early March and follow up in Early April. I had no reactions to either shot besides some location tenderness. And a month later no changes too.

I hope this helps you with your decession making... either way

I had my first jab 7 weeks ago with no ill effects at all. I have my second one in 4 days.

So sorry to hear about your mum, that's awful. There have been a lot of reactions, which are hardly reported anywhere other than in alt media.

Personally, I will be waiting until there is some medium/long term safety data before I have it. I feel at little risk from Covid but do have a lot of drug allergies and mysterious neuro symptoms so it's a no from me!

Hi the News said you have as much chance of getting clots or fatal reactions as on a long haul air flight, as having then with a Covid jab.

Nothing in this World is 100% safe, everyone knows this- faces the fear- and still carry's on regardless because that is all part of life.

I had my jab so I could in clear conscience a) not panic about getting hospitalised with Covid b) less likely to cause Covid illness for my family who have all sorts of medical vulnerabilities too.

And despite having a couple days of feeling rough after the 1st Jab - I'm still going for the 2nd!

Look for the calm in the storm
