For those of you in the eligible or soon to be eligible groups, I discovered two things about getting the vaxinations appointment (got my shot this past Friday). 1) Of all of the systems (VAMS, Walgreens, Yale , CVS) I had the best luck with CVS 2) CVS appears to update their availability at 6:00 AM Eastern each day so get on right at 6:00 AM. 3) you will probably need to wait 20 - 40 minutes to work through the national queue. Do not refresh. 4) You can only do one apt at a time, so if possible, get two or more devices into the system at the same time (right at 6) if you need one for your spouse. Good luck.

ne, same here, viral mutations showing up that present vaccine doesn't cover. That should be no surprise and may possibly require some type of booster in the future. Whatever.

I got both my Moderna shots a few weeks ago. I felt a little nauseous the next day, but was able to work the whole day.

I went to Bloomfield, as soon as i got my shot the computer refreshed and was able to schedule for my 2nd shot when i had to sit for the 15 min. I got the moderna shot. I felt a little nauseous the next day with a sore arm. After a couple of hours after taking a couple of tynolal pain went away a d been fine ever since.

Although it's kept me extremely busy at least there was one advantage to being an essential healthcare worker.....
