I hope I wont tbh.
In germany we have this priority system where we first vaccinate the "old and/or vulnerable(healthcare workers etc)" and slowly ease restrictions. For some weird fucking reason people at my workplace are considered as important enough move up one tier (from lowest to second to lowest!) and can get it now before the normal, young, healthy masses are allowed to.

I'm getting AZ but I've heard from several people that they got a different vaccine than the one they signed up for, so I guess we'll see.

Just be sure to get the second shot (if there's one) from the same manufacturer lol

There are reports here of people getting pfizer as 2nd when they were originally vaccinated with Sinovac

That's actually what Germany is planning to do.
Give young people a different 2nd shot.
For god knows what reason and whatever grounds they decided on that.

e: to be clear, the reason why they do it is clear, but earlier on it was said that mixing up vaccines is not researched at all.

I thought "evil genius" was going to refer to the unibomber or something lol. The idea those people had was literally 100x dumber than just robbing a bank yourself.

The name was from a quote from the mad girl, i thought it was good.

I mean the story was not that "secret" as in like son's of sam, but the people were fucking disgusting.

Wild Wild Country, is... Wow

New resident evil is pretty good. Story is actually pretty engaging and the dialogue isnt quite as B-movie anymore. I wish they would bring back the over the shoulder camera though.

I'm signed up for either Pfizer or Moderna. My dad is adamant I avoid the Astra-Zeneca vaccine at all costs due to its blood clot risk.

True, but my dad gets very paranoid about risk and whatever he hears on the news I suppose. I didn't have much of a choice but to have Pfizer or Moderna though because the local sign-up for vaccinations only have those two.

Yes, we are bad at doing proper risk assessment.
Cause its super difficult to turn these vague % into action or averison.

Haven't heard much about AZ vs South African / Brazilian variant in the last weeks. it was said that it's only like 40% effective against the former?

I'm an absolute dumbass.
I booked a trip from the US to Amsterdam for July because I heard that the EU was considering a proposal to allow fully vaccinated travellers like me into their countries by the end of June and because there was a ridiculously good sale on them.
I call up the Dutch embassy in DC to get my documents in order and they tell me that the EU proposal is just guidance for its members and not official policy and that the Dutch government's official stance is that there isn't enough data on vaccines to make a decision yet.
Now I'm hoping that they change that by the end of June since right now, I don't have an essential reason to go

I wouldnt worry too much. There is too much dependancy on tourism and they won't be able to uphold the travel blocks for too long in a month.

Maybe you could argue for political prosecution and ask for asylum instead?
Sad as it is, it would be kinda true :-/

Every time I go to Amsterdam the first thing I do when I walk out of the train station is go say hi to the relief of Chet Baker right across the street from the station. Miss my old buddy hope I get to see him soon
