I got my first dose of Pfizer vaccine shot last August 18 and got my 2nd dose shot on the same location last September 12. With the rising cases of those who are being Covid+, I’m glad that I am at least have that upgraded protection. The less likely I get the disease, the less likely that I also pass them to my loved ones, friends and the other people in my community.
Yes, I’m fully aware that being fully vaccinated doesn’t mean that I’m already immune to the disease but I have full trust and hope in the medical system that vaccines were fully studied and tested. According to WHO, Pfizer has 95% efficacy against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.
If you still have doubts with getting fully vaccinated, you should read World Health Organization’s series – Vaccines Explained and don’t read fake news or articles being scattered everywhere.
This second shot, I felt the injection more than the first one. I mean, I felt some pain when I got injected and felt the sting of the medicine inside my skin. On the second day after I got vaccinated, I felt some body pains and hadn’t been able to sleep well. But on the third day, I felt normal again.
I got my fully vaccinated ID already and can already use them to get discounts. Just yesterday I got 10% discount from Miniso when I bought my daughter’s wireless keyboard. I also got a discount last time buying yogurt drink from Koomi. My husband gets discount on gasoline oil whenever he shows his vaccination card as well. I’m happy that more and more people are getting vaccinated and that there are perks that people get because they trusted the health system.
So what now after? We are still waiting for my husband’s Astra Zeneca vaccine shot – (AZ needs 8-12 weeks before second shot) but after that I’m planning to get us an International Certificate for Covid19 although I still have to study if we really need it or not if we plan to travel abroad soon.
How about you? Are you fully vaccinated already? Whatever your situation is right now, please do consider searching for the right facts and have yourself and your family and your community in mind. Stay safe!
