I can't believe she got vaccinated

Philippines
April 16, 2021 3:24am CST
My mom who I thought would never be convinced about getting vaccinated got her shot yesterday. She was reading her bible and praying before she took it. So far nothing happened to her, she was just advised not to bathe herself because of the shot. By the way, it was Sinovac, I seriously thought it was Phyzer. I guess to get my shot soon.

My mom will not be convinced to have Sinovac. It is also the same senior citizens in my city.

Sadly, it would have trouble with her chance of recovery if she ever get covid. People here didn't even last a week when infected.

@Letranknight2015 I heard that it needs three shots of vaccines. This is being told by Pfizer.

Here at our place, Barangays were also started administering the vaccine. I don't know yet when it is available at my age bracket but I'm not sure if I get vaccinated.

Glad to know that your mom got vaccinated. It is much safer. I hope it goes well for her. Did you register yourself already? Here it is not yet available to every body but hoping it somewhere around July of this year

From what I know is that they prioritize the senior at first. But I heard some are getting listed early.

I think most elders here are going to be given Sinovac. I have no issue with it, as long as not that AstraZeneca.
