COVID-19 vaccine

[Xidelt]

My husband and I are public school employees in Georgia (HS teacher, school librarian) and we are both looking forward to getting the vaccine. However, now that the state has opened up the vaccine to people 65+, we may be pushed down the list. My district sent out a survey to gauge interest amongst employees, but who knows when we will here more. A colleague's wife is set to get her 2nd dose soon and has heard from other nurses/folks in her practice that the reaction to the 2nd dose is stronger, like what the OP noted.

My niece is a HS teacher in Tennessee and just got her notification to get her vax.
In Ohio, HS teachers will begin eligibility next week with age 80+. Thankfully, we are prioritizing the teachers right now but many are refusing to get the vax.
