Covid19 Vaccinations

Many of we oldsters have already received the covid19 vaccination.

Soon all who want it will receive the shot in states across the nation.

Yet, TV news keeps needlin' us showin' 12 inch needles pokin' the shoulder joint!

You would think by now that we should've all received the "point"!

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 4/30/2021 7:21:00 AM Hi Bob I also think that needle is far too long, well said - did you get any after effects? we have registered and on record for having our injection anytime in May or June - it seems that been over 60 does have its advantages! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Login to Reply

Panagiota Romios Date: 3/25/2021 3:06:00 PM Lol...how did I miss this? I won't be getting one. But the news loves to scare us! Shameless, they are Pangie Login to Reply

Lindsay Laurie Date: 3/20/2021 9:14:00 PM Hello Bob … the news channels must sensationalize everything to lure us in. I wonder how much of it is really true - thanks Bob - Lindsay Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 3/19/2021 3:36:00 PM LOL The needles are huge and the dose of vaccine small. This is really funny, Bob! Have you seen the size of the Q-tips used to test for Covid? I think they're longer than the needles. Hope this pandemic will end soon. Enjoyed your witty verse! Hugs, Carolyn Login to Reply

Ilene Bauer Date: 3/16/2021 12:32:00 PM well said, bob! i've gotten both of mine and can't wait until enough people have joined me so that life can start returning to whatever the new "normal" will be. ~ hope you have someone to shovel all that snow for you!

To thank them I give them a gift card to local eateries during the snow season. Hopefully things will "normalize" soon. Stay safe - Bob

Harry Horsman Date: 3/15/2021 10:44:00 PM Still waiting for our jab here in western australia, Bob, although we only had a lock down for one week, in the entire period so far...but must not get complacent. Like the poem, it sure does get s to the point. Keep safe, Harry Login to Reply Robert L. Hinshaw Date: 3/16/2021 10:33:00 AM Great to hear from you, Harry. Appreciate your comments and you and yours stay safe. Bob H

Jan Allison Date: 3/15/2021 4:09:00 PM good one Robert, it seems to be working here with less 'oldies' getting the virus but its been rampant in the 5 - 19 yr olds, lockdown extended here till 31st march at the earliest. perhaps getting older does have its benefits not that hubby nor i have had jabs yet, he needs it more than i do with his health issues!!:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Robert L. Hinshaw Date: 3/15/2021 4:41:00 PM Thanks, Jan - glad you enjoyed. I've had both shots with no after effects, thankfully. Lots of snow here in Colorado and more on the way - brrrrr! Bob
