I never do things the easy way. Apparently, that includes getting vaccinated against covid.
As a lawyer, I'm considered in my state to be an essential worker. As a result, I became eligible for vaccination very early in the process. However, because I have allergies and have had prior bad vaccine reactions, my doctor said that it was too risky for me to get a mRNA vaccine at the moment. At the time, the only approved vaccines were mRNA, so I had to hold off on vaccination.
I eagerly awaited the results of the Johnson and Johnson trial and the subsequent approval, since that vaccine uses traditional technology. Right after the J&J vaccine got approved, my state changed eligibility to be based only on age instead of occupation. My eligibility was revoked.
