I finally got my first COVID-19 vaccine. But, in order to do so I had to drive half way across the state to get it. The event I went to was well run by the National Guard and the professionals doing the injections were kind and compassionate. I am scheduled to get the second one on April 2nd at the same place.
I don't mean to sound like an ingrate, but in order to get both shots I will end up driving roughly 500 miles (2 round trips per injection) and burn up a tank and a half of gasoline. And if you haven't noticed, the price of gasoline has gone up sharply in the past several weeks.
Still, I am thankful to see light at the end of the tunnel. I am told it will take two weeks after the second injection before I am fully covered against the coronavirus. I am ready to get on with my life.
