I had really no side effects after the second shot, just a bit tired, and a sore arm for one day.

"Several ongoing studies are investigating the effects of mixing coronavirus shots. Data has been released from mixed trials in Spain and the United Kingdom, which suggest that mixing vaccines leads to a strong immune response and sometimes outperforms two doses of the same vaccine.

In Germany, a third study also revealed that the immune response of mixing coronavirus doses was better than two AstraZeneca shots and as good as or better than receiving two doses of the Pfizer vaccine."

What a difference two months make…
Quote:
Just two months ago, less than 5% of Canadians were fully vaccinated against Covid-19. At the same time, about 40% of Americans were. Today, a little less than 50% of Americans are fully vaccinated, while a little more than 50% of Canadians are.
Quote:
In the Angus Reid poll in Canada, 85% of adults who voted for the center-left Liberal Party in 2019 have been at least partially vaccinated. It's a similar 84% for the progressive New Democratic Party.
Quote:
Among those adults who backed the Conservative Party in Canada's 2019 election, a lower 69% had received at least one dose.
Trump supporters are a big reason why Canada and the UK are beating the US on vaccinations

Our right-wing politicians have the same shortcomings, in general. Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas is stepping up to the plate but not many are. Governors Abbot and DeSantis of Texas and Florida are huge disappointments. In your country aren't Ford and Palliser urging vaccinations?

Don't know about Ford but Pallister has. I think he needs to have stronger and more targeted messaging though. The few people I know of that have not been vaccinated are all conservatives. There seems to be a lot of misinformation about vaccines out there.

Government did a good job with the quickness of releasing the vaccines. I just hope the mixing of Pfizer and moderna will be recognized internationally otherwise I’m going to have to get another shot of either one. Minor inconvenience if I have to.

Yeah I don't mind getting a third shot if necessary.

Huh? The comments in my post were about Canadians. The first link I posted was simply the source. The second link contained Canadian data only.

Okay. We already know about all that. But how is any of that relevant to Canada and the UK now being ahead of America in the percentages of people who've gotten vaccines?

And why are Americans having to be bribed with payments to get vaccinated? Is it because the Americans who have not yet gotten vaccines have become more frightened to get vaccinated because of reading too much right-wing propaganda, conspiracy theories and misinformation .... or what?
