Are the using Astrazenica I’m the US?
They were going to use it as the main vaccine here, but now it’s been reviewed and they are no longer recommending it.

They have such a mountain of available vaccines that they really do not even need to consider it. I also understand that they currently cannot "give away" vaccines, due to contracts, so they have been "lending" doses to other countries that must be "paid back". Hopefully they can modify those sales agreements, because the rest of the world sure needs help to get vaccinated.
I made appointments for 7 friends in the past couple of days. I kept trying to explain how to find appointments, but finally just ended up booking for them. I will need a new hobby once everyone is vaccinated.
My wife is getting the J&J shot this Sunday!
She's immune compromised, so I've spent the last year worrying that I could accidentally get her killed just by breathing in the wrong place whenever I'm out. Her finally getting the vax feels like a huge sigh of relief for me.
(Still no word on when I'll be able to get mine)

Husband just got his first shot! My parents (in their 70s) get their 2nd shot in a few days, and my 2nd shot is in a week. Now I just need my in-laws to get vaccinated, which they are planning to do as soon as it’s available. We have been lucky health wise and no one has gotten COVID; we are unlucky on the economic side, as our industry has not yet recovered and we are still unemployed. Between anxiety about getting sick and anxiety about paying the bills, this has been the most stressful time of our lives. Thrilled that effective vaccines are available! I can’t imagine where everyone would be without them. I don’t think I could handle another year of this.
I'll be getting my first dose on april 21st! Either Moderna or Pfizer, as the AstraZeneca isn't given to people under 55 here.
She's now fully vaccinated, and I'm getting my first shot tomorrow!
First shot done Monday (moderna) for me and Hubby! Most painful vaccine I’ve received (cannot compare to shingles vax for a long while) with pain at the injection site for several hours but still worth it. Arm was sore and overall felt a bit off that day, but woke up feeling normal yesterday (except for arm soreness).
Hubby did not experience what I did and felt fine other than a mild metallic taste day of. Says it feels like he’s coming down with the flu yesterday and today. Hubby had mild case of COVID a little over 90 days ago. (No one else in the family contracted it.)
Oldest (12) will receive Pfizer vaccine as soon as it’s cleared for her age - her best friend is currently in the study.
Gymmie is 9 so obviously no vaccine for her yet...

My youngest, 22, is getting her first vaccine on the 21st April. She does volunteer work at a homeless outreach center, and all staff have been offered the vaccine.
Second dose of Pfizer today, and I feel great (so far, hopefully no symptoms later, LOL). I will be considered "fully vaccinated" on the last day of the month. Come on, antibodies! 
Pfizer CEO says third Covid vaccine dose likely needed within 12 months
Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said people will "likely" need a third dose of a Covid-19 vaccine within 12 months of getting fully vaccinated.

Hoping that these vaccines will give enough protection to avoid hospitalizations long term. If they can do that, there should be no need for boosters.
What’s the connection between hospitalization and boosters?
Immune response wanes boosters are needed. Might be needed for different strains/variants..... nothing to do with hospitalization
