Shot
(noun)
A word that we have increasingly started to associate with vaccine shots rather than gunshots.
This post was written in response to today’s One-Liner Wednesday challenge from Linda G. Hill. The challenge, as the name implies is to come up with a one-liner. Please click on the link to know more about the rules of this challenge and/or to read the other entries by my fellow bloggers.
Have you got yourself vaccinated yet? Are you partially vaccinated or fully vaccinated? Which vaccine did you take? Or are you in the category that believes that the vaccines are not worth taking? Do let me know in the comments. I would love to hear from you.
Wherever you are, I hope you are safe and well. Take care.

That’s great. AstraZeneca is called as covishield over here and I got my first dose nearly a month ago. I’m grateful for it too. It’s better than nothing!

Oh. I’m glad that you’re fully vaccinated. I remember reading your posts or comments when you talked about the side effects. But it’s better to be safe. I was down for almost 2 days after my first shot of Covishield. Hopefully, the second shot won’t be that bad!

Thanks and so glad I’m feeling great after a month of symtoms. Most people don’l have such a long reaction and it’s more like you one or 2 days.
Hope your second is way easier💖💖💖

Good one Shweta. I was about to get shot today for the second time, but the crowd was crazy. Half a kilometer queue just to get the token! Hope to get it soon.

Half a kilometre queue just for the token. Was this after you scheduled a slot in the Cowin site? You chose wisely. Crowds can be dangerous. I hope you have a bit of a long window to get the second shot and I hope that you’ll get it soon! Stay safe, take care. I’m glad you enjoyed this one 😃

Doesn’t look like the registration works here. We have to go and get the token on the day of the vaccination from the centre. Very inconvenient.

Had both Pfizer shots months ago. Little reaction to the first, none on the second. Still staying masked even though CA has “opened up.” I want to stay safe. Sadly, there is a rise in gun violence again. I wish the only shots going on were vaccines.

That’s great, Lauren. Pfizer is really effective. I’m glad that you’re completely vaccinated and that you’re still using masks. It’s always better to be safe.
Yes, there is a rise in gun violence. That’s very unfortunate indeed. I hope that vaccine shots replaced all gun shots too! Thank you for stopping by and sharing your experience.
