Heart inflammation after COVID-19 shots higher than expected in study of U.S. military | Reuters
Members of the U.S. military who were vaccinated against COVID-19 showed higher-than-expected rates of heart inflammation, although the condition was still extremely rare, according to a study released on Tuesday.
The study found that 23 previously healthy males with an average age of 25 complained of chest pain within four days of receiving a COVID-19 shot. The incident rate was higher than some previous estimates would have anticipated, it said.
All the patients, who at the time of the study's publication had recovered or were recovering from myocarditis - an inflammation of the heart muscle - had received shots made by either Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and BioNTech SE (22UAy.DE) or Moderna Inc (MRNA.O).

Sen. Ron Johnson with families on adverse reactions to COVID vaccine
the best way to prepare for it,
are the traditional face mask + face shield + social distancing.
even if we are all python-ed with it. (sawang-sawa nah).
treat the vaccine as an invisible shield.
you don't know whether it is there or not,
and you don't know whether it is protective or not.
bottomline, assume the vaccine isn't there.
So may new SOP para sa pag bakuna sa Las Piñas. Kailangan ipakita ng vaccinator yung syringe sa vaccinee. Kailangan makita din ng vaccinee yung pag tapon sa syringe. Just hope everyone will follow this and vaccinee will be vigilant to ask to see the empty syringe. Sana sa lahat ng vaccination site ito.

San Juan rolls out Moderna vaccines for residents
San Juan, Metro Manila's smallest city, was also the first to begin vaccinating its residents with the jabs developed by Pfizer-BioNTech.
It has since reached herd immunity in its borders and targets 100% vaccination by mid-July.
"I'm very optimistic that on or before July 15, we'll have finished the remaining vaccinations," Zamora said.
As of Tuesday, 69,586 first doses have been administered in San Juan City, or 81.48% of its target population of 85,400 to protect the population and achieve herd immunity.
Nice. Good practice can be considered as SOP for all vaccination sites.
Last worry mo na lang if indeed vaccine yung contents ng syringe or tubig lang [emoji23]
Masyado special itong si Gwen Garcia?
Sweeping ang policy ng IATF diba for compliance.

I’m surprised there is no procedure to check the syringe after injection. Hindi ba sila nag-iisip bakit may laman pa ung syringe at the end of the day.

Moderna and Pfizer vaccines could work for years: report - New York Daily News
There appears to be good news for those who have received the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines — and the news is even better for people who got over COVID-19, then got those vaccinations.
A study published in the medical journal Nature found reason to believe people inoculated with the aforementioned mRNA vaccines might not need booster shots if the COVID virus doesn’t evolve and adapt to the inoculations recently invented to kill it. Those who recovered from COVID, then got the jab, may even find themselves protected against variants that don’t yet exist.
I was thinking the same thing. the Syringes are disposed via a special trash can for hazardous materials.
its usual opening is very slim and small, the HCW would surely notice that the plunger is still full and would need to be pushed to properly disposed off in the hazardous trash can.
