Getting My First Pfizer Vaccine Shot: What I Wish I Was Told

[chittychitty]

Initially I’d booked a vaccination slot in mid-July at Hougang CC as that was the earliest slot available for the Pfizer vaccine. Then thanks to my pal, J, who shared that there were (new) slots available at Sengkang CC this month, also for the Pfizer vaccine, I quickly changed my appointment date and venue. The slot I’d selected was for 9.30am this morning and I’d arrived early – it wasn’t even 9am yet. I’d heard from other folks who’ve gotten their jabs that there’s little waiting time – they waltzed in and got their shots. Unfortunately for me, this wasn’t the case. Along with a few other folks who’d arrived early, we were seated at the waiting area, in the picture you see above, watching those with 8.30am/9am appointments getting their registrations done. And it was FREEZING in there. I think there were about 8 portable air-conditioning units just in this space alone. It gave me an overwhelming urge to pee *cross legs*.

Protip: Just be punctual for your appointment (no need to arrive early), go pee prior to registration, wear long pants and tops with short sleeves. Bring a shawl if you’re really afraid of the cold. An auntie seated in front of me wrapped herself in a shawl and I was SO envious! But thankfully I didn’t wear anything sleeveless today.

Once the registration was done, I was given this little slip of paper with my particulars printed on it, then I joined the queue and we walked over to the vaccination area. The lady who gave me the jab looked SO young (maybe 20 years old?), but she had such kind eyes and the jab was given swiftly. I’d rolled up my sleeve, taken a deep breath and just as I was breathing out, she said “take a deep breath in” *oops too late* and I felt the needle prick my skin. And that was it. Done. Plaster on and I could go.

She told me to press down on the injection site for a minute, and so I did. As I walked to the waiting area and got myself seated, I followed her instruction. No one else did, it seemed.

His mother should have written a piece to say “I wish I knew what I was getting into when I gave birth to my idiot son!”

How come i got a fat minah. But it was painless. I was against vaccination but i can see life will be intolerable for those not vaccinated with all kinds of hinderances imposed. Such as barred from buildings and events.
