Today Ann and I had our second AZ shot, so we are now fully vaccinated. Twelve weeks between injections is a long time and I can understand people opting for the much shorter turn around time of the Pfizer shot.

But I am just grateful for the hard work of nurses and doctors and researchers. Their efforts collectively will help everyone find a pathway out of the pandemic.

I really hope that the people who desperately need vaccinations in South-East Asia and elsewhere can soon get the help they need. To all those who sprout absurd conspiracy theories, or who spruik false or misleading information about being vaccinated, I hope you don't have to learn the hard way.
