JUWS

I didn't see that in the ad, so I messaged him and he said $500! 😲 Well not on my list of possibilities, lol!

What did he quote you for massage rate?

Have you gone to him/them?

Yes! Got my 2nd on Sunday here in NYC. Was glad to see so many guys and a few others, turn out there!

Cool! Most likely someone cancelled and you were at right place at the right time haha! That's great! I was able to get my appointment quickly online at 4:05pm, shot #2 Sunday morning!

Good news for some of us NYers; you can now get the second dose if your first was given at least 28 days ago! Tomorrow starting at 4pm online or via phone you can make your appointment 😃 vax4nyc.nyc.gov/monkeypox or calling 877-VAX-4NYC. 🍾

My email/text says only for those who had first shot 10 weeks prior which is not me yet 😪

I got the same notification. But strange as they had initially said one needs to get 2nd dose 4-5 weeks no longer. And this is just now taken from CDCwebsite https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/vaccines/jynneos.html Says 28 days apart or at least within 35 days... so 10 weeks? huh?

Congrats!! Maybe majority have gotten 1st shots already? 🤷‍♂️ I got mine in the Bronx back in July and the line was very long, lots of guys, also lots of volunteers which was nice to see. 😀

Yup! My injection site was swollen purplish red for over 2 weeks and I also had 1 large pimple and what looked like a boil, but both went away after 2 -3 days. Saw my ID doc and he said was definitely reaction, not to worry.

Yes, and what I have read is it's 98% effective 14 days after 2nd dose! (83% 28 days after 1st dose) so seems like the Reddit post took a chance and waited only 9 days after 2nd dose to engage. 🤷‍♂️

Who knows really. I'm in NYC too and my ID doc said there would be, and to not worry. Hopefully he's not just saying that to keep me calm, but I've trusted him for everything else. I guess the other question remains will it be a full shot or split for 5 people? There is a lot of controversy on both sides of the coin regarding this 🤷‍♂️

Yes to the disposable great! But I still wonder about the towels, especially since you say not changed all the time, who can say? All boils down to trust, and how much of a risk one is willing to take I guess..... I'm still going to wait for my 2nd shot, even though my desire is so strong LOL!

UPDATE; Saw my ID doc who said this was definitely reaction to the vaccine and not to worry! Plus they have disappeared after 2 days! No more have shown up and no other symptoms.

I also wonder about the sheets and towels etc that are used. Are they being thoroughly washed hot water soap and dried in hot dryer to kill anything?? I really want to have a massage badly, but all this makes me still say "Wait!" I had my 1st shot last week, so getting there 😂

Thanks for your reply. When I posted on Friday 8/5 I too had 2 "pimples' near to injection site; 1 small big white head looking like it could pop, and the other about 1/2 inch from injection site 1/4 inch round "puffy clear looking boil" as opposed to white head pimple. This morning, 2 days later, they both are almost gone! I guess this must be new side effects that should be posted by CDC and the like, because I could find nothing listed only the other possible side effects, and it was very frustrating not knowing. Seeing an ID doc tomorrow just in case and also so they can notate add to data and pass this on so other docs and patients can know.

Thanks for your reply. I am experiencing the same and also had 2 "pimples" near to the injection site appear, one of which is puffy looks like a "boil". I'm seeing doc on Monday see if anything to be concerned about 🤷‍♂️

Chen was always good at Yeah Man. But haven't been in long time since Covid. Whose there now?

There have been good reviews about him on the site in the past. Maybe one day after all my shots 😀

I got my 1st shot in NYC Saturday July 30th. The injection site has been swollen since then, 1 week. Has anyone else had any reactions with prolonged swelling, rash, pimples etc? I have an appointment with my doc on Monday, but just wondering if anyone else experiencing anything?

Like the early days of Covid, there seems to be uncertainty with this now as to 1 or 2 doses and also I guess depending on where you live as in UK, Canada, Germany there are offering a 1 shot of a different manufacturer. I got my "1st" shot Saturday in NYC, and they have on the vaccination receipt a place to be filled in after the "2nd" shot, so seems like they are planning on giving 2 here for now anyway. I just noticed on a fact sheet they handed us from the CDC saying "people who have received small pox vaccine in the past might only need 1 dose." But they did not ask if you had smallpox vaccine, nor anywhere on the sheet to even notate that...🤷‍♂️.

Finally got around to reading this one, thanks, great article! Having my first shot this Saturday, feeling fortunate to have obtained a date!

A lot for everyone to learn still, even medical community, as now there have been confirmed cases among children in US and Europe too. I have my vac appointment for beginning of August.🤷‍♂️ https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/22/health/monkeypox-children-vaccine/index.html Stay safe all!

Thanks I thinks its great to see and read all of the info that's coming out now. But this article is confusing; in one paragraph they say " it has been found in saliva, semen, urine, fecal, nasal." Then in a later section, " The virus appears not be transmitted sexually." Well if it's found in the latter, then it can be transmitted sexually no? I realize I'm no medical expert, but......? Just wish they had cleared that up before publishing. Regardless, I'm getting my shot or shots, as it can be through sex, or just contact skin to skin and droplets even... Stay safe all!

Thanks, where are you located? Just curious as looking for a gay sex approving doc, 😂
