As the name of this episode would suggest, I’m taking you along with me as I get two doses of the Pfizer vaccine here in New Zealand. I take you along in a diary style format as I begin to work out if I can even get it, when I should get it, how to get it, and how I felt afterwards. </p><p> </p><p><em>*This episode is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice. Please talk to a member of your medical team if you have any questions and before making any decisions for yourself or for others.* </em></p><p> </p><p>This episode is a little different to anything I've created before as I'm literally just talking into my phone for most of the episode. But I really hope you enjoy a more laid back style, and get an insight into how my brain works (aka how impatient I truly am lol) </p><p> </p><p>The zoom call about the Pfizer vaccine &amp; people living with MS: <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8k0-PV97DJE\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">youtube.com/watch?v=8k0-PV97DJE</a> as well as more information here: <a href=\"https://www.msnz.org.nz/covid-vaccine-update-for-people-with-ms/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">msnz.org.nz/covid-vaccine-update-for-people-with-ms/</a>&nbsp; </p><p> </p><p>If you’re in NZ and you would like to book your vaccine, or you want to know more, head to: <a href=\"bookmyvaccine.nz\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">bookmyvaccine.nz</a>&nbsp; </p><p> </p><p>The inspiration to document this (kinda huge!) moment for public health came from Morgan (<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/howtocoeliac\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@howtocoeliac</a>) and her vlog: <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzAmQgV9OaA&amp;t=5s \" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">youtube.com/watch?v=gzAmQgV9OaA&amp;t=5s </a>  </p><p> </p><p>RNZ's article: 'Google it': Ill man horrified by vaccine advice: <a href=\"https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/450856/google-it-ill-man-horrified-by-vaccine-advice\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">rnz.co.nz/news/national/450856/google-it-ill-man-horrified-by-vaccine-advice</a> </p><p> </p><p>Spotlight On is a regular (ish!) series here at That’s So Chronic where we get the opportunity to shine a light and chat a bit more in depth about something that’s in our That’s So Chronic world.
