This is why I’ll have both of my epi-pens with me when I eventually receive the vaccine.

How many vaccines require sensitive storage temperatures while also suggesting an Epipen be available in the event of allergic reaction? Is that normal...

Considering our hospitals are full,the smartest thing to do is take a benadryl 1 hour prior to administration. We also need epi pen and O2 Supply standby. It would also be nice to have a nurse who can do vein access quickly. Yes, we should have IV set ready too.

I would advise anyone considering this vaccine research gene therapy. The human genome project and PCR testing. Good luck and God bless.
