Fully vaccinated

Three days ago, my wife and I were vaccinated. Finally! And it wasn't just the first dose; it was the second dose of the Sinovac vaccine for both of us. Although we had to drive all the way to the Kepala Batas Hospital for the jabs, these were journeys well worth taken. 

And no, we did not suffer any adverse side-effects for both jabs although my wife did mention that she had a slight bout of diarrhea the first time around. 

Despite the vaccinations, we are still very careful with our movements outside the house, only going out whenever necessary, taking exercises alone, always wearing our double face masks, washing hands, keeping safe distances from other people and sanitising things like car steering wheels, doorknobs and keychains.

In fact, we shall need  to continue with our self-imposed movement control and personal hygiene for a lot longer. If a certain small, richer and far better managed country like that little red dot down south is finding it difficult to control the current Indian variant, what hope do we have to get the cases down to even triple digits? We've to take constant care of ourselves first!
