HealthRe: My COVID-19 Vaccine Experience by ekoscolary: 7:17am On Sep 17, 2021
Dozis:
So today I took the first jab of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 Vaccine and here's my experience.

I registered today and I still took the vaccine today, the registration was so simple, easy and seamless, you can register here https://nphcda.vaccination.gov.ng/

After registration, you will receive a message indicating the vaccination time, date and centre.
Luckily for me, the vaccination centre is very close to where I work, on getting there, there was no crowd, as a matter of fact I was the only one coming to take the vaccine as at that time, so I walked up to a nurse and made enquiries, she directed me to the people in charge, they asked wether I've registered I answered in affirmative, they checked my name in their system and confirmed my registration, after the manual registration, I was shown the health worker in charge of the vaccination, the woman was just nice and straight to the point, I received the vaccine and was asked to sit for 10-15 minutes so that they can observe me for side effects and there was none, though I wasn't expecting any and till now, till now I feel nothing but just the initial needle pain and I know some people that took theirs 6 months ago and they are all fine.

I am scheduled to take the next jab by 28th of next month.

I am a front line health worker and during that first wave and lock down I contracted COVID-19 and the experience was not funny, so I don't want to take chances, I don't want to have the feeling again.

To the naysayers, COVID-19 is real and the vaccines are safe and accessible, please go and take yours now.
From the expiry date on your vaccination card, it seems like the vaccine you took has expired ?

Not found wanting? Chai!! Olodo I know I have spurred you into some research which is my service to olodos like you. S & P owned up to fraud and had to make settlement.

Have your ever heard of the S&P Greek fiasco or the Brazillian one similar to the self serving(we know whose interests they serve) one given to goons like you to swallow ...hook, line and sinker. S&P has a bad reputation globally and were told to shut up by the Brazilian government when they tried to make unintelligent statements like the one made on Nigeria, which low-esteemed people like you like to buy.

What do I do for a living?.....I educate Olodos like you.
Why are you showing your crass ignorance in a public forum ? Is S&P a clear leader in its industry - yes or no ? Do you know the difference between indictment & conviction ( like in d case of arthur andersen ) ?
I have been replying you & using other renowned opinions to support my arguments buh your brain is so blocked. So, I give up on you sir.

Funny that the first thing that came to my mind when I read that article was your empty skull and I suspected you will quickly jump on it and go to NL to respond.I was not wrong.

It is funny that you could not come up with any argument until you saw an article from an institution that was complicit for causing the 2008-2009 global financial melt down and was indicted for fraud in the US......even complicit in the latest EU economic crisis. Where is your brain?

Trust me. You are not bright at all and never will.
My arguments (even before the S & P's report) were in syn with S & P's. S & P is the clear leader in credit research and financial market intelligence for institutions in the world.
Indicted ( probably because of their massive size and high level of involvement in world businesses ) but not found wanting.
I will like to know what you do for a living because of your lame arguments on a rather simple economic issue.

You should not have quoted me initially knowing fully well you lack basic capacity to even make a weak or moderate argument on economic policy.

Anyway run along carrying your archaic economics textbooks on top of your empty skull and disappear whenever you see people talking about monetary or fiscal policies in the new age. Olodo!!!
Mumu dullard.
I didn't intend to reply you but for S & P's report currently on front page - CBN has no option than to devalue naira.
It will be in your interest to go read it to revive those dead cells in your brain.
I look forward to your uninformed arm chair criticism response to S & P.

grin grin grin You are more of a dunce than I thought. What points have you made that are worth addressing. If they were intelligent maybe I would.

As to being ignorant of the synergy between fiscal policy and monetary policy or cordination btw both authorities,I doff my hat for your stupidity. I merely gave you modern day alternatives than rushing towards devaluation. I maintain that Emiefele should be axed because he is an obselete textbook word for word Olodo like you. Textbook says devalue and Olodos run to devalue. I will remind you of your idiocy when the negative effects of this action rears its head.
It's very evident that you are a slowpoke arm chair critic. I won't waste my time replying you again.

1stCitizen:
The problem with you is that in spite of your limited knowledge, you believe quasi-fantasies written as text book theories are still relevant given the current shift in prevalent global/local economic indices. You are very bold to quote me from an angle so deficient. Let me educate you.

Devaluation is a politically sensitive issue that is bound to have negative repercussions such as increased costs which forces raised import tarrifs(as seen recently), tax and price hikes.Now is not the time.

A devalued Naira inadvertently and instantly pushes up the cost of repayment of debt. CBN's action further widened the discrepancy between official and black market exchange rates which if it becomes too wide, causes numerous economic problems you may be too uninformed to understand due to your limited knowledge.

CBN should have pursued an organized government attempt, either unilaterally or multilaterally, to prop up our sagging Naira through coordinated market intervention. Devaluation is not necessary and is, in fact, disruptive since it interferes with free market forces.

Let's go to your high school text book theories.... devaluations frequently coincide with broader economic turmoil such as inflation, instability in the financial markets, and recession, spending is likely to be tight in countries whose currencies have been devalued.

In reality, any trade deficit in a relatively open market system will automatically be translated into a decline in the Nigeria's price levels through the outflow of money that is assumed to reduce prices and, in turn, depreciate the country's real exchange rate and not forceful intervention. Let it happen organically rather than being interventionist.

A rebalancing of the economy towards export-generating, import-substituting, low-tech manufacturing is the only option that will save Nigeria's sick economy and not intervention which negates the idea of market forces determination.
You have an incurable level of ignorance. It seems you are confused because I'm struggling to understand which magic wand you want CBN to wave and your uninformed position on the weak naira.
You said the CBN governor should be axed and your last paragraph is all about fiscal policy. Is CBN responsible for fiscal policy ?
How else is CBN going to do co-ordinated market intervention which does not negate the idea of market forces determination other than a systematic devaluation of the naira in the face of forex reserves depletion ?
Give specific examples and don't reel out flawed economic theories without making pragmatic sense.
Don't go outside of monetary policies to fiscal policies ( as contained in your last paragrah ) because that is not the mandate of CBN.
I pray you address my points and not reel out economic epistle without making any sense like you always do.

1stCitizen:
You have made no sense especially with the name calling. The depreciation in the value of the Naira is connected with the closure of trading at the interbank market by the CBN. This decision which was meant to control speculative activities of some operators in the market is responsible for the depreciation.

Quote me if you have any intelligent response.
This guy or doll ... So what options does a monoproduct country with depleting reserves has other than devaluation ? So you want CBN to continue to subsidise speculators @ N168/ $1 with our hard earned reserves ?
That is very unintelligent of you and yes ! I quoted you !!

1stCitizen:
The only sensible comment so far.

Buhari should suspend Emiefele or whatever his name is.....a precedent has already been set with Sanusi
How do you make comparison with different bases. How much was crude oil when Sanusi was CBN governor ? The problem is more of fiscal policy rather monetary policy. So guy or doll, your own post does not make any sense.

I wish this people would just listen to Henry Boyo an astute economist, and a large chunk of our economy will be revived in 'no time'.

He predicted where we are headed a long while ago.

http://www.lesleba.com/ these guys no more about the economy than all of Nigeria's economic team from the past and now put together, but their voices are consciously drowned.
So r u saying we should directly dollarise our economy ? Hell No. CBN is currently not dispose to subsidising frivolous private & public dollar expenditures. That is d main purpose of its recent policy to yank off some goods from IFEX funding.

Painfully yes, and you see them quoting yeye 196.5N/$ on their website.

I can reliably confirm to you that over 2 Billion Dollars are waiting FOREX in all tier 2 or 2nd tier banks in Nigeria.
