No, some members use Chat or PM rather than the forum. Sometimes someone pops up on the forum who seems not to have used it in years but I've seen a few, and had contact with some, that use this place for it's other facilities so it could just be one of them.
So, it doesn't mean a duplicate account.
Regardless, agree with Nic.

There is certainly the possibility of adverse effects, but it is insanely low, especially with Moderna and Pfizer. The chances of adverse effects are much higher with covid, which is concerning and is what got me to get the vaccine. Plus, any adverse effects with the vax are going to happen quickly, so after a few days if you’re fine you’re fine. Not the same with Covid. That helped me out - I was nervous but told myself after three days if I was okay I was in the clear.
On the road of experience, join in the living day. If there's an answer it's just that it's just that way.

Nancy, am I right in thinking you had covid before? I think we spoke about it when I had it too.
If so, I would say that the side effects from the vaccine were 50x better (not exaggerating) than how I felt when I had covid. I did feel particularly awful when I had covid, but it was definitely only a mild case and I still feel lucky for that. I wouldn't want to risk having a more severe case - my boyfriend was really quite unwell and we both want to do anything possible to avoid that again - but even the mild case I did have was horrible and I wouldn't want to go through that again.
I don't think there is a risk of clots for Moderna and Pfizer, and all other side effects are very very manageable.
On the other hand, there is a huge risk of clots from severe covid, as well as countless other illnesses. The Delta variant in the UK is really getting through the unvaccinated population, so I would really really recommend getting it.
I know its scary - especially when people are spouting anti vax nonsense everywhere, but try to just focus on the facts. The vaccine WILL protect you.
If you use instagram, I recommend taking a look at these profiles:
science.sam
sciencewhizliz
twodustytravelers
The first two are scientists involved in immunology and the last account is an ICU nurse (she was a travel nurse before covid hit hence the name). They have lots of great info saved in their highlights
You can do it!
