I've to counter your anecdata with mine. It's the same with Pfizer. Second shot can create adverse reactions. I know people who got flue-like symptoms (headache, muscular pain, increased temperature) for a day. Amongst doctors it is very common. Prior exposure to covid-19 is suspected to be a contributing factor.

Still, it's better than the alternative: not being immunised and a possible patient/transmission vector.



I've heard mixed reviews from both vaccines. I suspect it's the underlying disease. You either get it or you barely feel it right? Anecdotal as fuck, but it seems to me it's the same with the vaccines, and if that's the case, if you had a bad reaction to the vaccine, you probably would've had a bad reaction if you had contracted the disease.

Count yourself lucky.


You mean you suspect it’s like the underlying disease?

Maybe you’ll have a serious and uncomfortable immune response, but since the vaccine can’t proliferate, it will be a relatively brief one at even seventy-two hours.
