I was pretty crook the day after my first AZ, second was a non-event.

We're all different (thankfully for the rest of you that are not me), my AZ both times was a very mild headache for a few hours and a very mild sore arm around the ***** site for about half the night. My booster was pfizer and no effect other than a more pronounced sore arm for about 30 hours.

Haven't started glowing in the dark yet or growing an extra body part or setting rfid scanners off.

Pfizer gave me a much sorer arm, tiredness and some fever but it's not really anything worth worrying about.

I also got #3 as Pfizer, which works because it looks like it's more protective against breakthrough infections by Omicron than AZ is.

I never really had a reaction to either AZ dose but the Pfizer did knock me around for a couple of days - a doctor we know who'd had AZ x2 and Pfizer x 1 said that she got the same reaction from the Pfizer.

Nope not for me, maybe all the shots were distilled water?

I was given to understand( by the Media (?) )that AZ was the poor cousin & had no long term protection. More ballcocks it may seem.

I've got my second Pfizer next week. Its been a process as with neurological condition, I'm at risk of a neurological response that isn't good. So wasn't able to have vax till recently. Have had to go through a specialist vax clinic. If have that neurological response, it will be awful but temporary of up to 3 months. I hope I don't as really concerned. Was ok after first as already live with the standard symptoms as my daily life. I was however, unable to get myself about the house for a few days as a wheelchair user. And needed assistance transferring. My jab arm was so dead and wouldn't do much.
Not keen for that again but hope dose 2 is mostly smooth as well.

I'm predicting new "words" for 2022 of vaxed, vaxxed, and vaxxxed where the x denotes how many covid shots one has had.

2024, vaxxxxxxed

I have had both of my AZ jabs and thankfully I had zero side effects.
I will be having a booster jab soon which I understand will be a different breed of vaccination and hopefully that will be just fine as well, Either way I would rather a sore arm or feel crook for a couple of days than catch full blown COV19 by not having the jab.
