Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

Just this minute heard of 2 more people, neighbours, who have felt rough for 24 hours after their Oxford jab, so that's 3 now I've heard of.

A friend who lives a few houses away phoned. She said they gave her a card with symptoms to look out for that affect some people. I believe she said about 1 in 10.

She felt unnaturally tired. Cold, and nauseous.
She told me another lady nearby was exactly the same within about 5 - 6 hours after the vaccination.

She feels perkier today though, same as my first friend I said about a couple of days ago.

Still haven't heard anything about mine yet.

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

‘Tis done and l have a little card to prove it! I had the Pfizer vaccine. The whole process was effortless and thorough. The nurse said, l would be contacted about the second vaccination.

I feel fine so far. All l wanted after having it done was something really nice and tasty.
So l have just had grilled Clonakilty Black Pudding and tomatoes.

Glad you feel a lot better today after your jab, Frankie.

That sounds about normal for the expected side effects of the oxford one. A couple of days of feeling a bit rough. The Pfizer one has the lowest level of side effects, unless of course you have a history of severe allergic reactions. The Moderna one has been reported as more likely to generate adverse reactions than Pfizer. It's a pity more people can't have the Pfizer vaccine but it does have some complex logistics.

Annie, Are you saying the Pfizer is the better of the two?

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

I was quite happy with the Oxford vaccine. No side effects at all.

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

I've volunteered to help out with the vaccination programme and did my first shift last Thursday ushering people to waiting areas, taking temperatures and making sure their hands are gelled, then directing to the exit after they've had their jab. There were times when people could walk in and after the temperature and gell, could go straight in to see a nurse and get their vaccination - at other times, they'd need to wait a short while. Queuing outside is to tick names off a list and issue a vaccination card and the queues were never more than ten people.
