Okay, I figure we can all whinge on about our experiences for whoever has gotten the jab and give everyone else an idea of what they may experince.

I ended up with the Johnson and Johnson (Janssen) vaccine. I was fine getting the vaccine however about 6 hours later I had a fever and terrible chills through the night. The next morning I had a low grade fever and was extremely fatigued I spent a majority of the day in bed sleeping. After thats it was uphill, some fatigue and lingering sorness at injection site but that's normal for an intramuscular injection. It all rathered sucked but over and done with for now.

I've received tons of vaccines over the years, probably way more than most given my field of work. Weirdly enough, I never really get any side effects. I can't recall getting na vaccine that made me tired/sick or anything.

So you went in feeling healthy and fine then took the shot and was sick as a dog.
Mmmmmm..interesting.
" done with .....for now" ...yes mate , but in 3/6/12 months....long term ...
A friend of mine took the same ( Jansen) in the U.S. about two weeks ago and lost his sense of taste. Hasn't returned since.
As far as Johnson and Johnson....not a fan .
Hope you stay well.

The usual drivel from Route66... You do understand that it's quite common to have slight aches and pains after a vaccine, especially a traditional one (like JJ)?

I've had various strange vaccinations but nothing can hold a candle to my Pfizer experience. I still get bizarre chest sensations since receiving it. I think it was the right thing to get it and would do it again but the reaction and fatigue was intense. These strong reactions seem to be more limited to younger age as an immune response, according to the medical personnel I spoke with.

I feel fairly confident that I'm as protected as one can be now though and rejecting a pfizer vaccination traveler seems least likely of all, excluding China and satellite pressure campaigns.

Quite similar- terrible headache for a few days, night sweats and loss of appetite, but all manageable though fairly unpleasant.

It sound like you're all getting a little taste of what Covid-19 is like, and then it's all over. Many people who got the real thing ended up feeling like you did for weeks. Many didn't even get that lucky.

A couple of days feeling a bit rough is a good trade to getting this thing bad.

Couldn't agree more. Blessed to have it.

I had the first shot of Sinovac last Friday. I was immediately dizzy when I stood up, look a seat for 30 minutes 'observation' and felt a little nauseous with a dull headache. This all past fairly quickly and no sign of any other side effects. (yet)

Do you feel any new sympathies for the worker class or hatred of landlords?
