Has the Vaccine.

[Eric70]

Just a quick note. My wife and I both had the Oxford Vaccine on Wednesday, without problem. However, we were both quite ill on Thursday with flu like symptoms, raised temperature and generally feel very unwell. Thankfully, the following day we woke up absolutely fine. It wasn't a high price to pay for some protection against this Covid Virus!!!

Heard it's very common. Glad you got the shots!!

My second is on the 19th (Pfizer)

I got my second Pfizer shot on this past Friday. The day of the shot it was much like the first one, only slight discomfort at the injection site. As the day went on not much different. Saturday was different. By noon (21 hours after the shot) I started feeling fatigued. I laid down for a fitful nap and felt as though I had the flu when I crawled out of bed. All my muscles ached, then my skin hurt, and before bed a slight headache developed. This morning all is well. A small price to pay for the horror stories I have heard and read about with full blown C-19 cases.

My sentiments exactly.

I had the Oxford vaccine last Wednesday also. I had a very tender arm the next day (as if it was badly bruised) and developed a stiff neck on Friday. Today, Sunday, the arm is much less tender. I had no raised temperature, and no 'flu symptoms. It just goes to show how we all differ so much in our response to this virus or its bits (in the case of the vaccine). John
