Hi! How’s everyone doing? I hope you are all safe wherever you are. It’s September 2 today and I’d be having my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine a day after my birthday. TBH, I am quite scared of the serious side effects. But yet again, I don’t have a choice. I need some protection during this novel coronavirus pandemic.

Don’t worry you’ll be okay maybe a bit more tired for a few days.

@freelancermariagrace yes I am fully vaccinated, so is my husband, so is a majority of my family. Other then feeling tired for a few days we all are just fine. No long term affects just the atypical side effects of having your body introduced to new cells.

Side effects are better than dying from Covid.

Do not be afraid most people do not feel anything maybe a little pain in the area of the injection and some headaches, this is also what I felt after the second injection of Pfizer, anyway after one day everything passes .. Good luck

As far as I know, no one has had a bad effect with Pfizer except for AstraZeneca which is so strong.

Yes. I guess it’s normal to feel scared about something you are not sure about. Hope all is well with you, my friend.

I see. My little sister got her Sinovac vaccine two weeks ago. She didn’t experience any side effects. How about your niece and nephew? And thank you for the birthday greeting!

Very few have more than slight side effects so try not to worry. Better to have a few side effects than covid.

Yes, you are right, Judy. We need some protection especially these days. The delta variant is more contagious than other virus strains.

Happy birthday to you! I just had my second dose of Pfizer two weeks ago. I got fever, and headache for some time, but all well now. I agree with you, it's good to have protection despite the side effects. Hope you'll feel well!
