So on Monday I had my first Covid-19 jab, it was Pfizer and I have NOT had any issues from it. My arm was sore where the jab happened but other then that I’m fine.
The reason I wanted to blog about this was all the misinformation flying about mainly from anti-vaxxers.
The only side effects I have ever heard about is a temperature and a day or two feeling fluey which I feel is a fair effect from a potentially life saving injection.
People like me who are antibody deficient may very well not respond to the vaccine as wanted, hopefully our T-cells will produce some response but as we do not make our own antibodies we will not get the full protection others may so it is important that everyone offered the vaccine has it to increase herd immunity and help protect those who can’t have it or won’t respond to it as well.
I’ve had to reassure many people that the jab is fine and feels just like a flu jab. I was in and out of the centre in 25 minutes.
So if your offered it PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have it.
