Sure thats fine. I just want to ease some of the apprehension (which is valid given the mistreatment of our people by the Healthcare system) and get my folks out here vaccinated and safe.
If you do combine it title it something like "Sound off if you received the COVID-19 vaccine." Or something like that.
If you do combine it title it something kike "Sound off if you received the COVID-19 vaccine." Or something like that let others be able to add to it.
I was a little nervous today and after the shot every little thing I noticed I was like dam is it the vaccine. I calmed down and had no issues but a sore arm lolWanted to lead by example cause I care about the health and safety of my beautiful black people.
If my dick falls off in the next few days I may or may not tell you all.But in all seriousness it went smooth and I am having no issues.
28 days from now the second dose then 2 weeks after this pandemic will be over for me. ( I still will mask and social distance though)
Yeah the sore arm is common with most vaccines. It happens to me with the flu vaccine every year
Yeah its been about 24 hours since I received the vaccine and I only have mild shoulder soreness where the needle stuck me. Very common with any vaccine.
No issues.
No issues.
That is all I have had myself. Now I am just being extra careful and isolating until I at least can get 50% protection in about two weeks
great post i will soon receive one as well. Good to see folks following up afterwards like this. I get the flu shot every year so my fear level is low but I do understand the skepticism of others. One thing I do know, is that un vaccinated folks are catching this Covid-19 shit on a daily basis and some dying from it at record numbers. The choice is between the devil you know and the one you're not so sure about. hmmm?
At the rate of infection it will only be a matter of time before exposure. If fam are 40 and over it is best to get the vaccine because at least you can guarantee not having a sever case.great post i will soon receive one as well.

Exactly. 3-4k dying daily and yet you have people still trying to debate this shit.
Brb
My decision to get the vaccine was simple. I had questions about the vaccine just like anyone else and was very nervous. But I could not live in fear anymore.
Not being able to be around my friends and family was no way to live. Being locked up in my house not able to travel or do anything is not living. Might as well be locked up

I don’t think that is true
Oh, I'm sorry. I was told that by a medical doctor who got the vaccine and has been practicing for 22years. I'll defer to him. But thanks for contributing.
Is he telling you to take Tylenol to prevent pain?
Yes, he said he took extra strength tylenol round the clock for 24 hours.
Why would you need to take Tylenol?
There is no pain associated with taking the vaccine
It could definitely cause soreness of your shoulder mine is about a 3 out of 10 pain that has not gotten worst. But that happens after my flu vaccines so this is nothing special. But Tylenol can help with pain.
Be safe I think it will go well for you.
I assume jag means to reduce fever as a side effect
Maybe and maybe not though because I would tell my patients to use Tylenol if they had pain with the injection. I would also tell them to use it if they had a fever like you are saying.
Anyway it goes as long as he is safe and does well is all we care about.
Acetaminophen’s effects on vaccines - Vital Record
Many think over-the-counter fever reducers prior vaccines disrupt the immune response. A Texas A&M College of Nursing nurse provides some insight.

That’s why I question the pain portion. Pain from a vaccine is due to inflammation and Tylenol is not good at reducing inflammation but more of a fever reducerMaybe and maybe not though because I would tell my patients to use Tylenol if they had pain with the injection. I would also tell them to use it if they had a fever.

Yeah Tylenol is a mild pain reliever it works more centrally at the brain to prevent the perception of pain. It is also an antipyretic like you are saying, but can be used for both.
My arm is better today. Still feel heavy and sore but seems to be going away
I think you are going to do well
His doctor told him to take Tylenol. You can't take that as everyone should and he's probably wrong assuming that too. Maybe Jagu is up in the doctors office tearing up after shots. Doctor don't want to see him complaining about his arm hurt and asking should he come in for a check up.
My friend has taken the vaccine and he's been ok since last Friday. He's on call non stop today until Sunday and had no problem.
Nah, Nigerians are built for pain. As I said my friend got the vaccine and he's on call for 3 days. No complaint what so ever.His doctor told him to take Tylenol. You can't take that as everyone should and he's probably wrong assuming that too. Maybe Jagu is up in the doctors office tearing up after shots.

So the dirt in Nigeria gives black people anti pain perception powers? Did the same doctor tell you that too?
What kind you taking?
I don’t know yet. My wife is arranging it. She works for a doctor and that’s why we qualify.
