Got my first dose of Moderna yesterday (And I just got my appointment for my next dose. Thanks Riteaid!). Other than maybe some minor chills after getting the shot and a bit of soreness where the shot is, no noticeably big side effects so far. This vaccine ain't poo poo  Seriously though I do kind of wish it were more pronounced so I could be sure it is working

Snowglobe of Doom posted:Don't worry, we're planning on starting up infection outbreaks again here in Australia at some point, perhaps later this year. Our PM has said that we're going to have to open up international travel at some point for vaccinated people but we'll probably durop the mandatory 14 day hotel quarantine and just let people quarantine at home. He also said that this will definitely lead to at least 1000 community infections every week but he doesn't want people to get upset about that or the state governments to close borders, we're just going to have to learn to live with it Because self-isolatiion worked so well at the beginning of the pandemic (it didn't, which is how we ended up with the current system). The healthcare system cannot cope with 1000 infections per week. While we have surge capacity and staff can be diverted from the winter strategy, the length of time severe cases need to spend in hospital would create bottlenecks with those numbers. It's all academic while the majority of our population can't get vaccinated, though. For those outside Australia, we have just held what is believed to be the world's biggest ticketed event since the pandemic stated. 700,000 people attended the Royal Easter Show over 12 days and it certainly had the potential to be a super spreader event but there have been no reports of cases so far. If there still haven't been any cases reported in a couple of weeks, it's likely that other large capacity events will start going ahead more frequently. The PM's statement was pretty tone deaf and may just be the straw which breaks the camel's back. He's squandered all the goodwill the government banked early in the pandemic and is currently under seige. Telling Australians that they'll "just have to get used to" anything is dangerous.

My 1st Pfizer shot was Thursday 11.20. Other than my arm being a bit sore when I do large movements, I have felt a little tired Friday around 6 pm so I had a nap until 9. But that may have been the busy week, not the shot. The doc said to me Pfizer had mostly headache as a side effect and to take ibuprofen if necessary, so I guess it really varies from person to person. A friend at a large Pharma company who got AZ reported being in bed with shivers etc for 12 hours and her company staggering vaccination because roughly half of people are out for at least a day after the shots, so they now organize the jabs to ensure the labs are staffed.

"This would lead to a thousand cases a week" is an explanation of why we won't throw open the borders, not a warning about what is going to happen if we do. quote:"That could be done and return to Australia without the need for a hotel quarantine of 14 days and to be able to do that either at home or under some other less stringent environment than you have with hotel quarantine. This is the PM saying that vaccinated people could travel overseas for essential purposes and upon return, quarantine at home instead of in a hotel. Not that they're going to fling the borders open. I think that's perfectly reasonable. Whatever you think of Morrison he is well aware of the Australian community's tolerance for COVID spread (zero) and there is no chance he'll enact any policies that would lead to it.

This vaccine ain't poo poo This has been more or less my experience with the first Moderna, 3 days later now. In my understanding if you were infected with COV19 previously asymptomatic or otherwise and have recovered, and get vacc, then the vacc side effects kick your rear end. If you feel relatively little effect its because you didn't have COV19 in your system at all for your body to be immunized against; as far as I understand. So it's very good that you don't have symptoms to the vaccine, it means you successfully quarantined yourself.

21 hours after Pfizer #2, and I'm feeling it pretty hard. Joint aches, restlessness, a nasty headache, and even a little nausea. #1 did nothing to me other than some weird joint pain in my fingers that went away after a couple of days. Uuuuggghhh. Still better than having COVID, for sure, but I'm glad I scheduled this for right before a weekend. Edit: I'm mid-40's and definitely haven't had COVID previously.

I'm approaching 48 hours out from the second Pfizer dose and things are getting back to baseline, just a little bit of muscle pain and some flashes of a headache. The day after was pretty rough for me with a fever/headache/general fatigue. (I'm a ~30 year old guy.) I think the 15-18 hour post-vaccine window was the worst but that might also be because it woke up me and kept me from falling back asleep. It did feel weirdly relieving to have a fever without any of a runny nose/sore throat/upset stomach. I only had a little bit of soreness near the injection site the day after the first shot, but it sounds like there are also a decent number of people don't have many problems with either one. I had expected my symptoms to be a little less bad since the Pfizer one is considered to have less bad side effects than the Moderna one, but this paper http://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2021.5374 says that people reporting non-injection site side effects from the second doses are 64 and 75% for Pfizer/Moderna respectively, which doesn't seem like a very big gap.

I've had a subtle but def noticeable metallic taste in my mouth since getting Moderna part deux yesterday afternoon, and finally decided to Google it this morning to see if it's related. I guess it is, which makes me feel better that it's not just me.

It's wild that people all over the place are experiencing what its like to have mild opiate/benzo/alcohol withdrawals. Everyone should be vaccinated and a little discomfort is no big deal.

So my second dose of moderna I felt nothing in the beginning, but much like an idiot who eats a whole bag of edibles and wonders why nothing is happening, I was wrong. 101 degree fever for the whole night, sucked rear end. Now it's the morning and it barely feels like anything happened, just some minor joint pain and weakness. Very odd vaccine.

The article supports this happening: 1. Been infected previously, thus strong immune response. It specifically states this claim can't be made: 2. Strong immune response, thus been infected previously. It doesn't claim or particularly support this: 3. Weak immune response, thus not been infected previously. That's my reading.

Also, with AZ (the vaccine the US is stockpiling millions of but not using), the first shot seems to be the one that provokes a stronger reaction than the second.
