Got my second yesterday. No side effects on the first but the second one is slowing me down. Heavy headed, chills, aches. Tylenol is helping. And I’m not complaining, just so happy to be 9 to 13 days from being well protected 🙂

Congratulations to both of us.

First dose of Pfizer today. 2nd shot on 4/27.

My arm is feeling sore, but otherwise all is well.

I'm stoked too.

After your second shot, you'll feel better knowing that, even though you still have to mask, you'll be protecting others. If some yahoo comes up to you and asks if you're wearing a mask because you're living in fear, just say "I'm wearing it to protect you".

And I already say that about the flu shot. "I don't get it for me. I get it for you."

Yeah, I'm that guy.
