Report from day after 2nd Moderna shot



Absolutely no regrets whatsoever about getting it though! Fully vaxxed, here I come!

They opened up vaccinations in my state for 12-16 year olds yesterday so I'm taking my son this afternoon.

Feel like ass, don't care!

I got Pfizer and was wiped out for about 36 hours. And then it was like nothing happened. So grateful for my vaccines.

We are considered tourists and thought we would have to wait til natives and residents got their vax.

But one day this week we could get one at the school gym. So yesterday we were vaxed. Our second one is June 2. No matter what, we have to turn up that day or we won’t get it.

Lots of paper work, proof we really live here and four hours later Bingo.

Life is Good. LIG.

to get my son a shot. I took some DayQuil before we left, and at least the weather is nice today.

Second shot, WOW. I got the shot on Friday at 1pm and by Saturday noon was running a 102 degree fever. Just took it easy for the day, doubled up on the ibuprofen, and had a big dinner. I was okay the next day. My sister and sister in law had the same experience.

I was just wondering: are the first and second (Moderna) shots identical in composition?

I've never seen that mentioned anywhere and I was just curious.

Since nobody answered, I googled it myself as I probably should have done in the first place.
