I hadn't checked the national (English) data for a while - encouraging to see that the uptick is now heading down again: coronavirus.data.gov.uk I had a horrendous headache after Moderna booster, plus a high fever, but I had another infection at the same time which didn't help. |

A little bit under the weather here with slight sore shoulders after our pairs of jabs but nothing serious.

Just back from vaccine top-up (my fourth Pfizer and this one bi-valent). I’ve been progressively worse after each of previous jabs

My wife and I had our Covid + flu yesterday. She's feeling pretty rough, I'm feeling under the weather and a bit achey with a sore injection site and armpit. Still, not as bad as the first AZ vax which wiped us out for 3 or 4 days.

First AZ wiped me out Nothing at all from second AZ, Pfizer and 2 modernas that have followed. It's all very random isn't it |

I’ve had no ill effects from any vaccines so far, got my booster & flu jag this Wednesday, fingers crossed for more of the same.

The variation in side effects (or lack there of) seems quite variable. I know many who have said no issue while others knocked sideways for a couple of days. My experience has been somewhere in the middle. For reasons unknown my wife had her covid and flu three weekends ago and really struggled. She got her jags before my parents and also her own Mum is still waiting for a home visit. I received my invite on Friday but I couldnt find a free slot until later in November. I have a 10k on 27 November so booked in for later in that day - just in case |

Someone my husband knows had a really bad reaction to having the covid+flu jabs and ended up in hospital because of it. 😳

I had both at once, no reaction than an achy arm.
