Seems about half of people get very sore arms, we were fine, just slightly sore when you touched it.

Yes but work is hectic and I need my arm

I presume you also got the Pfizer jab?

I might have to plan mine carefully then, just in case I react too.

If you have recently recovered from covid you need to wait at least 30 days before having the jab

Guess it depends on how rapidly you recover. The Discovery advice last week was 10-14 days.

In joburg they turn people away if not 30days.

"come again another day"

Personally 30 days seems correct to me.

Thanks. Registered.

This is a contentious issue. Would it be better not to have the jab if you’ve already recovered and you have build up some resistance naturally? Even if you get it after your first jab and recover, should you have the second?

I’ve no idea, just been thinking about it.

Day 30 and I’m in the queue. Some network issue slowed things down, but it’s moving now.

Just over an hour so far.

 

[Rudolph Hart]

All done. Two and a half hours in total, including the delay at the start. Can’t complain really.

 

[Rudolph Hart]

Just a note on the waiting period - she didn’t want to give me the shot because she thought it needed to be 90 days. She went and checked, and it was all sorted. Apparently it’s 90 days if you were hospitalised, 30 for mild infections.

 

[Rudolph Hart]

Just for the sake of completeness, my side effects from the vaccination (Pfizer) are slightly sore arm; a bit of a headache; and tiredness. I went to bed at least two and a half hours earlier than my usual bed time last night.

First or second jab? Apparently it's the second that nails ya.

First. Don’t depress me - it’s been a shit enough month or two already.

As long as you know to plan ahead for the second one in advance. Similar to drinking a pink drop where it's best to already be sitting on the toilet.
