Warning: The side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine are extremely unpleasant ⚠

I know this not a popular topic with proponents of the COVID-19 vaccine but truth be told that vaccine was pretty awful with the side effects of the second shot. It took 24 hours to show up beyond a sore arm but when they hit I felt like I was either very hung over or had the once very out of control Lyme disease last autumn. It was a bad next 24 hours, I was miserable well into Thursday but by Friday morning after I took my shower I felt a whole lot better.

Sometimes very unpleasant things are part of being an adult.

I am just glad knowing at this point I am very unlikely to get COVID-19, and that if I do it’s unlikely to severe enough to warrant hospitalization. Sometimes life isn’t painless but still worth living and surviving as one moves forward in the difficulties we all face. While I’m in no rush to ever get another COVID-19 shot and are glad it’s behind me, I’m glad it’s done.
