What It’s Like Getting Both COVID-19 Vaccines

How we felt
Neither my husband nor I had any adverse side effects beyond moderate pain at the site of injection, starting about six hours after getting the vaccine, and lasting for about 24 hours. Other than that, we didn’t get nauseous, sweaty, shaky, feverish, or anything like that. It is worth noting that my husband and I both had COVID-19 back in January. Interestingly, studies have shown that those who were previously infected with the COVID-19 virus were significantly more likely to develop side effects in response to the vaccine – something about the body already being primed to respond to it. We were fortunate that this was not the case for us.
