Side effects

We’re 48 hours beyond our second dose and both feel fine. The day after I did feel very sleepy in the middle of the day, and took a long, deep nap. I don’t know if that was related, but other than that, I feel amazing. My sister got her second dose yesterday and woke up in the middle of last night with chills, a fever, sweats, and nausea. She was never infected with COVID-19. Again, there isn’t necessarily a correlation there – this is just information. My father became very ill for about six hours, the day after getting his second shot. My sister is young and has no preexisting conditions; my father is 76 and has several preexisting conditions. They experienced nearly identical side effects, of similar severity.
