21. There are reported side effects for every vaccine.

Thu Dec 3, 2020, 11:32 AM

Dec 2020

Most people don't experience those side effects. The reported side effects of the current Covid vaccines are relatively mild in nature, and last only a short time. Most people don't have even those effects.

As for two-shot vaccines, yes, there are a number of them, as anyone who has young children can verify. The reason for that is that the first shot does not stimulate an adequate immune system response to create a strong immunity. The second shot, often called a "booster shot" stimulates a stronger response and establishes a longer-lasting immunity.

As for the supply issue with the second, timed vaccination, you should discuss that with the provider who will give you the vaccination. Systems will be in place to ensure reliable availability for the second injection, no doubt, whoever your provider might be.

We'll be learning more about these things as the program becomes established.
