reaction was so mild that I have feared that my immune system just did not respond well enough. After the second shot, just some back muscle aches, short (one day) loss of appetite, and a temp increase in tenths of a degree, not even a whole degree increase. Very mild tenderness in my throat.

No reaction to the first shot.
