By John L Elliott MS – Getting the New Covid Shot
How I got the New Covid Vaccine. On September 17th, I went to the CVS website and signed up to get the new Flu Quadrivalent vaccine and new Covid XBB.1.5. vaccine. My Journey to avoiding the new SARS-CoV-2 viruses.
At the pharmacy
What happened in the pharmacy, I received the Flu shot in one arm and the COVID shot in the other. Setting my iPhone timer for 15 minutes. I waited 15 minutes to be sure I had no adverse reactions. Thereafter, the rest of my day went fine. I felt good. I went shopping.
Here are vaccines I took.
New Covid and new Flu vaccine
Afterward the next day, I had a little bit of pain in both arms. Much like any other vaccine shot I have taken. As with other vaccines, I took in the past. Decided to take it easy for the next 24 hours. I also picked up some more masks from Home Depot after my shots. Looked online to find out what the possible side effects are. I wrote these side effects in a post here.
One of my friends from high school. Got his shots later in the day.
Update – It is two days and I have no pain in my arms and did not develop any adverse issues.
A Bit Later
Exposed to COVID. I did not get it.
