Feeling sick for a day or two after the vaccine is a small price to pay to avoid long COVID. Some people never recover, see Physics Girl on YT.
Can confirm. Had COVID twice since 2020 and it absolutely fucking sucks. Never felt anything like it.
I don't disagree at all, I should have elaborated in my original comment but I guess I was more yearning for better suited vaccines for people that get hit hard by them. Maybe we could take a smaller dose or different cocktail?
Which one did you take? A lot of people I know who took Moderna got hit hard, but only one person I know who took the Pfizer did. My family all took Pfizer and didn't have any symptoms besides the usual soreness at the injection site.
thus far mine have all been moderna, ha
I had it for three weeks and that was long enough, and for a couple of weeks after still I couldn't enjoy coffee or chocolate or anything with floral flavors. Definitely sucked hard, I can't imagine having it longer
Post viral syndromes are phenomena that have been well documented long before COVID. You can find any number of scientific papers on the matter if you only cared to look.
