Even with the SA variant the vaccine gives your immune system a head start so it can defeat the virus without resorting to a Cytokine storm, hence preventing severe illness.

Originally posted by Scruff View PostI had the Pfizer. Side effects were clearly evident and lasted 5 days.
Headaches - felt like a too tight crash helmet (3 occasions)
Lightheadedness / Dizziness (1 occasion, after 2 days)
Visual migraine (4 occasions in 5 days - I haven't had 4 of them in the last 2 years).
Sore arm wasn't a side effect, but expected.
I'd have it again (Pfizer), in the blink of an eye.

Originally posted by Scruff View PostI did have a look at the that, but when I asked my GP practice the GP didn't offer any counsel.
While GPs and other healthcare staff are suppose to do it they don't have the time.

Originally posted by ladymuck View PostDid you report the side effects? There's the yellow card system that anyone can use to report medicine side effects. It's well worth doing as it all helps towards building up information about how people react.

If you think that it is some government conspiracy, then I have no words. Who is benefiting from the pandemic?

I had the AstraZeneca one on Friday, so just hope I don't come into contact with the South Africa version then!
Felt a bit shivery and lousy for a day or so. Nothing a few paracetamol couldn't take care of.

Lots of stories about the South African variant in the UK press, quite surprised they haven't picked up this little story about the British variant. Even though all the people had their second jab on the 25th January, 14 residents of an old peoples home still got the British variant albeit asymptomatic so they may have caught it between the 1st and 2nd jabs:

Cheers. I found the "yes get it anyway" info but not ideas on if it would worsen side-effects. Nothing to suggest you shouldn't get yourself jabbed but interesting.
