All COVID-19 vaccines have pretty much the same side effects. Pain at the injection site is the most common, usually mild sometimes with swollen lymph gland in the armpit on the side of the injected arm. Less commonly headache, fever, and/or feeling poorly for 1-4 days. Serious or dangerous side effects are extremely rare. Potential side effects almost never are a good reason to avoid vaccination.

As with the other corona virus vaccines there is discomfort at the injection site and the potential for muscle aches, elevated temperature, chills and flu like symptoms that typically resolve within 24 hours

Agree with Dr. Fowler: Do not let the risk of mild side effects keep you from getting the vaccine. You will do yourself and your society good by taking the vaccine. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
