CoVid vaccination should be perfectly safe for you. You will likely feel safer to get the shot in a mediacal center or Dr's office rather than at a drug store, drive thu or stadium. Individuals remain for 15 minutes and can be treated with an anti histamine should they develop any severe allergic symptoms.
