Am not aware of any case of meningitis caused by any of the vaccines. You are likely to experience a few days of mild fever, headache, fatigue, and shoulder pain for about 2-3 days after the "jab". If you do not return to baseline, in a few days, notify your doctor.

See: https://www.healthcarefinancenews.com/news/28-year-old-volunteer-astrazeneca-covid-19-vaccine-trial-dies. A man who was in the control portion of vaccine trials in Brazil received meningitis vaccine and died. He did not receive the COVID 19 vaccine.

There is no reported case of Meningitis from the J&J COVID vaccine. The symptoms you are experiencing are quite common after receiving a dose of the vaccine. Some rest and Tylenol should be all that you need!
