On Jan. 23, 2021, Facebook user Siriruk Ch is a Thai woman in the United States, where she shared her experiences after Pfizer NBiotech’s COVID-19 (mRNA) vaccine was completed. Questions and concerns of those waiting to receive the vaccine She told the whole process in detail that …
20 days after the first dose passed, today I received the second dose of Pfizer BioNTech mRNA vaccine. Vaccination School!
Was considered a good day On a day in Chicago, the weather is -14 ° C. It’s a good time for the temperature your mRNA vaccine is fond of.
Today in the vaccination unit The elderly began to receive the first vaccine. While waiting to observe symptoms after injection There was a grandmother aged 65+ reading the vaccine document. And asked the nurse if “Why does the document say that this vaccine is written as Emergency Use? What does it mean?” Will it be dangerous? “” Will there be any side effects? Did the nurse get the vaccine yet? “” It’s better to get it than not “” “If you get the vaccine, will it be positive?” Etc.
Come on, after we play the role of She secretly listened to the villagers within 15 minutes, I could collect questions from Khun Tong Khun Pa, it would be like this.
Registration of emergency And safety?
Vaccines that are registered for emergency (Emergency Use Autherization) I do not think it will be up easily. The main thing is that the manufacturer will have to report results 1. Efficacy 2. Safety of the vaccine. Collected during the vaccine trial period Then 2 months after receiving the vaccine, the vaccine was safe, there were no serious consequences of vaccination. Therefore can apply to the FDA to register for emergencies And will be registered with full dignity Ok number one That is only when the manufacturer has affected the vaccine’s safety that it is safe after 6 months of vaccination. Can be injected first In order to establish herd immunity as soon as possible ** It is important not to skip any steps. In the trial period **
And procedures to achieve safety Will have to pass many levels Since the beginning of animal testing Experiment with people from the tens And increasing the number of people in Phase III (Phase III) to tens of thousands (Pfizer ~ 44,000, Moderna ~ 30,000), which is a wide and diverse distribution of results to ensure that what you get into Your arms are immune in the same direction, that is, a powerful immune defense against disease.
Side symptoms
Commonly found in the trial volunteers are “With flu-like symptoms The symptoms include aches, headaches, muscle pain, chills, joint pain, fever, heat and panic. That’s a good sign that your body is immune to the vaccine. From the results of the trials of both Pfizer and Moderna volunteers, it was found that ~ 50% had primary side effects (as above) after the first dose and 70-80% had symptoms after the second dose. And about 10-20% of them have to take sick leave. Can’t go to work (The symptoms are more severe than the initial symptoms)
And after the vaccine has begun to be widespread It has to be followed by the performance. And more and more side effects from vaccines Now, as far as asking the friend who had already received the second needle Everyone answered with the same voice that the condition was heavier than the first time. Aches, headaches, heat, some people have lymph nodes under the growth. (Near the injection site) A friend said, oh my whole body ache. The other has said I can only hug my girlfriend. # Bad but these symptoms disappear in 48 hours! Then come back delightfully as before
Medication during the vaccination period
If you have a medical condition that requires regular medication Must consult a doctor Before getting the vaccine, for example, someone you know has a medication that must be taken every day due to a genetic disease. He has to consult with the treating doctor first that the drug will not hit the vaccine. To be able to get the vaccine with peace of mind In the radar of the personal doctor
Afraid of having a heavy fever, can you take paraphras and painkillers before vaccination?
No, because taking a fever-reducing pain reliever before injection will affect the immune system function of the vaccine, but in case of fever or pain after vaccination. You can eat medicine to relieve pain and fever.
If vaccinated and tested, will there be a positive result?
I couldn’t find it because this type of vaccine is just genetic material. Not real infection There is no property in sticking to the epithelial cells at all, you can be assured.
If the second needle is injected late, is there any effect?
It is possible, it should be injected with two needles at the specified time. Most vaccines have their rules of not more than a few days late. If it is more than how many days, one needle must be started again. As for the COVID vaccine, there is currently no effect there. Until the CDC’s Department of Disease Control officially announces it again. Sis, don’t be silent that you have received your first dose. It doesn’t matter.
During the trial period, both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were not designed to be vaccinated in one dose. For maximum efficacy, the second dose must be received only. Pfizer claims that the vaccine will protect the maximum after 7 days of the second dose (the time between the first dose). With the second hand spacing 21 days) on the Moderna side is 14 days (the time between the first With the second needle, except for 28 days) If anyone is not sure that they can pick up the second needle within the allotted time Well, don’t get the first dose, Cis. (Right now, there are Johnson and Johnson things that are accelerating the harvesting of a single-dose vaccine. Might get good news soon)
If you have been previously infected Can I still get the vaccine?
Yes, because right now I can’t tell how effective a natural infection is. But getting a vaccine confirms you have a powerful immune system. There are confirmed experimental results in a large group of people. But wait! We should not be vaccinated while we are infected. Should be picked up after recovering Back to normal life only. Don’t be too sour
If you can choose to inject at all or wait for it What should I choose?
We think this question depends on the person. Situation and location We have to assess for ourselves how much we are at risk of getting the infection. Or if we have been infected and how violent we will be, and if asked, we answer without hesitation that we will definitely accept it in unusual situations. And the number of cases of infection People die each day It was answered that We should be immune to infection. That we do not know that good days and bad nights we can stick at any time And if we get stuck We can continue to spread the infection to other people. It spreads to other people and then other people may become fatal. It is another stigma for the rest of our lives. Reliable data and results that we are safe and immunogenic But what we don’t know at all is how long it will last. Do I have to spray every year? I still have to wait and see here.
At the end of the Q&A period, Uncle and Aunt go back to the second needle reception procedure for today.
It’s the same After making an appointment through MyChart since receiving the first dose (We choose Friday in the evening because we have time to deal with the loneliness during Saturday and Sunday) Today we have to confirm ourselves at the check-in point and enter the injection room. There will be a nurse asking how did you go after taking the first dose? And then asked the same question as when taking the first dose roughly, is there any serious allergic history? Have you ever been tested for COVID in 90 days before? The nurse asked which side would you like the injection. We would like to inject the same side Finished, he said Yoo received the second dose, congratulations, and put a sticker “I got my COVID-19 vaccine!” On our work card. As a sign that can be flirted I was vaccinated. # Teasing, we were “Yeah ~~~”, the nurse was “Yeah ~~”
Complete vaccination We still come back to do the lab. The first two hours of symptoms were nothing. Now eight hours have passed and I feel a little hot. And pain at the injection site Not different from the first dose Wait and see symptoms the next morning. All friends said Definitely heavier than the first dose
But has anyone read up to this point?
