I’ll be interesting to see what efficacy of the newer vaccines will be like with this new variant.
Got my annual covid + flu combo pack 2 weeks ago. I got shit to do, so anything that can help me avoid a bug, or reduce infection severity, is a plus.
My combo is today. How we're your side effects from the vaccine? I've mostly been fine with them but last combo knocked me out
I did the combo on Saturday afternoon. Woke up Sunday with the chills, a pounding headache, and heavy fatigue that lasted for about 6 hours.
Happens every time I do the combo, but it’s worth it to knock ‘em both out and have the immunity.
