Nosey Friday ! Health Poll: Flu Shot after-effects ?

[Article Accelerator]

Basically nothing, just barely noticeable soreness at the injection site for perhaps 36 hours.

absolute zero this time

Not a thing… nurse was so good I didn’t even feel the jab!

[RgrF]

Didn't feel a thing.

Sore arm. I always get a sore arm and this one was no different.

I might have been a little extra fatigued but it's impossible to say whether it was from the flu shot or just another random day that I felt a little extra fatigued.

Well, I read that wrong!

I thought the poll was asking about the booster shot.
That gave me na sore arm for a day or so.

The flu shot gave me 'nuttin honey'

Covid is the new flu. Soon, flu will be a minor annoyance like a cold is now and a cold will be downgraded to a simple sneeze.

Although I know you were joking (mostly at least), I have to say... Not really.

The flu still sucks and will never be a minor annoyance. Several years ago when I didn't get a flu shot I got the flu. I was quite a bit sicker than I was with Covid. It was a solid two weeks of being out of commission with a fever and feeling crappy and then another four weeks after that before my lungs felt normal again.

I was half joking and half serious. I think Covid is here to stay and will take the top spot on the podium, downgrading the others by one place. Just my 2 cents.

Haven’t gotten it yet, usually feel crappy for a couple of days with a sore arm.
Was supposed to go last week, but ended up getting booster shot. That was worse than the first two.
