Fever, headache, dizziness, and nausea are the most common side effects of the “mix and match” vaccine approach of using Sinovac then AstraZeneca shots, according to the Thailand’s Public Health Ministry.

 

The method of using Sinovac as the first dose, followed by an AstraZeneca shot as the second, 3-4 weeks apart, is now Thailand’s main vaccination practice, which helps shorten the gap between two doses of AstraZeneca, now about 3 months, but with similar levels of efficacy, according to the ministry.

 

As of September 8th, China’s Sinovac vaccine accounts for most of the shots administered, at 15.78 million doses, followed by 16.15 million doses of AstraZeneca, 4.6 million doses of Sinopharm and 917,540 doses of Pfizer-BioNTech.

Derr!   And there I was thinking that 16.15m was bigger than 15.78m !!! ????

Oddly enough I get the same bad side effects when I drink and mix several different types of alcohol. Wine, then beer, followed by whiskey, gin and vodka.

You need to drink beer after hard alcohol.  Never go from beer to the hard stuff.

40 years of alcohol experiences, but am not a Doctor 555

Those are the common side effects of all vaccines!

Wifes 2 brothers had their second (AZ) jab after the SV 3 weeks ago. Brother A had a sore arm for a day after SV and nothing at all after AZ

 

Other brother had all the side effects after both jabs, but subsided after a few days. He went to the local clinic for some meds as he is never sick in the past and was a bit worried. He's back at work planting trees today.

 

Wife and I had SV 2 weeks ago, me, no side effects at all, wife dead arm for a few days.

 

AZ in a weeks time, hope the odds are in our favour. I'd rather be sick from a vaccine than from covid any day.

 

 

[mommysboy]

The incidence of severe blood clotting with AZ is almost insignificant now.

 

I wonder if it has been reported accurately, or perhaps some unannounced tweaking to the formula.

 

Now we know the problems of mRNA vaccines, I reckon AZ might be the best all round option.

Whatever vaccine is available might be the best all round option.

Why? 1+6+1+5 = 13, 1+5+7+8= 21, therefore 15.78 is greater than 16.15.

Maybe that's one of the side effects .... ????

I will wait 12 weeks for the Asteczeneca then take the Chinese Fruit Juice after 3 weeks.

Yes of course, but what I'm really saying I suppose is for people to consider that when they receive AZ they should be aware that they are getting the best.

 

Note: some websites also offer a choice!

Absolutely, at 66, 3 stents, type 2 diabetes I'd be a fool not to be. (not obese before you ask me to lose weight ???? )

Its not a matter of being scared its matter or risk assessment. Chances of death and severe illness are far higher for Covid then for vaccines.

 

Just had my second shot of Pfizer yesterday. Had a bad fever for a day last time. Will see what happens now. So far nothing.

Absolutely. Being in the undisputable high risk category I will continue to take every precaution I can.

 

I am not ready to leave the party just yet!

If mix or not, any vaccine can have side effects.

[WhiteBuffaloATM]

Reward FAR outweighs Risk. Side Effects are Minor & Temporary or Major but Astronomically Rare. Like All Vax & Meds in fact……

[grumbleweed]

I was already suffering side effects from a prescribed med when I had my first AZ, so I thought "bring it on" can't be any worse.

Never been so wrong in my life,

yes the wife had sino first she was ok ..second AZ knocked her off her feet for 2 days after that fine

But you having to take meds means you probably are at risk (dont know what your condition is so i speculate your at risk). IF so then it was right to take the vaccine. I had my private hell, really high fever for a. 1.5 day teeth clattering shaking uncontrollably. But the fever slowly got less and after 36 hours i was ok. Still worth it. But it was annoying.
