Maybole Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Wife, Sister-in-law and grand-niece all had their second inoculations yesterday. It was Pfitzer, the first jag having been AstraZenica. After the first jag all had minor reactions which cleared by midday the following day. However at 10pm tonight all are still complaining of sore heads, diarrhoea and general feeling of being unwell. I am not sure how common this is. I, myself, had two jags of AstraZeneca, after the first I had minor reactions which cleared by midday the day after, but I cannot remember any reaction from the second.

ThLT Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Mild reactions after a vaccine is normal... however diarrhea not so much. If it gets worse, especially unexplained source of diarrhea, they should go see a doctor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfizer even used here at the village health center on Nov 30. Daughter (health volunteer) got a Pfizer booster (after Sinovac and AZ). Didn't hear about any remarkable reactions from her. Cross vaccinations recommened in other countries too. Like Germany: Moderna after Pfizer. Edited December 2, 2021 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chomper Higgot Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 You’ll find the side effects of Pfizer-BioNTech listed in order of frequency in the attached; diarrhea is not listed so very odd that three people should have it. Perhaps they shared a meal that was not as healthy as it might have been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However a combo of AZ and Pfizer appears to provide the very best protection. Perhaps this was a side effect, or perhaps food poisoning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puccini Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 1 hour ago, Maybole said: Six weeks Six weeks were too short. Originally, a waiting period of 16 weeks was recommended after an AstraZenaca jab before administering the second shot with the same or any other vaccine. Later, the recommendation was reduced to 12 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
