The Oracle has spoken about side effect.
Quoting the relevant info:
With more people getting vaccinated now than ever, it’s only natural to see people raise more questions about the vaccine. To this end, Dr. Fauci, during an interview
with MSNBC a few days ago, listed out two side effects that come about when the vaccine is working.
First and foremost, many people who receive the second dose experience a little bit of soreness in their arms. According to Fauci, this is a good sign.
“The vaccine,” Fauci said, “because you’re giving it in the arm, it gives a systemic reaction. You know that because sometimes after the second dose you feel a little achy, a little chilly, which means the immune system is really getting revved up.”
The side effects after the second dose are typically a bit harsher and can include fever, chills, fatigue, and muscle aches. In some instances, people have reported being out of commission for a full 24-hours. But again, this is a sign that the vaccine is doing its job.
“Things like fever or soreness at the injection site are normal, and actually they indicate that your body is reacting to the vaccine, which is what you want,” immunologist Ellen F. Foxman,
told The Washington Post a few weeks ago. “That’s a good thing.”

I surmised this stuff after getting Moderna Dose #1 two days ago. I was hoping to feel something, a reaction, some proof what I got was OK, was doing the job. So, 7 hours later, as I was about to go to sleep I was pleased when I noticed that my arm was starting to hurt. It actually hurt quite a lot yesterday, all day. Today, about 40 hours after the shot, it still hurts, but WAY less. I was feeling some fatigue some of the time and a chill for a few minutes, but wasn't sure if it was sleep deprivation or the inoculation. I checked my temperature a few times, but the highest was 98.3F.
