Has been 30 minutes Moderna, no pain.I'm thinking a LOT of the arm pain (or lack thereof) associated with the vaccines has to do with the shot-giver being careful.

Man that first Moderna shot was painful as all hell for a while starting an hour or two after I got it yesterday. Not sure if I’m just soft or what but I couldn’t even lift my arm last night. It’s better now that I’m taking ibuprofen. No illness or fatigue luckily.
We had an HVAC guy here today ... big dude who was saying he used to play football and his first shot was similarly worse than any hit he’d taken lol.
Nope. This is irritation from the medicine. I'm an expert on shots because my wife is a provider.....I usually get my flu shot in the kitchen and I give her b12 shots all the time, among other things.I'm thinking a LOT of the arm pain (or lack thereof) associated with the vaccines has to do with the shot-giver being careful.
Also from what I've been told it's better to take Tylenol for this.
Be careful because they had some QC issues recently.Sceduled for a J&J vaccine in 6 hours which took 3 weeks to get an appointment from the city. Indicates that 30,000 shots for Wed-Friday in Illinois.
Yeah, but you must be aware of the low platelet count blood disorders which differs from the clot and causes hemorrhage in the brain, which is much worse than the clotting type. My father died from the hemorrhage type.I am on warfarin. Blood clots are happening to women and those under 55.
My blood is very thin, so I should be fine.
I'm assuming you're talking about the mix up with the J&J and AZ vaccines at the plant in Baltimore(i think)?Be careful because they had some QC issues recently.
Has been approx 6 hours after Moderna. Pain is like nothing.
my mother died from an aneurysm.Yeah, but you must be aware of the low platelet count blood disorders which differs from the clot and causes hemorrhage in the brain, which is much worse than the clotting type. My father died from the hemorrhage type.
But that was not related to the vaccines FYI.
That was from the 15M doses they scrapped. They never made it to the final fill stage.Be careful because they had some QC issues recently.
Read about that. This is a US batch manufactured by Johnson& Johnson, not subcontracted, as informed by the personnel I asked. 15 hours after being injected with the vaccine i feel no pain or itching in my right arm. No symptoms or allergic reaction so far.Be careful because they had some QC issues recently.
Just came back from the Tinley Park Convention Center for my J&J shot. Long lines started to form outside when I arrived, luckily I was the 3rd in line. It was raining lightly. About >100 people in line by the time they opened the doors. Military all over the place. Show your appointment and I.D./Drivers License to enter. Military personnel to get your info, etc. and inform you that you're allowing them to give you the vaccine willingly and signature on a MS surface tablet. About 150 chairs to wait for your turn and about >50 people (non-military/nurses) with a table and syringes to give the shot. Barely felt the needle inserted 1" on my right arm. Told to go to another area with about >100 chairs and wait 15 minutes for any adverse reaction or symptoms before exiting. Saw a ambulance waiting near a door just in case. So it took from 9:40am-10:27am. Long lines after I left, still drizzling.
Another area in the building had Moderna shots, 1st and 2nd. Police all over the parking lot and front of the building too.
Partial selfie of me (guy in the black hoodie) 3rd in line for the J&J shot.

I have a question. Why did the CDC never thought of issuing a FLU shot at the same seating as the COVID-19 shot.
we had virtually no flu season this year in Canada. Due to all the lock-downs, masks and social distancing not to mention sanitizing hands and other items, it has stopped the transmission of colds and the flu.I have a question. Why did the CDC never thought of issuing a FLU shot at the same seating as the COVID-19 shot.
Man so sorry to hear that.my mother died from an aneurysm.

I am sure other jurisdictions noticed the same thing.
Without a head to head, blinded comparison, or perhaps some match cohort analysis of real world data, I'd take any conclusions drawn from such ad hoc head to head comparisons with a huge grain of salt.This is approx a month old but I still thought it was interesting.
Moderna vs Pfizer side-effects compared
Apparently Moderna had slightly lower incidence of mild side-effects then Pfizer but slightly higher for the more serious ones.

Flu vaccines are guesses. They guess what strains will be making the rounds next year and make a vaccine for those. So flu vaccines are very hit and miss. They either completely prevent the disease if guessed right or only make the disease more mild if guessed wrong.Why is it I get the distinct impression that a mask is every bit as effective against catching the flu at random in public as a vaccine alone? (of course both is better)
Essentially compared to normal we didn't HAVE a flu-season in the US.
My state is now open to everyone 16+. Got Pfizer dose 1 yesterday after work.
Cause you should have got your flu shot last fall?I have a question. Why did the CDC never thought of issuing a FLU shot at the same seating as the COVID-19 shot.
The most important side effect is that you don't end up in the ICU or the morgue.This is approx a month old but I still thought it was interesting.
