Great news. Glad you haven’t experienced any complications/side effects. Thank you for the first person view of things.

My 86 year old mom has had a couple of heart attacks and is generally just slowing down. She seems to have had a reaction to this year’s flu shot that left her lethargic and with aches and pains for close to a week.
Any downside to her getting either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines?

No I dont think so. I would probably (anecdotally) get her the moderna. In our state, there will be an exponential explosion of vaccination next week if Moderna gets EUA. Currently only five hospitals in our state have the super deep freeze technology required. That being said, there have been around 20,000 vaccines given.

With Moderna there I no need for deep cold temperatures. Moderna will be distributed to 188 hospitals next week per governor order. My suspicion is as a matter of logistics Moderna may be the one your mom receives.
