I had my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine last Wednesday. The only difference I noted was that the area around the injection site was tender for a couple of days. That did not happen with the first dose.

I did not experience any chills or a low grade fever that some have reported with the Moderna vaccine. I suspect that we will need to watch the summary reports as they are released.

My wife and daughter are both teachers. I am 65 years old. My wife had covid-19 just before Christmas. Some of her students had a party just before the Christmas break and all the teachers of that cohort of students got covid.

Happily, social distancing and hand-washing apparently prevented my daughter and I from contracting covid-19.

Good job on that. It’s quite difficult to prevent spread in many normal home situations, esp. if the initial spreader becomes contagious before realizing they are ill.

Best wishes for covid-free future to all of you.
