It’s on the government’s website——they won’t let pilots fly for 48-72 hours after vaccination due to “health concerns”. If it’s so “safe”, then why the concern?

https://www.faa.gov/coronavirus/guidance_resources/vaccine_faq

The Federal Air Surgeon determined that FAA medical certificate holders may not act as pilot in command, or in any other capacity as a required flightcrew member, for 48 hours after each dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, Novavax, and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. The Federal Air Surgeon made this determination after evaluation of available medical information about these COVID-19 vaccines and potential side effects. As a result of this determination and consistent with 14 CFR § 61.53(a), each person subject to part 67 who receives the vaccine must wait 48 hours after each dose before acting as pilot in command or as a required flightcrew member.

Re: 76 - No, you can’t do that.

LOL. There are possible vaccine side effects for a couple days after vaccination, including, but not limited to, headache , fatigue , soreness. This not uncommon for any vaccine.
