Heads up: If you’re planning to get the new COVID-19 vaccine when it comes out, the CDC says you aren’t going to feel all that great afterward. A CDC advisory panel put out the warning in hopes of letting people know ahead of time what to expect.
It’s important to put the caution out now, the committee said, to prevent people from not wanting to come back for the second of the two-dose vaccine. “’We really have got to make patients aware that this is not going to be a walk in the park,’ Sandra Adamson Fryhofer, a physician representing the American Medical Association, told the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices in a meeting Monday.”
Common side effects reported in the COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials are muscle aches, low-grade fever, fatigue, headaches and pain at the injection site, The Hill said.
