[mommysboy]

Note this thread deals with mild side effects.  Serious side effects are rare.  I'm not interested in conspiracy theories or wild speculation.

Take-aways:

1. AZ vaccine seems to produce stronger side effects first dose, whereas it's the other way round with the Pfizer.

2. AZ has more reports of milder effects, but this may be age related. (3 in 10 youngsters report some side effect).

3.  Both vaccines are safe.

 

Personally, I found the FT analysis more informative, but I do like the reader's comments in DM.  It's nice to hear real life reports.
