Reaction

The Covid shot makes some folks sick And I am in that group, With lots of sleeping, as my mind And body start to droop. I don’t react to flu vaccines Or others that I take, But something in Moderna’s shot Won’t let me stay awake. And so today, stretched on the couch, The price I had to pay Was feeling sick to keep the Covid Virus far away.

I have received the Pfizer vaccines. I haven't had any issue with them. Maybe see if next time you can get it. At least you're boosted. <3

Hope you’ll be feeling much better real soon, Ilene. I’m drawing a line under Covid jabs now… I just wonder if in ten years time we’ll all be on jab four hundred and fifty seven. Much kudos for taking time out to pen this when your feeling less than great… a true professional ye be.

Make sure to take care of yourself Ilene. I got Covid last December after taking both vaccinations. Ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. Prayers for you my friend.
