Nausea (sometimes severe)

“Fever”

Not able to sleep the night after the shot

Brain fog

(The above side effects are the common ones reported for the Moderna/Pfizer vaccine.)

It appears the worser symptoms tend to occur after the second shot (assuming due to the greater amount of vaccine in the shot).

Please bear in mind however, if you are at high-risk (such as an advanced senior [80/90+ years]), your risks in contracting the virus are HUGE!

Obviously, long-term side effects are unknown due to the recent introduction of the vaccines.
