My wife and I got the second dose yesterday afternoon. We have not had any reaction other than a sore arm, no fever, headaches, body aches or chills, nothing. Many sources of information about the vaccine have said these reactions are good because it showed that the vaccine is doing what it is supposed to do. My question is, being that I did not have any of these reactions is the vaccine not doing it’s thing on my wife and I.

My question is, being that I did not have any of these reactions is the vaccine not doing it’s thing on my wife and I. No, about 30 to 38% will experience the more severe side effects. Everybody will have different reactions. From what I have gathered from my friends and family members that have had it, the Pfizer vaccine seems to illicit the strongest side effects after the second dose. Very few people in my close circle have had anything more than a mild temperature increase, and a really bad headache. Some, like me, also had brain fog. I had bad brain fog 24 hours after the second dose and it lasted about 12 hours....no fever, no real aches except some bad back pain, but I think that was more from digging my dog's grave. We all had the Moderna vaccine. Also, age plays a role in it, apparently. The older you are, the milder the side effects seem to be, at least from what I've read online.

You ever been in the process of building something and had to call someone to help because you need a third hand. With that third arm you will be able to do it yourself.

My question is, being that I did not have any of these reactions is the vaccine not doing it’s thing on my wife and I. You probably got the tail end of the temperature shelf life of the vaccine. No one asks about that or even questions it. They say 12 hours of use after they unfreeze and open up a packet of vaccine. So if they open the pack at7 am, and you get your shot at 6 pm, did you get a good dose or not? Does it decay in potency over time or does it realize, oops 12 hours, I'm nothing but saline now. P.S. you can still get the china flu even if you had the shot.

That may be true because I am older than dirt.
Oh, we had the Moderna also.

My daughter, 26 yo, took the Pfizer vaccine and had flu like symptoms ( 102 fever, chills, body aches) about 12 hours after the second dose. She said they lasted about 8 hours and then she felt fine.
On a side note... My ex-wife received the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine about 4 weeks ago. Her and my daughter were exposed to the virus by my soon to be son-in-law's mom. They were doing wedding planning Sunday before last and were in close quarters looking over each others shoulders at the computer for several hours. That night the mom became ill and tested positive the next day for the China virus. The soon to be son-in-law, his dad, as well as everyone where the mom works have now tested positive for the virus but my ex and my daughter haven't developed any symptoms. Hopefully this bodes well for the vaccines effectiveness.

Not a problem yesterday, as they got this shipment yesterday morning and they had been shooting up all day. Not much of a chance to go stale on the shelf.

Both Pfizer shots here, no reactions. Probably means your immune system is pretty healthy.
