I haven't had it yet (not yet offered in Finland) 

In the past my wife has had bad reactions to the flu vaccine and then refused to take it. But she had next to no reactions from the covid vaccine.  I wonder what the reason is.

Had it already here. No reaction at all....in fact, that day I forgot I even had it.
I also had only a bit of tiredness with the Moderna vaccine first dose, nothing second dose.

My father and I had our booster shot last Weds,I was in bed two days,he had no adverse reaction. We have decided to wait the three weeks before getting our seasonal flu shot. In an article I posted about Portugal they had retested elderly folks after six months and found their antibodies were low 46% or none at all.Since my father is 93 I am hesitant to take him out till he has a chance to increase his immunity.

My father is 90  and has had two doses of Pfizer. He had no reaction to either of them, hardly even a sore arm.

Those who got it wrong, for whatever reason, may feel defensive and retrench into a position that doesn’t accord with the facts.
