This is the only side effect of the coronavirus vaccine that Dr. Fauci is worried about – BGR

  • Pfizer and Moderna coronavirus vaccines have not been found to cause dangerous side effects.
  • Dr. Fauci is due to receive his second dose of coronavirus vaccine in two weeks and said the only side effect he is worried about is a painful arm.
  • After the first dose, Fauci said the side effects he experienced were not “serious at all.”

Dr. Anthony Fauci, along with nearly 2 million Americans, received his coronavirus vaccine last week. And, like most people who received the vaccine, Fauci said the only side effect he experienced was a painful arm.

“The only thing I had was maybe six to 10 hours after the vaccine, I felt a little pain in my arm, which lasted maybe 24 hours,” Fauci said before noticing that it did not last long . Beyond that, Fauci said he had not experienced any other “harmful effects.”

Fauci’s experience with the vaccine is not unusual and that is why there is so much optimism around the COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. Remember that none of the vaccines have been shown to cause serious side effects during clinical trials. Moreover, in cases where volunteers reported adverse symptoms – such as headaches or muscle aches – the symptoms usually disappeared within 24 hours.

The coronavirus vaccine program requires two doses three weeks apart, and with Fauci’s second dose now just two weeks away, the White House coronavirus working group is not worried about anything except the potential for more pain in his arm.

“Maybe when I get the impulse, I might feel a little painful,” Fauci said in an interview with CNN at begining of the week.

While cases of patients receiving severe allergic reactions have been reported, early indications suggest that such people tend to have a history of allergies.

For example, said Dr. Hossein Sadrzadeh – who has a severe allergy to shellfish – New York Times that his blood pressure had risen and that he had anaphylactic shock after receiving the vaccine. Before going to the emergency room, Sadrzadeh used an EpiPen on himself.

Sadrzadeh was discharged quickly and, according to reports, is doing perfectly now.

time add:

Following the initial cases that accompanied the Pfizer photos, the CDC advised that Pfizer and Moderna vaccines may not be suitable for people with a history of anaphylaxis to the ingredients in both injections. Anaphylaxis, which usually occurs within minutes of exposure to a trigger, can affect breathing and cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, which can be life-threatening.

However, the CDC still recommends that people with less severe allergies receive the vaccine. The only qualification is that they are encouraged to wait 15 minutes after the injection just to make sure everything is fine.

It is worth noting that the lack of severe side effects is not the only reason why Pfizer and Moderna vaccines can eventually defeat coronavirus. Equally important is that both vaccines have been shown to be about 95% effective in preventing someone from coming down with coronavirus, an impressive figure that has taken many researchers by surprise.

Finally, it is worth noting that the development of an effective coronavirus vaccine is only half the battle. The other battle is to persuade most Americans to take it, which must happen to gain the herd’s immunity and prevent future outbreaks. If all goes according to plan, Fauci believes that we may be able to engage in normal daily activities by June 2021.
