COVID-19 VACCINE AND OLDER ADULTS

Can the vaccine make people sick?
Spivak: You cannot get COVID-19 from this vaccine. It’s more likely people may experience side effects after receiving the second dose of the vaccine. Side effects are more commonly reported among younger people and typically occur 12-24 hours after vaccine administration. Side effects include fever, fatigue, headache, and muscle aches. This reaction is your body’s immune system mounting to the virus and your immunity building. Tylenol or ibuprofen can help alleviate these symptoms. There’s no other infections or illness you can get directly from the vaccine itself. We hear people say, “I got the flu from the flu shot,” but really this reaction is more likely the exact same phenomenon: it’s your immune system mounting a response to the virus and the vaccine.
Supiano: Data suggests these mild symptoms are less common in older adults but still more common after the second dose. These side effects are minimal and short-lived. It’s well worth receiving the vaccine instead of getting infected with COVID-19.

多餘的話:
老年人身體健康的,不用過慮。
有重病的,打疫苗之前,最好與醫生溝通。
打之前,休息好;打過後,密切觀察;有症狀,及時治療,別挺著。
