Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Explained to patient that the most commonly reported side effects, which typically lasted several days, were pain at the injection site, tiredness, headache, muscle pain, chills, joint pain, and fever. Of note, more people experienced these side effects after the second dose than after the first dose, so it is important for vaccination patients to expect that there may be some side effects after either dose, but even more so after the second dose.
