Jul. 5th, 2021 10:48 pmWell, I had my second Covid jab yesterday afternoon, 12 weeks after the first. I tried to rebook for a week earlier when I was notified that that was a thing, but it turned out there weren't any available slots any sooner, so I was relieved I hadn't taken the risk of cancelling my original appointment first. Also I learnt there were some walk-in centres open last weekend, but when I checked the details, all the centres in Northampton itself were only offering Moderna or Pfizer to young people, so that wouldn't have been any use to me.
Very different experience this time; no queue to speak of, and virtually no side effects (I felt unusually tired for about three hours yesterday evening, and my arm hurts a little bit where I was injected, but it's a totally different sort of pain from the first jab, and entirely ignorable). Incidentally, the muscle/tendon pain from my first jab took about ten weeks to go away, and I still get twinges if I move it the wrong way. I can't help feeling something weird happened with that injection. Anyway, never mind, it's all fine now.
