Second jab jitters

As the COVID jab has become available, there have naturally been some concerns about side effects, and if they will be worse the second time around, in particular. Side effects are possible after any medical procedure, and in this case these may be a sign that your immune system is doing its job. Luckily, for most people, they are not serious or long-lasting. There is no reason that they will be any worse with subsequent doses of the vaccine, and a lack of them doesn’t mean that the vaccine hasn’t worked, either. So, stop worrying and get your jabs!
