I am alive!

You need a new doctor as you should have got an alternate vaccine to the 1st two.

I had AZ, AZ, then Pfizer. AZ one was a night of fever, AZ 2 was a non-event, the Pfizer shot gave me an Arnie sized deltoid + swollen lymph nodes in the 'side boob' region, but basically a non-event.

I think the old school AZ for shots 1 & 2 followed by the new school nRNA Pfizer was the best way to go & after my Pfizer shot, I can see why there is much reluctance to get a vaccine in the USA.

The US government tried to get the AZ shot through the FDA, but Moderna & Pfizer said NO! I remember a time when the FDA was GOLD Standard for the rest of the world, but that was an eternity ago. AZ costs about 3 USD a shot vs 40+USD for the new mRNA type vaccine.

Also noteworthy is that the old school AZ type COVID vaccine gives a mild one half of actual COVID symptoms, while the mRNA vaccines give a mild other half of COVID symptoms. In other words, if the vaccine you got felt like you were going to die, then COVID itself would have killed you.

I still wonder what is shot number 4. The Omicron variant & it's brother seem weak, but there is a chance that such an easily but mild virus could next mutate into something lethal.
