Long post-COVID vaccination syndrome (LPCVS) is an increasingly recognized disease that occurs after SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations and lasts >4 weeks.
Second, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A) can occur after COVID-19 vaccination in a previously infected patient and can manifest as respiratory distress. In cases of respiratory failure after the vaccination, a previous SARS-CoV-2 infection should be considered.
Side effects of coronavirus vaccination
Very common side effects in the first day or two include: having a painful, heavy feeling and tenderness in the arm where you had your injection. feeling tired. headache, aches and chills.
This is long-term immunity.
An effective COVID-19 vaccine will produce a strong, long-term, adaptive immune response. It might stimulate B cells and specific antibodies or T cells or a combination of both.
Some people, especially those who had severe COVID-19, experience multiorgan effects or autoimmune conditions with symptoms lasting weeks, months, or even years after COVID-19 illness. Multi-organ effects can involve many body systems, including the heart, lung, kidney, skin, and brain.
The TGA report that most side effects are mild and go away within a couple of days. AusVaxSafety is tracking whether people experience side effects after COVID-19 vaccines. Their data shows that in Australia: over half the participants report no side effects (around 55%)
Symptoms of myocarditis or pericarditis typically appear within 1 to 5 days of vaccination. People who experience any of these symptoms after having an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine should seek prompt medical attention: chest pain. pressure or discomfort in the chest.
Most children who catch the COVID-19 virus have only a mild illness. But in children with MIS-C , after infection with the COVID-19 virus, the blood vessels, digestive system, skin or eyes become swollen and irritated. MIS-C is rare. It most often happens within 2 months after having COVID-19 .
Study finds no increased risk of rare neurological events after covid vaccination | BMJ.
Rarely, vaccination has been associated with GBS. The first epidemiological association was found in 1976, when an increased GBS risk was observed among persons who received the swine flu vaccine. Subsequently, an increased GBS risk was found after recombinant zoster vaccination.
Use an ice pack or cool, damp cloth to help reduce redness, soreness and/or swelling at the place where the shot was given. A cool bath can also be soothing. Drink liquids often for 1-2 days after getting the vaccine. Take an over the counter pain reliever unless you have any specific contraindication.
Common symptoms of myocarditis include: chest pain or discomfort, or a feeling of tightness in the chest. shortness of breath, either at rest or when active, or in certain positions, such as lying down. unusual tiredness.
Myocarditis and pericarditis after the COVID-19 vaccine have been reported more in young adult males and are most likely to occur after the second dose of mRNA vaccines. The presentation is mild and the majority of the patients recover either completely or partially.
The risk of myocarditis or pericarditis associated with SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccines is very low and the data are limited. The reports available to date show a preference for male adolescents and young adults, more often after the second dose, usually within several days after vaccination.
In multivariate logistic regressions analyses, the second dose of the Moderna vaccine was associated with a significantly higher risk of side effects than both the second dose of Pfizer and the single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Pfizer-BioNTech Company has reported many COVID-19 vaccine reactions & adverse events, including some local reactions such as redness, swelling, and pain at the injection site and some systemic reactions such as fever, fatigue, headache, chills, vomiting, diarrhea, and new or worsening muscle/joint pain.
Common side effects after COVID-19 vaccination include, pain, swelling, and redness at injection site, fever, tiredness, headache, chills, muscle or joint pain, or nausea.
There have been rare cases of inflammation of the heart (myocarditis) reported after COVID-19 vaccination. Most people who had this recovered following rest and simple treatments.
The most common complication, stroke, was reported in 39.9% of cases, followed by 15% of MI and pulmonary embolism each, and myocarditis in 11% of the cases with any dose. The remainder 19.1% of the events comprised 43 cases of thrombosis, and 13 cases of pericarditis after any dose.
How many doses for Moderna? And how far apart? Despite their similarities, the Moderna doses have more than three times the amount of mRNA material (100 micrograms), compared to Pfizer (30 micrograms). The dose spacing is also different: three weeks apart for Pfizer and four weeks for Moderna.
Recovery from long COVID varies. Some symptoms can improve quickly and others last longer. The chances of having long-term symptoms does not seem to be linked to how ill you are when you first get COVID-19. People who had mild symptoms at first can still have long-term problems.
Emerging evidence and patient testimony is showing a growing number of people who contract COVID-19 cannot shake off the effects of the virus months after initially falling ill. Symptoms are wide-ranging and fluctuating, and can include breathlessness, chronic fatigue, “brain fog”, anxiety and stress.
