Caller said that yesterday he got the 1st dose and he felt fine and his call wasn't an emergency or anything but he has been reading the literature and he guessed that he wanted to ask how long do these side effects will last. He woke up this morning and usually he woke up at 4 every day and he meditates and trains for triathlons, so he was pretty fit, but when he woke up he felt tired and had just a slight muscle pain but he still went and worked out it was just more laborious. He guess if he was feeling any effect the most it was being tired, and he didn't get tired. His question was how long do the side effects last. Patient was informed that tiredness and arm pain were some of the more commonly reported side effects of the Pfizer BioNTech Covid-19 Vaccine. The safety evaluation of participants was still ongoing. Participants were asked about local and systemic events, and use of fever reducing medication after each vaccination. Participants continued to be monitored for non-requested adverse events, including serious adverse events up to 6 months after the last vaccine dose. Among the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine recipients, mild-to-moderate pain at the injection site within 7 days after an injection was the most commonly reported local reaction, with less than 1% of participants across all age groups reporting severe pain. In general, local side effects; the ones you get on the arm where you got the shot (such as injection site redness and injection site swelling) were mostly mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved within 1 to 2 days. Side effects that you may experience throughout the rest of your body; (systemic side effects) including fever and chills were observed with the first 1 to 2 days after vaccination and resolved shortly thereafter. COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you from getting COVID-19. You may have some side effects, which are normal signs that your body is building protection. These side effects may affect your ability to do daily activities, but they should go away in a few days. Side effects after your second shot may be more intense than the ones you experienced after your first shot. These side effects are normal signs that your body is building protection and should go away within a few days. These side effects usually start within a day or two of getting the vaccine. Side effects might affect your ability to do daily activities, but they should go away in a few days. Call the vaccination provider or your healthcare provider if you have any side effects that bother you or do not go away."
