Your tetanus antibodies are being kept at a high level by the constant challenges you are receiving from your work.
Covid jab - is it compulsory?

You need to sign up as a blood donor. That will eliminate your fear of needles.
I believe it is only six percent of the eligible population that regularly donate.
I regret that I started so late.

Hopefully. Will we ever really know? Not a lot of plain speaking honesty about in either camp.

I thought the some of the worst affected places in the world were the fattest! And personally I have had my two vaccinations, so that if I do get it (which I hope I won't), I will hopefully bounce back pretty quickly and not be hospitalised.

I'm hearing a fair few reports of the booster knocking older people about, especially ones that were not affected much by the first two.Had both jabs here. Waited five minutes after the first one and thought it so ridiculous I just drove home. Had the second jab since, also the flu one, and drove home straight away after both. No ill effects. I am 81.
Covid affects the brain. Most who haven't had the jab have subclinical covid as evidenced by their subsequent behaviour and some posts on here.
Not trying to create alarm, just a heads up.

You're probably part of the placebo group.Had both jabs here. Waited five minutes after the first one and thought it so ridiculous I just drove home. Had the second jab since, also the flu one, and drove home straight away after both. No ill effects. I am 81.

My 85 yr old mother did but she was bad with the other two as well. Did you have the same vaccine each time?

Have the flu jab at the same time while you are worrying about one you they stick you with tother and vice versa in your other arm.

I'm quite happy to have a third jab but it will be with the Pfizer one or not at all.
Sore arm for 36hrs from a Moderna jab. Felt tired the following night, but that might have been 2 pints and a nice meal in a local Pub with some family...
If you had AZ, AZ, then you will be offered Fizzy or Moderna.

I wasn't really watching, but I am pretty sure I saw a Doctor on GB News news say if you have three jabs of the same type your body could become resistant to them and not have an antibody response, so it is a good idea to have the third of a different type. I am still waiting for my third (Oxford Astra Zenica for the first two).

I was worse with that , the other two were Oxford

I think it meant the body might, but not proven, produce antibodies to the adenovirus carrier for AZ preventing it from eliciting COVID antibodies, which is why the third jab is ideally Pfizer.
This virus won't be beaten by whimpering about needles, vaccine shyness or feeling a little poorly after a jab. Be bold!
10 days to my booster, 24 to new higher levels of immunity that should last a year or more, I cannot wait.
The other week we gave someone their second dose, it had taken him eight attempts for his first, and three for his second. When someone is really nervous they sweat, feel faint, that's before they have the vaccination, and we generally try to get them in and out as quickly as possible, but the vaccination takes as long as they take, so each time I would think someone spent 45mins with him each time, I was there the last three times. Last week he came back with two tins of biscuits for us and a thank you.

Moderna vs. Pfizer: Is There a “Best” mRNA Vaccine?
Both of the mRNA vaccines available in the US are highly effective against severe COVID-19, but recent studies suggest that Moderna’s elicits a stronger immune response and might be better at preventing breakthrough infections.

Had both the booster and flu jab at same time . No bad effects at all

No problem with any of the three. All I did was I took care to arrange my work the following day so that there was little possibility of the injection site being knocked accidentally 'cos I knew that would really hurt.

I’ve had mine and I’m boostered up as well. its simple really, I want to be around for as long as I can in a state to enjoy it and having seen my lad through ICU I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, or their loved ones.
Think of it a bit like the guard on the COVID PTO.

My sister in law had a Pfizer booster last week after two Astras. Following morning she had a bad vertigo attack, but OK after 24 hours.
