Abraham Lincolm Memorial Hospital issued the following announcement on Jan. 21.
What are the side effects of getting COVID-19 vaccination? Will vaccination give me COVID-19?
The side effects of COVID-19 vaccination are similar to what you may have experienced from other immunizations—fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain. For the vast majority of people, these side effects are mild and will resolve within 24-36 hours. These side effects do not mean that you have COVID-19. They are a sign that the vaccine is working and your immune system is learning to fight COVID-19. The vaccine cannot give you COVID-19 as there is no live or inactive virus in the COVID-19 vaccine you are receiving.
