I am trying to help my elderly mother get ready for her upcoming Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine appointment. I read the possible side effects, but I would like to hear from real people who have experienced them. What should I do to help her if she gets a fever or other symptoms?

I think all of the vaccines have some side effects, it’s the way our body works to build immunity. My daughter got the Pfizer vaccine, it was the same story, she had a fever and felt sick, but after 3 days she was good.

I got the Moderna vaccine and had no side effects at all. But the nurse told me that it’s normal to get side effects. She said some people get a fever, some get dizziness and some get nausea and vomiting.

Look, side effects are normal for every vaccination. Your mother will be fine. She will feel a little sick for a couple of days but she will be okay.

I had the Moderna vaccine and had no side effects at all. I felt fine and I am 65. I think it’s worth getting the vaccine. It’s just a very small amount of genetic material.

I had severe nausea, it was like I had food poisoning. Still I think it was worth getting vaccinated.

My arm was really sore for a couple of days, but other than that, no major side effects. Just make sure she stays hydrated and rests if she needs to. The vaccine is worth it to stay safe.

I had heart palptation, it was scary but not life threatening. I went to the hospital, they said it was a side effect. I got better in a few hours.

My uncle got the Moderna vaccine and had a really bad allergic reaction. He had to go to the hospital right after. The doctor said it was very rare but it can happen. Never again.

My mom had a pretty rough time with the Moderna vaccine. She had a high fever, chills, and was extremely tired for a few days. But she was okay after a few days and no sign of any more issue. Make sure she has fluids and a thermometer. and don’t panic if she gets a fever, it’s normal.

I had a little headache and that’s all. It’s better than getting COVID-19. Right?
