COVID-19 Vaccine
When you come to your first appointment for your multi-dose vaccine at AMSR Labs, you will be given instructions about how to schedule your second appointment at the same AMSRpoint location.
According to the CDC, extreme adverse effects “are extremely rare.” Most of the common side effects include mild flu-like symptoms, including fever, headache and body aches, but it is important to keep in mind that these symptoms are an indication that your body is building immunity and most people have no symptoms at all. Extreme reactions such as shortness of breath, severe pain or headache should be reported immediately to your doctor. Report adverse events following receipt of any COVID-19 vaccine to VAERS.
- COVID-19 vaccines are considered safe for these conditions, but it is important that you check with your physician if you have a condition that you think might prevent you from getting any vaccine.
For the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, individuals are considered fully vaccinated 2 weeks after the second dose. The Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine provides maximum vaccination protection 2 weeks after receiving it. It is important to remember that these vaccines cannot cause COVID-19, but if you are exposed before you are fully vaccinated, you are still at risk for acquiring the virus. Also, the CDC recommends continuing to wear a mask and social distance if you are around others who are not vaccinated.
