Regardless of whether you are a supporter or an opponent of the Covid 19 vaccination - you can congratulate me on my vaccination, which I got a few days ago!
The time of my vaccination with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine produced by the German biotechnology company BioNTech together with the American pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, I waited for about a month and a half, and the “X” day finally came.
Let me clarify that I live in Ukraine, in Kiev, and here you can choose which vaccine you want to be vaccinated with, but you will have to wait until the required vaccine appears.
I got vaccinated thanks to my relatives, who signed me up for company with them, and so, we came to the clinic in a friendly crowd.
The people in the line were very happy about our arrival, which was evident from their sour faces)
The vaccination center is located in the conference room of a regular district polyclinic on the third floor.
In the corridor, waiting for the vaccination, people are crowding, which looks quite usual for a clinic, but without much excitement and chaos.
Earlier, I saw a photo from another vaccination center in Kiev and the queue there is much larger. Therefore, we can say that everything turned out to be quite tolerant and comfortable.
Of course, there were nuances. And where without them?
All the people who came were booked in advance for a certain time, but the reception time was shifted due to technical problems. It took more than an hour to wait for the computer to start working, which caused impatience and public outrage in the queue.
During this time, we managed to fill out a consent - an inoculation questionnaire, where it was necessary to indicate standard information about ourselves, write what kind of vaccine we have today and what vaccine we choose.
We decided in advance to be vaccinated with Pfizer vaccine, despite the information regarding the effect of this type of vaccine on human DNA. Most of the people in line also preferred it.
We were invited into a spacious vaccination room and quickly entered our data into the system - they made a small injection in the upper arm.
The woman who directly injects the vaccine obligingly asked me whether I was right-handed or left-handed, and when she heard that I was right-handed, she injected me into my right arm, although she did the opposite to everyone, since the pain at the injection site was quite noticeable for the first day.
Regarding my state of health after the vaccination, four hours later, I developed slight weakness and pain at the injection site. I haven't felt any more side effects and I hope I won't get them in the future.
The second dose of Pfizer vaccine should be given 21 days later. If the vaccine is available, I will do a revaccination.
I do not agitate or dissuade anyone from vaccinations. Everyone has the right to make decisions and make informed choices on their own.
I can't say that I had a great desire to get vaccinated, but nevertheless, I did it and I hope to feel more relaxed and protected.
