But the good thing is the pain is in transit and will evaporate soon.

The vaccine is a completely new thing to the human body and the structure of it is not something with which the body is well-acquainted. Side effects are even though seen, but are neither serious nor permanent, instead are just some random guests. The medical team always advises the jabbed person to take a significant amount of rest after the jab to give the body the required time to get along with the antibody of the vaccine.

After the first jab, it is advised to take the second dose after 84 days. The gap is necessary so that the body gets completely acquainted with the vaccine’s content and gets ready to get along with the second jab without any fear of any major side effects. Even if a person has been jabbed, still he/she should keep in mind to follow all the precautions because the body can still get infected with the virus. The vaccine is not effective immediately after the jab.
