The Side-lined Genealogist
This family historian was laid low by Covid-19 this week. No, not the virus. The vaccine.
I received my second dose of the Moderna shot on Monday. Within 12 hours, I had fever, headache, and fatigue.
The next day I slept most of the time and had no appetite.
The following day, I got out of bed but still had little energy. I ate sparingly and began to feel better as the day went on.
By the third day I seemed more like myself. I felt grateful to have experienced only vaccine side effects rather than the full-blown virus.
Covid-19 has taken so much from us over the past year. Perhaps the symptoms I experienced were a minimal price to pay for protection.
Today, I am back at the genealogy desk.
