My mother and I were discussing the other day that some years the flu shot gives us a sore arm, some years not. One year I got a tetanus booster that made my arm hurt so much I could hardly move it. Last year I got a tetanus booster that caused nothing more than a little tenderness at the injection site. I just follow my doctor's usual guidance, and try to move my vaccinated arm a bit more than usual.
Half of my state moved into Phase 1B this week, and my teacher friends are already being contacted with appointment dates and times. Due to some pre-existing health issues, I'm eligible to be vaccinated in the latter half of Phase 1C, and I've already pre-registered. But I doubt I'll be getting my first dose until late February at the earliest.
