We got our first Moderna shot on January 8th at the Orange County Convention Center. Both of us had a sore injection site pain for about 36 hours. We received the Moderna shot #2 on Friday morning also at the Convention Center. My wife's arm was just as sore and she developed a fever of 101 after about 12 hours. She also had a slight headache. Today (Sunday) morning she is back 100%. No side effects at all. I did not have any noticeable injection site arm pain at all with the second shot. I felt just a slight amount of tiredness but no fever, no joint aches, and no other side effects at all. Obviously the second injection's side effects are very individual since we both had completely different experiences on the second shot and similar arm pain on the first shot. But any way one looks at it, a few side effects is much better than contracting the virus.
