Fever has subsided this morning but still low grade around 99.2 f and feeling really fatigued today. Asked my physician son about it and he said "Be happy, it's your immune system kicking in because it recognizes the MRNA and is mounting a response". He also said I was in the rare group over 70 who have an immune system like a 20 year old.

My wife has no symptoms whatsoever. Just a little arm soreness. Go figure.

Regardless, a little temporary fever is a small price to pay for immunity.
Hopefully it will give you immunity....
