    Everybody I know in the states that has had either the Moderna or Pfizer has felt bad after, especially so after the second injection. The injection is supposed to generate viral antigens in your body and your immune system is supposed to kick in and build antibodies to them. Injection site soreness, tiredness and lack of energy, headache, just feeling bad and maybe a slight fever ... those are all natural expected consequences of an immune system at work. So, I wonder, does it have any significance if you feel nothing after the injection? Does that mean the vaccine only created a weak immune system response? Just curious about that.

    My second shot of Sinovac was about the same time as yours.
    No reaction what so ever.

    Just had my 2nd shot and whilst waiting got talking to the IATF officials and Dr:- It seems that in the near future (they couldn't give an exact date) only fully vaccinated people will allowed to travel inter province. I foresee a huge demand for forged vaccination certificates

    It almost seems to lead a person to believe they are immune and can't pass COVID on after getting vaccinated. Wrong message from our governments, again.

    Looking around for mixmatch info on Sinovac - HK has one going.

    Mixed trials
    One mixed trial involving a Chinese vaccine is already underway on Chinese soil in Hong Kong.

    In March, Hong Kong University's Department of Medicine announced that it was recruiting participants for a trial that would mix doses of China's Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine and Germany's BioNTech vaccine.

    The trial, which will involve roughly 150 volunteers over the age of 18, will give participants four different vaccine regimens. One group will get a BioNTech dose followed by the Sinovac dose, while other groups will get full regimens of either BioNTech's vaccine, Sinovac's shot, or placebo jabs.

    Dr. Ivan Hung, a professor at Hong Kong University and adviser to the city's COVID-19 response, said in late March that the research will be important to determine if mixing the vaccine jabs boosts immunity against COVID-19. But he said that because of a lack of clinical data he does not currently recommend that Hong Kong mix vaccine doses.

    The outcome of the trial may have implications for China.

    China has secured 100 million doses of BioNTech’s mRNA vaccine, but regulators have yet to approve it for distribution within China even though the shot has been approved in Hong Kong and dozens of other countries around the world.

    Experts told Fortune in March that China may be delaying its approval due to a preference for China-made jabs.

    But Gao's comments hint that China's attitude toward mRNA vaccines like BioNTech's may be changing.

    On Saturday, Gao told the conference that China should “consider the benefits” of mRNA vaccines and “not ignore” them.

    Other mixed-vaccine trials are also underway in other parts of the world using different types of vaccines.

    China's CanSino Biologics is reportedly involved in discussions with Russia's Sputnik 5 vaccine makers to conduct a two-dose mixed trial using CanSino's one-shot adenovirus shot and Sputnik's viral vector jab. In the U.K., AstraZeneca and BioNTech also launched the world's first mixed-vaccine trial involving over 800 volunteers.

    JUST IN: Negros Oriental this morning received its first-ever batch of Pfizer #COVID19 vaccines.
    The 195 vials of the Pfizer vaccine arrived at the Dumaguete-Sibulan Airport this morning, June 25, 2021.
    The vials, good for 1,117 doses, will be administered as first doses and will be given within the next three days for health care workers, senior citizens, and persons with comorbidities.
    This first batch of Pfizer jabs were given by the national government upon the request of Governor Roel Degamo. #NewsBite
