Anybody get the J&J vaccine?

Just curious what the general post-vaccine experience was. Is it the same as the other vaccines like a sore arm and mild symptoms for a few hours. I know all about the blood clot issue, but that is not a general side effect.

I got this vaccine about six weeks ago and felt a bit under the weather, like a mild flu for a couple of days but I was glad to get the "one and done" shot and get it over with and not have to potentially go through any effects twice.

My DD got it about 1 month ago and had 0 side effects..not even a sore arm.

my city went door to door for all home-bound people and gave them all the J&J vaccine as it was only 1 dose. if all the people no one had any adverse recations other than a sor arm. i was so proud to be the driver for the nurses and doctors who volunteered ti go house to house with no payment required.

I have a friend who had a problem with blood clotting as a young woman. She told me her daughter and her 16 and 18 year old granddaughters would not take J&J.

DH and I both received the J&J vaccine with no side effects at all.

Contrary to what you read J&J has the least side effects of all the vaccines. My husband, son and I all got it and had zero side effects and we all had Covid before as well.

There seems to be a push for the mRNA vaccines instead of J&J.I know this isn't popular to post but there are some serious concerns with mRNA technology in past vaccine tests. It's why it has never been used on humans before. I sought out the J&J because it doesn't have that technoloogy and it was tested when virus variants were more prevalent. It is, however, hard to find because of how the other ones are pushed.

My daughter got the J&J vaccine the day before it was put on “pause”. She had no side effects other than a bit of a sore arm at the injection site.

My trucker daughter got the J&J vaccine early last month, and her side effects were a headache and sore arm by that night, and mild flu like symptoms for the next 2 days.

Thank you so much for helping out, @duffy2! That was so good of you to do!
