A 45-year-old American nurse contracted coronavirus more than a week after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. The British news agency Reuters confirmed the information, citing ABC News. However, a health expert told ABC News that this is not undesirable. The vaccine takes some time to develop resistance.
The nurse from California was named Matthew W. He works at two local hospitals. On December 16, he received the Pfizer vaccine. Matthew told ABC News that one day he had pain in his arm, but had no other side effects.
On Christmas Day (December 25), seven days after the incident, Matthew fell ill while working in the hospital’s Covid unit. He began to feel cold and later muscle pain and fatigue began.
According to the ABC report, Matthew went to a testing center a day later to take a coronavirus test and test positive.
However, Christian Rammers, an infectious disease specialist at the Family Health Center in San Diego, does not consider this to be undesirable. “We know from clinical trials of the vaccine that it takes 10 to 14 days for the body’s immune system to start getting vaccinated,” he told ABC News. We believe the first dose gives you 50 percent protection. After taking the second dose, you are guaranteed 95 percent protection.
