A nurse from San Diego, Matthew W. contracted the coronavirus after being vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine, writes ABC News, citing the San Diego News. In addition to mild pain at the injection site, the man suffered no side effects, but six days later he began to shake, tired and his muscles began to ache. He turned out to have contracted the coronavirus.
The example above perfectly illustrates what happens if one is not informed about coronavirus vaccines: for example, the Pfizer vaccine consists of two injections given 14 days apart and immunity does not develop until 28 days after the first dose. . The aforementioned nurse did not wait 28 days, immediately began working in the COVID-19 department.
The first dose of vaccine provides approximately 50 percent protection, and both are necessary to achieve 95 percent.
It is also possible that the nurse was already infected when she received the vaccine, as the incubation period for the coronavirus can be 14 days.
Both cases show that vaccination is not the Holy Grail either, you need to know when you are protecting yourself, and until then, social distancing and wearing masks should remain the same as before. It is also unclear exactly how long the vaccine will protect, experts say it will be a few months, but the first data on this will not reach Pfizer until 3-4 months later.
