Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – CDC must warn the public if the Covid-19 vaccine injection has serious side effects. Therefore, it must be disclosed to the public and must be done in advance before receiving a second dose in a trial or trial.
The recommendations come as the United States prepares for vaccination again next month.
Dr. Sandra Fryhofer from the American Medical Association said that the Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines require two doses at different intervals.
As a practicing physician, he said he is concerned if his patients will return for a second dose due to the potentially unpleasant side effects they might experience after the first injection.
“We really need to make patients aware of this [pasien] not being able to walk in the park, “Fryhofer said during a virtual meeting with the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, or ACIP, a group of outside medical experts who advise the CDC.” They will know that they received the vaccine. They probably don’t feel out of the ordinary. But they had to come back for that second dose. “
Participants in the Moderna and Pfizer coronavirus vaccine trial told CNBC in September that they developed a high fever, body aches, severe headaches, daytime fatigue and other symptoms after receiving the injection. Although the symptoms were uncomfortable and sometimes intense, participants said they often went away after a day, sometimes sooner, and that was better than getting Covid-19.
Both companies acknowledge that their vaccines can cause side effects similar to those associated with mild Covid-19, such as muscle aches, chills, and headaches.
A North Carolina woman in Moderna’s study who was 50 years old said she did not have a fever but had a severe migraine that left her exhausted for a day and unable to concentrate. He said he woke up the next day feeling better after taking Excedrin, but added that Moderna might need to tell people to take a break after the second dose.
“If this is successful, people have to be tough,” he said. “The first dose is not a big deal. And then the second dose will definitely drop it for the day … It should be taken a day off after the second dose.”
During Monday’s meeting, Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said the agency will work to develop guidelines if healthcare workers receive the vaccine and then feel ill the next day. .
“How does that influence planning at the hospital level in terms of which personnel are vaccinated on which days?” he said.
