Thank you for offering this service! My wife and I both had COVID in late July. She was 9 months pregnant when she got the bivalent booster in late October, I just got it yesterday. We both had intense side effects for all 3 other shots. For this one, neither of us had side effects (Pfizer for her, Moderna for me). Does that mean we didn't wait long enough after COVID infection to get the shots (over 3 months) and our remaining antibodies eliminated any new booster protection? Thanks so much!
The absence of side effects is no indication of failure of vaccine effect. You are both fine but remember to wear a mask when in crowded public indoor spaces, especially during a time when there is the circulation of lots of different respiratory viruses (not just Covid, but also thinking about flu, RSV, and other common cold viruses).
