I’m just amazed at how small the microchips must be to fit through the tiny hole at the end of the needle, not to mention the advances in battery technology to power them😉
Keep still and you won't recharge the small battery fitted. Also avoid any shops with theft detection as these can supply a short burst of power, sufficient for them to be read.

I had my booster yesterday evening. Sore arm this morning but OK apart from that.

Oh and it was Moderna, not Pfizer so doesn't really belong in this thread. (First 2 were AZ)

Interesting that this has been mentioned - my mother had 2x AZ then the Pfizer booster; really knocked her on her arse for at least 10 days.. to the extent that I was really quite worried about her for a bit. Her arm was painful throughout (which was somewhat reassuring that the rest of the symptoms were vaccine-related and not something else) and thankfully there don't seem to be any obvious lasting effects beyond this.

I had Pfizer booster on Monday after 2 AZ. I could feel my arm had been jabbed next day but nothing to speak of. My other half had Moderna booster after 2 AZ on tueday and she'd still feely very achy this morning (thursday) and was very meh yesterday headache and joint aches.

its a bit of pot luck i think.

Had my Pfizer booster yesterday and have a sore arm this morning. Decided to take today off (well I am retired so I do that every day anyway 😜 ). If I’d waited for an appointment it would have taken over a month, so I used a walk in centre instead and had the booster exactly 182 day (6 months) after my second AZ jab.

I spoke too soon. I was fine in the morning just after getting up but got progressively worse during the day and gave in to the inevitable and went to bed at about 4. After a long sleep, fingers crossed OK today. Arm is still sore.

I was similar to @Dogtrousers. Pfizer after 2x AZ. Felt fine just after the jab but next day felt very tired, arm was sore, couldn't concentrate. I had the shivers at one point which was helped by some paracetamol. Next day - pretty much fine again (except for sore arm).

First two AZ. Moderna last Friday. Slight chill over the weekend with pain when sleeping on injection site. The former was nothing that a warmer jumper couldn’t solve, and the latter by not sleeping on that side.

The booking system is a bit bonkers. Our local pharmacy is busy doing the boosters, but could I get it, no - got to drive 3 miles to the nearest. Booked in for the 5th.

There is a weird two tier thing going on. If you book through the NHS website you seem to get sites that are much further away. If your GP sends you a link you get the site down the road...

'twas the opposite for me. GP link for booster was at a 'hub' they are using on t'other side of Preston with no convenient public transport and not a place I would cycle (or walk) to, or through, or leave my bike. And for a week/10 days forward. Booked through the NHS link, was for a day or two later, actually AT the bus station in a huge tent on an unused open area. and across the road in an unused shop, so couldn't be more convenient if it tried.
