Thanks for asking.
I was fine when I woke up in morning after the sweat episode in the middle of the night. And been fine since.
Its like my immune system compleatly ignored the jab. Mrs Sharp is convinced she had it back in Feb‐March last year, if that was the case then I must of had it too without knowing. So, interesting that covid did not touch me and neither did the vaccine. Mrs was ill with covid and had a bad time with the vax. Could be linked.

Good news
A poll of friends puts the bad reaction rate at somewhere between a third and a half felt feverish. But nobody for more than 36 hours, then back to fine. The rest of us, absolutely no reaction at all. As you say, there must be a reason for the differences.
Did you see the BBC's 'Pandemic 2020' Thursday night? Very interesting. Makes it clear the infection rate was astronomical at the beginning. Perhaps lots more people were asymptomatic than we realised.

It would be interesting to know which jab ( Oxford/Pfizer ), was the "culprit" among those folks that have had a noticeable reaction. So far I've not come across anyone who's had any sort of reaction to the Pfizer, other than a sore arm.

Wouldn't watch the proven liyers and propagandist panodrama if you paid me.

my mate who had a real bad time and was off work for a week was the only one out of 10 workmates to get the az jab all on the same day. 6 out of 10 had problems and were off work for at least 2 days each. So from that small group 50% had issues with the Pfizer jab. They were all between 40 and 55 and because of the nature of their jobs its highly likely they had covid in the past. Some defiantly did, including  my mate although they are not sure.

You'd be surprised. Made by the same team that produced 'Once Upon A Time in Iraq', which showed all the 'dirty washing'

All my group (about 20) had the AZ. Both with and without after effects. All are aged 50+.

I had the pfizer jab, 2 days with mild headache and feeling tired then fine, not enough to stop me working.I have to say while waiting for the jab and reading the bumph I started to feel half the side effects before going in....

[fazersharp]

I don't know weather its because more AZ vaxes are being given but it seems like more people have issues with AZ than Pfizer.
From what I could find out its because AZ is closer to a normal vax ‐ as in a deactivated virus but pifzer is totally artificially manufactured on a dna level.

The sweat episode was after dreaming you'd left your bike out in the rain

If anyone is even remotely concerned about the apparent chance of blood clotting with the AZ vaccine, why not cover the bases and take a course of Omega 3 capsules for a month or so to put the mind, and body, at rest?
A very small dose of Aspirin is an alternative for the vegans out there BUT be warned that Aspirin can have side effects as i found out myself, so you'd need a doctor to give you the go ahead on that one. 
I'm not suggesting either are necessary, it's just that some people worry more than others, especially with the media making a meal of things, so why not do something about it to counteract any miniscule possibility of a blood clot?

From what I read it's a smaller chance of blit clot than women get from taking the contraception pill 🤷‍♂️ probably more risk in taking the omega 3 haha

Wait a minute, Germany has found that the blood clotting mainly affects younger women. Could it be these same woman are also taking a contraception pill and doubling the clot risk. Germany have started on the younger generations which is also why they have higher clot cases than we do.

Doesn't put people off flying either.

Probably because most people don't realise there is a risk from flying. If a bunch of numpty idiots started an online campaign warning against it and spreading overhyped reports with skewed views then I'm sure there would be a lot more people that wouldnt fly and would be blaming Bill Gates or the government for making air travel unsafe deliberately. Saying its all one big conspiracy to control the population blah blah blah
That's the problem with the modern technological age, the village idiots have learnt to use the Internet 🙈

Every time there's a dramatic plane or rail crash you get people saying "I'm not going to fly/ go by train, I'd prefer to drive".

What they don't realise is that the risks of dying in a car crash (the number of deaths per passenger mile ) are much greater than that of a train or plane, eg in 2019 there were 1,752 reported road deaths in the UK and 153,158 KSI casualties in reported road traffic accidents, but most of those are never headline news unless they're really spectacular.

This gives people a biased view of the facts, just as saying "There's been X many cases of blood clots from this vaccine" don't make clear that the odds are around one in a million, as opposed to the one in a thousand or shorter odds of having a serious/ fatal case of COVID.

Add to that the chance of coincidence as well.
These same people may have been heading towards a blood clot for whatever reason anyway, and it's just coincidental that they happened to have a jab around the same time, so it's a perfect scapegoat to use.

Heard immunity to be reached on Monday.-- Sky News  --- Real-time modelling carried out by University College London indicates the UK should pass the critical threshold where the proportion of people who have protection against the virus either through vaccination, previous infection or natural immunity will hit 73.4% on Monday, 12 April.

 Meanwhile government ministers desperately trying to down play it.

Got minor surgery on Tuesday, for long standing re-occurring Trigger Finger problem. Monday was booked at Donington for first trackday of the year, so when the surgery letter dropped into the letter box, I thought the planets were aligning nicely. Trackday then surgery. But no. Turns out ive to have a Covid swab on Saturday, then self isolate until Tuesdau morning. Ive cancelled the trackday and will re-book later once healed. Annoying thing is, I suspect some would have just ignored the isolation period and gone ahead with the trackday, but I'm doing it by the book
