I'll be at the Health Center tomorrow to have my last injection for tetanus toxoid. I'm having it 3 times at one month interval. My first encounter with needle of the new year. It's a protection and for good and I'm no longer afraid of the injection but I'm not sure if I'll let myself to be injected with Covid19 vaccine once it's available in my country.

@misunderstood_zombie yes, but even non-rusty materials could still cause.

Yes, it is. The one administered when you sustained wounds to avoid the infection.

What is tetanus toxoid? Is it a medicinal injection?

@ZedSmart Oh l see. Well so sorry to know that happened. Anyway stay safe with that cat. We will still wait for the vaccine to come maybe 2nd quarter of this year. My sister abroad was injected already. The side effect she has was her arm got immobilized for a day and slight fever. I think this is common for many vaccines fever is the most common side effects.

I don't blame you. The vacine has been rushed, and was "ready" much faster than it should've taken. he longer it takes to come up with something like that, the better.

I think many people don't want to be vaccinated.

Why 3? I think only 1 is fine?

It's a requirement to have three doses at one month interval.

I'll be taking the Covid vaccine when I am told to. To be honest, my body always have weird reaction towards meds. I don't know what this one will do to me. Maybe, it's nothing. Maybe, there's something. We'll see.
