Have you been Vaccinated with The COVID-19 Booster?

Hello blogger friends from all over the world, how are you? I hope that you will continue to be given blessings, health, and the spirit of writing. Aamiin😇. This is the first article on my second blog (english blog) in 2022. Hopefully, this article about COVID-19 will be last, in the sense that the COVID-19 pandemic ends this year😊. 

In my country, Indonesia, the permitted COVID-19 booster vaccine include AstraZeneca, Moderna, Pfizer, Sinopharm, Sinovac, Zivivax. But the one with the most stock is AstraZeneca. Even though is much cheaper than other COVID-19 vaccines, because the inventor didn't patent AstraZeneca, puts the human side forward, but don't neglect quality.

Surprisingly, many looking for Pfizer because it is considered more effective, suitable for commorbidities, and has a few side effects. But, as far as I can see, someone got the COVID-19 booster Pfizer vaccine, then a few days had a fever. While my father who is 70 years old, has comorbidities, and gets the COVID-19 booster AstraZeneca vaccine, it did not serious side effects. Just sleepy and easily hungry. So, everything is returned to the immune and body condition of each individual. If you are worried that you have side effects and attack comorbidities, you should first consult with your doctor. Each COVID-19 vaccine, include booster, that have been recognized by the government, has its own advantages and disadvantages.

I got the COVID-19 booster vaccine (the third vaccine) on February 17, 2022. after 6 months (the latest rules are enough 3 months apart) of the second dose of COVID-19 vaccine on August 12, 2021. For the first and second COVID-19 vaccines using Sinovac, while boosters use AstraZeneca. I didn't get any serious side effects when vaccinated sinovac. However, I got side effects from AstraZeneca booster vaccine in the form of joint pain in my right legs for 2 days. I got my all my vaccine at a community health center near my house, with a limited quota and 2 times a week. When I recovered, I became more confident to go outside, of course, by continuing by carry out health protocols.

In Indonesia, Data for Every Citizen who has been Vaccinated and Other Information Related to Vaccines and COVID-19 is Integrated in One Application: Pedulilindungi.id

Now, the Indonesian government has a made a new rule that when travelling using public transportation such as trains and planes, it is not necessary to have an antigen/PCR test provided that you have been fully vaccinated, at least the second vaccine. This is of course good news, although there are still concern that people will not obey  health protocols, especially during long holidays. There is even a new rule for the Eid holiday after Ramadan, everyone who returns to their hometown must have a The COVID-19 booster vaccination. Of course, there are exceptions, for those who are prohibited from vaccines by including a doctor's letter. zIf it's just the second vaccine, it still has to be tested for Antigen or PCR.

 

There is a plan from the government about the 4th COVID-19 vaccine or the second booster vaccine. I think as long as it has been scientifically tested and proven have a new variant, of course it should be supported. Hopefully there won't be a new variant and the first booster vaccine will suffice.

Lastly, I also want to know your condition after being vaccinated. Have you been vaccinated with the COVID-19 booster? what type of vaccine? Are there any side effects? or something else about COVID-19 vaccines? Please share in the comments column. Thanks. Stay safe and healthy.
