First Covid-19 shot

My wife, Kid and I are in the same boat. the wife got her first dose a week ago, much like all of her co workers they all got sick the following day.
after 1 day, it passed. with my pre existing conditions and her repeated exposure to sick people, we decided its not worth the risk for us.
if getting these shots, gets us back to some form of normal faster Im all for it.
I don't ever want to experience that crap ever again......
24 hours after the first shot and nothing yet.. fingers crossed
