CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (WTVD) Health leaders say a sore arm is pretty much guaranteed after the COVID-19 vaccine, but ABC11 is hearing from some people who, to their surprise, are developing other side effects. I think what most people are concerned about is feeling sick, said UNC Health infectious disease expert Dr. David Wohl.
Wohl helps run The Friday Center vaccination clinic, which has administered more than 40,000 doses to date For dose 1 of the Moderna and Pzifer vaccines, and even the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which is a one-and-done vaccine, most (people) don t experience anything, he said.
Nonetheless, some people are reporting large, blotchy rashes post-dose and it s been dubbed the COVID arm.
