Chat about Novel Coronavirus - 2019-nCoV - COVID-19

Your job interview is unlikely to be as important as getting your vaccine. I'd also hope the company would be amenable to delaying your interview for 24 hours should you feel a bit rotten like some people do.

I don’t respond well with a lot of meds

Just think of the potential response to actual Covid and the meds they would have to give you if you became more than mildly ill. I understand your medical anxiety, a lot of family members are the same way. But this is one case where there has to be a lesser of two evils.

Also, if you are felling rubbish, as @Stonehedge says, any company that wouldn't entertain delaying the interview is not one that I would want to work for.

I have been reading up about when asthmatics will get the vaccines and there seem to have been some changes that if your asthma isn’t extremely severe then you are not a at risk group anymore, because we are not at any higher risk than a health person.

I got my invite yesterday and am booked for my first jab next Thursday. The only possible reason I got one is my non-severe asthma, so if that's true it hasn't taken effect yet.

On your vaccine-related anxiety, worth remembering that about 18 million people have had it now. As far as I'm aware they're all essentially fine. Anecdotally all I've heard of so far is feeling crap/tired for a few days.

Understandable anxiety, and fingers crossed for the interview.

As @KT_Bee said I had similar. But have had similar side effects for have blood drawn every 4 days since the vaccination.
