Side effects from second covid shot 'knocked out' Dr Fauci for 24 hrs
Dr Anthony Fauci has admitted he was 'knocked out' for a full day by his second dose of COVID-19 vaccine.
'I was hoping that I wouldn’t get too knocked out. I did for about 24 hours. Now I’m fine,' Dr Fauci said during a Thursday White House press briefing when asked if he'd had his booster shot.
The nation's top infectious disease doctor said he was 'fatigued. A little achy. You know. Chilly,' but 'no sick' after his second dose of Moderna's coronavirus vaccine.
Those are among the most common side effects of either of the two shots authorized in the US, made by Pfizer and Moderna.
But Dr Fauci continued to remind Americans that those side effects are not illness triggered by the vaccine, but the immune system ramping up to fend off the virus.
Dr Fauci revealed he got his second dose of the vaccine on January 19.
It came 28 days after he received his first dose of the shot on December 22, on live television.
He joined the ranks of other officials and high-profile figures whose vaccinations were televised to encourage Americans to get theirs, including President Biden, former Vice President Pence and three former US presidents: Obama, Bush and Clinton.
Former President Trump, who had COVD-19 last fall, did not publicly get vaccinated. It is unclear whether he had the shot behind closed doors.
Americans' confidence in vaccines has improved since the summer, when only about half of US adults said they planned to get the shot.
By the end of December, that share had risen to 60 percent, according to Pew Research.
