Slightly sore arm at injection point, and the world's tiniest headache from the first jab - I told the nurse not to list the headache and mentioned the nocebo effect. She smiled at that (knowledgable lady) and didn't enter it as a reported side effect. Headache lasted less than an hour (I had to keep checking to detect it, it was that weak), slightly sore arm lasted about two days. Tomorrow I get my fourth jab. I normally get a slightly sore arm from flu injections too. Tommorrow, I might report anything different about how I feel.Now I personally object to huge lists of side effects that include those one person in 100,000 or even 1,000,000 will get. (You see these listed on every medication in the UK. Because if you tell someone about a side effect, no matter how trivial, they will watch for that effect - that's how I noticed my tiniest of tiny headaches, that lasted for less than an hour at the most. If you tell someone a side effect is a sore elbow on the arm not injected and someone bumps that elbow on the bedroom door and wakes up the next day with a sore elbow, they will report it as a side effect.
I remember the scares about how x people have died within seven days of having the jab (this was reported by government and in facebook posts, and we all know how reliable facebook is)! So I looked up the death rates as reported over several previous years, to get the weekly numbers you'd expect to die in any week at that various times of year. Guess what - less people died among the reported number jabbed in these weeks than normally died among that sample size in an average week / year. I checked multiple weeks, same result. I checked for outlier years, but even taking the worst year, it was still true! So Covid-19 vaccines obviously must be preventing normal death. Lengthening your life, even if Covid didn't exist! Now that was personal research into 35,000,000 "participants", a large sample in anyone's view. So I must be correct. Think I should publish this?
There have been many investigations into the nocebo effect, where people are given a drink or jab that is actually pure water, then told the side effects to watch for. Many report the side effects they have just been told about, even if it is just invented for the experiment. The BBC did a program about three years ago, I think, where they told a group of about 30 - 35 people they would be drinking water with a higher dose of Vitamin C than in normal drinks, and side effect symptoms to watch out for from vitamin C. Totally made up symptoms, or we'd all get them from eating apples and oranges. About half reported some symptoms. But some reported having several of the worst symptoms (four or five people, if I remember correctly) and had to withrawn from the experiment by about day three as they were feeling so very ill! From drinking water.
(A bit like a woman in a shop last week who, when chatting to the till operator said she couldn't drink water without feeling sick, but she could drink beer and lemonade and milk - even though I gave her strong hints about how much water was in milk, beer, etc, she was adamant water that made her sick.)
It's the same with suger or e-numbers making children hyperactive. One investigation took groups of parents and their child. The parents watched through a one-way mirror and accessed if their child, after drinking what turned out to be just water, became hyperactive. Those who were told it was laced with lots of sugar or e-numbers often reported hyperactivity. While those told their child was drinking water reported no hyperactivity in their child, but said "just look at the other lot's kids, bouncing off the walls"!
