-| What common side effects might children experience after being vaccinated?  | [[Laura Sauvé]]  | Some children will have no reaction to their COVID-19 vaccine, while others may have some short-term side effects. These side effects are usually mild and clear up on their own within hours or days. Side effects experienced by children in the clinical trials were similar to those for youth 12 and older. Common side effects can include redness and soreness and swelling at the injection site, and your child may also feel chills, mild fever, headache, and joint and muscle aches in the first day or two after being vaccinated. As with adults, your child will be asked to wait onsite for about 15 minutes after vaccination to watch for allergic reactions. Severe allergic reactions are very rare. They usually occur within minutes after a person receives the vaccine, and they are treatable.  |
