Unvaccinated person living with vaccinated person- weird symptoms? **Title edited by MNHQ**

Hi all,
This is entirely anecdotal but my dh is vaccinated and as yet I am not. He's older by about ten years.
I've noticed I'm getting headaches and feeling a bit run down since he's been jabbed.
I work from home, only tend to see one other close friend-also older and been jabbed- who I spend a lot of time with indoors. They are single so this has been allowed for ages.
Go out to supermarket and outside pub with others but that's it. No dc's.
What I'm getting at here is could my symptoms be related to dh and friend having jab? They're the only ones I dont distance with.
I'm not worried but curious.

Damn ! I meant VACCINATED person.

Hope I don't have to start another thread.

Probably. The signal on his 5g wifi is too high.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

OP I think you are worrying too much about something that is just a coincidence. Other viruses and bugs are available not just covid. Also most people are knackered and run down at the moment, it's been a hell of a year with no respite for a lot of people!

RedcurrantPuff · 17/05/2021 08:25

Why on Earth would him being vaccinated make you feel unwell?

HopeYourHighHorseBucks · 17/05/2021 08:29

Yes it could be.

I took my dog to be wormed the other week and I cant stop dragging my arse along the carpet.

HopeYourHighHorseBucks · 17/05/2021 08:30

Only joking OP. I dont think them being vaccinated is causing this, otherwise surely more people would be complaining of secondhand (?) Vaccine side effects.

Thank you for a good laugh this grey Monday morning. 😁

He's definitely shedding.

Complete coincidence

Hmm
Zippy1510 · 17/05/2021 08:39

No there is no possible mechanism by which him being vaccinated causes symptoms in you.

The only sensible answer to that question.

I also had a conversation with someone who was going to ban her partner from the house for a few days after his in case he 'shedded' the virus from the vaccine and she caught covid from it.

This crap is everywhere. I'm tired of hearing it.

wheresmymojo · 17/05/2021 08:47

No. It's impossible.

The COVID vaccine doesn't contain COVID for a start!

It only contains parts that mimic the spike proteins.

Even if you had 1M vaccinations you couldn't get COVID from it, let alone being in the vicinity of someone who's had one.

What is possible is that either of the vaccinated people could have passed COVID on to you because being vaccinated greatly reduces transmission but it doesn't stop it or your partner could have asymptomatic COVID and picked it up at the vaccination centre or before his immunity had built up.

MrsMackesy · 17/05/2021 08:47

I think you are probably suffering psychosomatic symptoms because of Vaccine Envy, OP. It is quite a common phenomenon. Fear not, you will get yours soon.

wheresmymojo · 17/05/2021 08:50

More likely is that you just have a headache and feel a bit shit from living through a weird low level but constant stressful situation like a pandemic. Or you have something else. Or you need Vitamin D.

peboh · 17/05/2021 08:53

Seriously?

OP, if you think you've been affected by someone else's vaccine and you have a headache, then is it possible you've banged your head really really hard?
Drink some water and take a multi-vitamin.

GreyStep · 17/05/2021 08:56

@Berline in the nicest possible way, just book a covid test.
Please don’t decide whether you can get it depending on who you see, it doesn’t work that way. Vaccinated people can still pass it on mildly without symptoms and make unvaccinated ill.
Also COVID IS AIRBORNE. So unless you are wearing a full hazmat suit, then walking through the supermarket following someone with covid means you can get it. Remember in winter how far smokers smoke travels in cold air and lingers and you walk to avoid it at a few metres? Same with covid so outside isn’t some magical protection. The reason it’s still spreading as people think they can only catch it if they’ve physically know someone who’s had it. Not true.

But moving the reply about hia 5G being activated!

Some replies on here are making my day Grin

rainbowunicorn · 17/05/2021 09:42

Bloody hell. Just when you think you can't see anything more stupid on here, along comes another one.

I really despair at times.

Berline · 17/05/2021 10:09

Quite a negative reaction for a genuine question.
As I said, I'm not worried.
Perhaps I should have said that if so it's a GOOD thing.
I was hoping for 'yes there's a connection, this is some kind of transference of immunity'.

Berline · 17/05/2021 10:13

I don't think I've caught covid. I just thought maybe he was conferring some protection to me.
That's all.
If it's just a coincidence, then I'm disappointed if anything.

If immunity were so easily transferred, none of us would have to get vaccinated. We could just shack up with a vaccinated person.
