Waiting after the booster?

If you've had a pfizer/moderna booster, did you have to sit and wait for 15 minutes after?

Not liking my chances sitting in a room with 20 people or more, even with masks, with Omicron. I would like to just walk out and take my chances but last time they seemed almost threatening when I said I wanted to leave to wait in the car with my husband, like they would almost physically make me 🤔

I had moderna today and had to wait in my car for 15 mins.

I politely declined to wait after both my previous vaccines and will do so again after my booster. It’s just advised to but you don’t have to do anything, not like they have the power of arrest or can take the vaccine back!

Pleased there is a short wait before leaving the building, even more so if you are driving. You could just feel lightheaded, not necessarily anything major, but good that you would be where medical help is at hand if needed.

Another one who almost fainted after my first vaccine. Totally out of the blue. Not expected etc.

Well it seems they are getting rid of the wait now in order to be able to hit this ridiculous target of everyone over 18 being boosted by the end of the month.
