Sample size of one, but the 2 year old had a few days of being tired, stuffy, and getting all the ice cream she wanted, and then was fine.
(Same with the triple vaxxed 82 year old, for that matter.)
I'm going to be super vigilant with the newborn, of course, AND the children's hospital is pretty full, but MOST kids seem to be ok. Hopefully the Pfizer vax is approved for the little ones soon, and in six months and 4 weeks, the newborn can be vaxxed.
