I had the vaccine in the UK! イギリスでワクチンの注射をしました!

Today I finally was able to recieve my Corona Virus vaccine!
今日はやっとコロナウイルスのワクチンの注射をしました!

In the UK we have been really fast to distribute the vaccine, so even me, a 24 year old, was able to have the shot today.
ワクチンの配布はイギリスで非常に早いので、24歳の私にも注射をもらいました。



It was easy to book, and I was able to get the shot within 48 hours of booking!
予約することが簡単で、予約した時から48時間以内に注射をしました!

I was very, very nervous when I went to the vaccination centre. I hate needles, and always feel faint after getting a shot. 
会場に行った時にとてもとても緊張していました。針が苦手で、注射をする時に具合が悪くなることが多いです。

When I arrived, things got even worse! Someone inside the vaccination centre had collapsed, and an ambulance was needed to escort them to the hospital. 
到着した時に、気分がさらに悪くなりました!実は、並び始めた時に会場にいる誰かが倒れてしまって、救急車がきました。



Everyone who was waiting for their shot became even more nervous than before. There was a long delay because of the incident, and the longer I waited, the more nervous I became. My hands were shaking a little (lol).
その病気な人を見て、不安な気持ちさらに強くなりました。事故のせいでみんなは会場から立ち退くことになって、待つ時間がもっと長くなりました。待てれば待つほと、もっと不安になりました。手が少し震えていたくらいでした(笑)。

When I was finally let in to the building, the nurses were really friendly! They ask you about any allergies you may have, and I told her that I was frightened. I told them that I definitely didn't want to see the needle. The nurse was very understanding, and told me to look away. I had a little chat with the nurse about clothes to distract me from the injection. 
やっと会場に入った時に看護師さんと話して不安が少しなくなりました。「緊張しています!針が怖いので、どうか私に見せずに針を準備してください〜〜」と頼みました。看護師さんが親切で、私が目をそらした時に注射をしました。注射から紛らすために、看護師さんと服についての会話をしました。

After, I was offered water and sent to a large waiting room where people who had the vaccine sat for 15 minutes. If they showed no side-affects and were not in pain by the end of the 15 minutes, they were allowed to go home. Time passed quickly, and I left without feeling any discomfort.
注射が終わってからすぐ水を提供して、大きい待合室に移動しました。そこで座って、15分後に副作用がない場合は帰られます。時間がすぐ経って、具合が悪くならずに帰りました。

It has been around 7 hours since I had the vaccine, and I have had no side effects what-so-ever! I heard from many friends that young people experience side effects the next day, like fatigue or a sore arm. I'm prepared for it.
注射をしたから約7時間が経ちましたが、副作用が全くなかったです!いろいろな人が「若い人は次の日から副作用が始まるんだよ」を注意しましたが、覚悟しています。

Today I had the PFizer vaccine. The experience (apart from the ambulance!) was very pleasant, and even someone like me who is terrified of injections wasn't bothered by it.
PFizerのワクチンでした。救急車以外に、注射が苦手な私にとってもとても快適な経験でした!



I would love to hear what it is like to be vaccinated in other countries! The UK is one of the fastest countries in the world to distribute the vaccine, and I am very very thankful. In 11 weeks I will take the 2nd dose, but many people say that it is not as bad as the 1st injection. Bring it on!!
他の国での注射はどうかが聞きたいです!イギリスは世界で最も早くワクチンを配布している国かもしれませんので、感謝の気持ちがいっぱいあります。11週間後に2番目の注射をしますが、1番目と比べたらそんなに大変ではないと聞きました。楽しみですね!

    Hey, congrats Abbie! Heard the UK was really doing well with the vaccine roll-out. Very good for you! I just had a 2nd dose this week - yes, I'm old! I had a sore arm but that was it. No other side effects. Maybe I was feeling a bit tired but I am always tired (you know why!) but one of my hubby's co-wokers had a fever and couldn't get up next day. He is our age and looks fit, fitter than us. So it really depends on the person, I guess. Thanks for sharing your experience. Take care, Abbie!
