"You got vaccinated months back? I have a few questions. Do you still have immunity from the vaccine? Do we know how long immunity lasts?"

"Eish! Now am scared I have back pain, couldn’t sleep last night coz the air was super dry. I was running short of breath, even had diarrhoea."
@Its_Lira commented:
"Same exact symptoms plus a few episodes of chest pain. Got vaccinated in February. I’m so grateful for the vaccine coz I think my symptoms would have been far worse."
