"Switching arms between vaccine doses could dramatically improve immune response, OHSU study shows" 😲

Surprising news! This is dated last week but it aired just a couple days ago

@ahimsa_pdx oooo! I’m going to keep this in mind for my second shingles dose

@lia_pas I wonder how it works?

I think this study was only on COVID-19 vaccines but I'd have to listen to it again (can't find a transcript - Grrr...) I only heard part of the story while driving.

I don't know whether it works for all vaccines! 🤷🏻‍♀️

EDIT: But I guess it wouldn't hurt to switch arms! They do always ask which arm you want!

@ahimsa_pdx I had to get 3 different vaccines over 3 months this fall and my left shoulder is still stiff so I was going to switch arms anyways 😅
