However, he said, after two days later or rather on Saturday, May 8, he suddenly developed fever, cough, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, sedents and headaches

But unfortunately, the resident instead of reporting to the nearest health care worker, justri instead uploaded his condition to social media Facebook, and then briefly became a conversation.

Although it is not yet certain that the pain experienced by Madropi has something to do with COVID-19 vaccination, because from the observation and screening results 30 minutes after vaccinating does not show any symptoms of pain or allergies.
