Innoculations

Thursday, I got a flu shot and the latest Covid shot.  Trying to decide whether to get both shots in one arm or one in each arm, I did an online search and found (HERE) that it doesn't matter:
"You can save time and money by getting two vaccinations at the same time, and new research finds that it doesn’t really matter which arm or arms the jab goes in."
So I thought about it and asked the person giving me the two shots.  She also said it doesn't matter, so I got both in my left arm (like the person above), hoping to keep my dominant arm pain-free for the next few days.  So far, so good.  It was still hurting yesterday morning, but got better during the day, and I went out to eat with my friend Jane at First Watch and had enough left over for another meal today.
