Many seniors wonder what to expect following their COVID-19 vaccination. The apprehension is understandable, but there is good news.

First, as previously discussed, seniors seldom experience adverse side effects. Compared to younger populations, in fact, seniors extremely rarely get sick.

Beyond that, the post-vaccination side effects resemble those of any vaccination according to the CDC. That is, some pain, redness, or swelling may occur. Others may experience muscle pain, fever, or nausea. The most common symptoms such as local ache may be addressed by simply applying a cool wash.

Visit the COVID-19 Vaccination Guide at the CDC website for detailed information. The page will walk you through the basics preparation, best care, and simple recovery.

NORA understands that seniors care deeply about their health and well-being. Part of well-being is financial. That is why we stand behind The Guaranteed 3% COLA for Seniors Act. Furthermore, we believe this 3% increase should be retroactive to 2010 to adequately compensate seniors for low and missing COLAs.

If you agree, please help us in our campaign. Sign our Benefit Reimbursement Petition to Congress now. Let Congress know that you believe that seniors should be compensated for the money they have earned and never received!
