US Dem. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez received the Pfizer/BioNTech coronavirus vaccine and she shared the process live with her Instagram followers. The New York lawmaker shared the video of herself in the lead-up to the shot, including filling out a questionnaire and as well as how she felt afterwards. In the caption, she wrote that she would never, ever ask anyone to do something she wasn’t willing to do it on herself.
While taking to social media, AOC answered questions from followers and even shared a video showing the injection into her upper arm. On Friday, the 31-year-old took the first of the two rounds of the Pfizer vaccine, each administered 21 days apart. After receiving the jab, AOC shared information on potential side effects, safety and the efficacy of the vaccine. She even revealed that she was experiencing some minor symptoms after the inoculation.
