Online appt, clicked 3rd Moderna, here's your appointment time, nothing on forms asked condition, pharmacy didnt ask, Publix

I asked my Dr, was taking predisone earlier, she said go for it, called pharmacist, he said no problem, you should be good to go.

Alrighty then

Same effects as first two, sore arm, tired, slight fever for a day, nothing else
