I got the J&J months ago. Zero side effects. I have a work related requirement, and getting close to where age becomes a factor.
After some modest research, I wanted this shot since the approach has at least been used and approved once previously. The ebola vaccine uses the viral vector approach and was in trials/testing since at least 2014, with final approval in 2019.
I don't care whether anyone gets the vaccine, and think mandating it for the young is not based on science. Way too much politics. Plus Fauci is a self serving, corrupt POS.
That's the one I got back in March. Injection site soreness and felt a little off a couple days later. I went for real virus. MRNA has been around since the 90s but from what I've read it hasn't been widely used. No booster.
I never felt the shot. Had 3 days of flu like symptoms. 2nd day the injection site was "hard" and hot but no pain at all. Buddy at work and his wife who got it his arm was sore for a week, she was vomiting for 2 days. Everyone reacts differently I guess.
Two of my brothers got the J&J. One got severe alternating chills/sweats, muscle aches, headache, fever for two days after. The other had a headache for the afternoon and into the evening the day of the shot and felt fine the next morning.
One of the many F'ups of this deal: The 2nd shot needs to be 2-3 months after, not one.
"When a booster of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine was given six months after the single shot, antibody levels increased nine-fold one week after the booster and continued to climb to 12-fold higher four weeks after the booster. All rises were irrespective of age."
What happens if the virus mutates during that six months? I didn't see any claim of COVID-19 immunity on J&J's website.

It already mutated during the time period of the study, Delta. And the results reflect its ability to deal with said variant. Others? Guess we'll find out.

I've not seen anyone claim that any of the shots are immunizations.
