    The only way to know is to find out, dummy.  If the symptoms go away quickly, it's probably side effects of the vax.  If they stick around, it's probably the virus.

    Hard to tell but either way you'll be getting immunity.

    If they arose right after you got the vaccine and they cleared up in a few days, they are side effects of the vaccine.

    I ran a low-grade fever for a few days after I got my first dose.  I simply knew this was a result of the vaccine. Not a big deal.
