CDC Says Anxiety Causes Some COVID Vaccine Side Effects, Not The Shot Itself

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says some short-term side effects some people experience after getting the coronavirus vaccine are anxiety-related.

This includes fainting, dizziness, nausea, racing hearts or even chest pain.

They add that fainting was more common after the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
