The article links this study from the lancet on the vaccine in question which has the following results.
Other systemic adverse reactions were common in the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 group: muscle ache (294 [60%] participants without paracetamol and 27 [48%] with paracetamol), malaise (296 [61%] and 27 [48%]), chills (272 [56%] and 15 [27%]); and feeling feverish (250 [51%] and 20 [36%]). In the of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 group, 87 (18%) participants without paracetamol and nine (16%) participants with paracetamol reported a temperature of at least 38°C, and eight (2%) patients without paracetamol had a temperature of at least 39°C. In comparison, two (<1%) of those receiving MenACWY reported a fever of at least 38°C, none of whom were receiving prophylactic paracetamol (figure 131604-4/fulltext#fig1); appendix pp 5–731604-4/fulltext#sec1)).
60% chance of muscle aches, 61% chance of malaise, 56% for chills, 51% feeling feverish with 18% chance of a fever above 38 degrees C.
Considering most of positive covid cases are asymptomatic, particularly as a healthy young male, I think I’d rather get my antibodies through natural viral transmission than from this sh*t.
