Sophia is a 16-year-old who spoke with Oregon Health Authority about her vaccination experience. As an athlete she said that she felt sore like she would after a really good workout.

Sophia said, “It didn’t bother me too much to get the vaccine because it’s going to help open up schools especially and ultimately will help the whole society in general to go back to some sense of normalcy.”
