SIL is being forced to get vaccine for army reserve. He has been fighting this for a long time but is finally going to submit. :( What have I read here on suggestions of what to take afterwards to hopefully mitigate the side effects? Please no shaming. I'm trying not to worry.

David Hackworth said something along the lines of, everybody's sanity is like a bottle rocket, you never know when or how much until it goes off. Even the calmest soldier, you can never tell.
Anyways, my advice is: wait and see if he gets messed up by the injection. Don't marry him if he does. Cruel but practical. You told him your thoughts, his choices he pays, you don't pay.
I agree with the David Hackworth bit you wrote. When I was was in the military I saw the same thing with individuals. Having to spend 6-months temporary duty assigned to work under the NIS, I saw a lot of individuals get busted for drugs, some of which 'looked' like they'd never 'rat' out their connections, but did unexpectedly. It's amazing what duress does to people.
