Was the peanut butter shot around back in your day?
And did you see Pearl Harbor movie, when Ben Affleck got more than 1 vaxxx.
No. We got the Gamma globulin (GG) shot when I first had to get deployment/mobility immunizations. It does something similar, in that you get a really painful knot at the injection site that feels like a 2-3 inch round rock under the skin. Luckily, it was in the arm, not "in the butt, Bob." (Reference to The Newly Wed Game bloopers

)
The GG vaccine was replaced by the HEP A vaccine. It lasts longer, and protects against most of the same germs as GG. I have to look it up, but IIRC, if you get the HEP A "version" that requires a 6-month 1-time booster, it's a lifetime deal. GG, OTH, was a 1 year vaccine.
The sickest I ever got was from the Yellow Fever vaccine. They claimed they only gave it on a specific day each week (Fridays) because they had to have enough recipients to use up a vial. It can't be stored once it's opened, because it's a live virus.
My theory is they chose Friday so you suffer the symptoms the shot caused all weekend -- high fever, major aches, sleep all day, .... By Monday, I was okay to go to work -- no missed duty time! Bastards.
