I had a pretty severe fever after my last tetanus booster shot; and my first CureVac shot (mRNA, https://www.curevac.com/en/covid-19/) gave me an atrocious 40 degree fever (that's 104F for the differently-scaled). I'm sure they don't just …. add up, but I can't imagine having a good reaction to both at the same time.

My wife recently had her TDAP booster and had a stronger reaction to that than to her COVID shot -- she had a fever and body aches for a couple days.
