Ozzy Osbourne says he feels "relieved" after receiving the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
During a Valentine's Day, February 14, interview on British talk show "Loose Women," the rock icon appeared alongside his wife Sharon Osbourne to discuss his experience receiving the shot.
"It felt like I was being stabbed," said Ozzy. "My arm was sore yesterday, but I'm glad I got it, you know?"
"As soon as I got it, I felt relieved," he added.
Meanwhile, Sharon noted that she'll get the vaccination in the coming weeks.
Recently, Ozzy revealed that he wanted to receive the vaccine because of his health issues.
"I want to get the shot," he told SiriusXM. "I look at it like this -- if I don't get the shot and I get the virus, there's a good chance I ain't going to be here."
Last December, Sharon tested positive for COVID-19 and was briefly hospitalized with the virus.
"I wanted to share I've tested positive for Covid 19," she revealed on social media. "After a brief hospitalization, I'm now recuperating at a location away from Ozzy (who has tested negative) while The Talk is on scheduled hiatus. Everyone please stay safe and healthy."
