That "booster shot" IS confusing me as usual...

https://www.ncoa.org/article/covid-booster-shot-do-i-need-it

What "categories"? See the paragraph on who gets it? Honor system? no questions asked? sept 20? 8 months after the last shot?...its approved? its not approved? theres all kinds of "links" with all kinds of information....take your pick...helluva way to run a railroad......yesterday the drugstore where i got the shots basically said "no"...mebbe later we'll be at Walmart...see what they say...

At this point we are not allowed the booster. We are not in any of the allowed groups.

I got my Pfizer booster this week. You should be fine, however, I wouldn't plan on going to work or doing anything big the next day. My reaction didn't start until then and I had to call out of work for the first time in 2 years due to a low-grade temp. I also had headaches, chills, fatigue, pain at injection site, and body pain. I had some of those before with the second dose, but it wasn't nearly as bad in terms of intensity. Compared to the second dose, it was a cakewalk. Still not pleasant, but better than an ventilator! Plus, the side effects weren't anything unexpected or unlisted on the CDC website.

Take it easy the rest of the week. I'm just starting to get my energy back now (Saturday) and I had the shot on Wednesday.

The most annoying side effect for me was being up all night with the chills!

I found it, and other links explaining it. . Good thing you got it BEFORE the FED muddied the waters as they have. Millions of folks who got MODERNA are still waiting for the BS to settle.. As i mentioned before, when i had a face to face with an honest pharmacist,, the whole thing is bs.............GOOD LUCK!! wife took the same journey...11 years cancer free..............

Thanks...tried to find that reference and couldn't..that website is endless.....would appreciate the link......so far, can't find anyone willing to give MODERNA as a booster until the powers that be approve it. for any reason. only thing available seems to be Pfizer. Hard to believe JH would give it out until officially blessed. Would be extremely interested to see it....

Go to JohnHopkins.org and read covid 19 update. Has info on boosters, ie third shot.

Asked first in Walmart but I had just got shingles shot and had to wait 14 days. Was on vacation and in a Publix store and asked their pharmacy. Have underlying condition and no problem. As I said in a previous post wanted to get it done before WH got involved and it wasn't a problem.

Per my post before, looks like Johns Hopkins will give Pfizer or Moderna too.

I think if you want it you can get it.

I am not sure if I can but if possible I will try to copy and paste the letter from JH so you can see it.

Would you care to explain how you got the MODERNA "BOOSTER" in AUGUST which still hasn't been approved by anybody yet?

I'm scheduled for Pfizer #3 on 10-6-21. Just got tested yesterday and am still covid nega-

tive. I'm an old geezer, so I qualify. Looking forward to it. Happy

Got an email from my doctors at John's Hopkins giving blessing to anyone over 6 months from 2nd dose for Pizer and Moderna. My oncologist had already said yes to Moderna booster so we got it in August. Oncologist and GP both were in favor.

She may be right...or not....I'm still waiting on an officially blessed MODERNA whatever they call it today shot..latest is "they" think all you need is a 1/2 dose of that..(because its ever so potent?) I'd be curious to learn the number of break thru cases based on the flavor of shot you got...after one?? after two??...you KNOW they know.....sorry....I forgot myself......in the meantime.....c'mon down...we got heat to spare.....altho, its actually starting to cool down around here...sorta..
