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

Yep, still qualify.

The whole thing is very tiresome....folks really can't totally ignore the "pronouncements" from whatever group or individual has the media's attention for the moment...truthful or not, well meaning or not, even totally rediculously fake......lots of folks will believe it.....or not...we can get along reasonably well from day-to-day, but its this cruising thing that puts us "out there"....I suppose we'll get the next round of whatever they're being called when they become available without having to do voodoo...at this moment intend to get them AFTER ours of 11/27, for a variety of reasons, none of which are probably true. and subject to change without notice hehehe....

As an aside, I happen to be a big college football fan (not the NFL), along with NASCAR (I like the wrecks)....and its clear to me that millions of people go to these affairs every weekend, no masks or social distancing in sight....I cannot believe they're ALL that dumb...just refuse to believe it...therefore......

You said it Yankee. Another thread to watch.

Yeh I saw that...Subject to further announcements....whatever.............been doing some research to satisfy my curiosity...seems like about a million folks + already got their 3rd whatever you want to call em...some states have a "system", most do not...some states are working on some kind of registry, most are not...sounds like a free-for-all, and "the Fed" (whatever group has the microphone today) makes up the rules as they go along....clearly, it'll cause nothing but more divisiveness....you can't even get a variety of "experts" to agree on the long term effectiveness of the shots already given as time passes....

Latest update: The FDA has just advised that the Pfizer 'booster' only be given to those

who have had the first two Pfizer shots and are over 65.

Yer killin me...did you forget where you are? nice to have you in our little asylum BILGE....

To clarify: I did get the first two jabs and am now awaiting scheduling of the third. When #3 is available to me, it will also be available to everyone else. I don't get 'front of the line' privileges because I am a participant and I don't know what the qualifications will be when it is offered.

Happy to see you could have got the jab, booster, third shot. Too confusing!! Figure it will be worse when the WH gets involved, again. Have a great cruise.

I don't know if I'm getting any special consideration but I really don't think so. I guess the only advantage is that I can call Pfizer direct and get a straightforward answer to my questions. To me that is a great little advantage especially when you look at all the bull chips that are spread as 'facts' in the media and on forums similar to this.

My jollies come from knowing that with my miniscule participation in the study I have helped to develop the first useable vaccine for Covid 19. I trust Pfizer as one of the largest pharmaceutical/research companies in the world.

Yes the vaccine was developed rapidly (by necessity). But I assure you and everyone else, there were no shortcuts and that is a stupid reason to listen to the nonsense that it was developed too fast and is therefore no good.

I've had many vaccines over my lifetime and always to my benefit. I even had polio one year before the Salk vaccine came out. But you can bet I got the vaccine ASAP thereafter because my parents were deeply concerned about my life and health.

And at five years old, I well remember that pandemic, the quarantine, the iron lungs, the Sister Kenney treatment, learning to walk again, the PT, etc .

I am appalled at the amount of ignorance, lies, and misinformation that circulates in our society. Don't fall for it.

Buck up! Get shot! Don't cry! You might even get a lollipop for being a big boy or girl.

Now off my soapbox!

Outstanding, and thanks!...are your protocols different than the general public as a participant in their study? Seems like you could get a shot regardless....(I know as a participant in their study, you wouldn't....)

Nice to get the "official poop".....its appreciated....
