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

I have been a participant in the Pfizer study since last September. I just called my Pfizerites

to see when I would get my third, booster, etc. shot. The study-ers are meeting this Friday and I will be notified soon thereafter. That is the absolute latest word from Pfizer to me.

This update is now 20 minutes old.

I will re-post with the latest news when I receive it.

Be safe. Get shot.

Just came back from Walmart...just so happens we just switched our scrips to the local Walmart from CVS...more convenient, nicer people (believe it or not)....had one of my patented conversations with one of the pharmacists...not crowded at all..nobody standing around us...middle aged guy who knew his business......had the time to "understand each other" if ye follow...never heard of anything in our state re 1a. or b or whatever...mebbe it exists here mebbe not...asked him what the difference was between a booster and a 3rd shot...he laffed out loud and shook his head...I got the message.......asked him if they had them...said at the moment he can give out Pfizer for boosters or "third shots", but had Moderna for those who wanted it for their first (and therefore second) shot. Asked him just how sick I had to be to get a shot...(why does that sound like some of the BS I was getting when I tried to get one of those 15min tests for the cruise????)....I thought he would choke he was laffing so hard....So yes CRUISELLAMA, I could've "gotten anything you want at Alice's restaurant...." I commented..."honor system eh?".. all he did was look me dead in the eye and said ..."YEP"....

We decided not to get them at this time, or even in another month when we become "legal"...lets see what happens AFTER our cruise of 11/27 and "the tests"...hate to generate a false positive due to the shot...no I didn't read that anywhere, just going from day to day with whatever BS comes out in the news....

I think the whole thing is outrageous...top to bottom, beginning to end.....I commented awhile back that it sounded to me like the better you could lie the easier it would be to hack your way thru the so-called vaccination/testing system..that may have outraged a few honest folks in here (you know who you are heheheh)...unfortunately, it was also the truth. Check that...there is NO system.....

I'm in group 1A to get the shot (if they intend to release them next week like they've been saying), thanks to working in healthcare. As of right now, we don't have a set date until the state says that they'll be giving the booster shots, but when I spoke to our Infection Preventionist this week, she mentioned that we would be able to get them as soon as the state gives us a date.

Went to a Walgreens for my flu shot and asked about the booster. They're already giving it to those who are immune compromised. But sounded like if you wanted one they'd jab you. You get the one that matches the original brand.

Thanks...no running around at this time to get the so-called "booster"...just read where its sposed to NOT even be called that...just a "third" shot.

I know there isn't a definative answer at this time. And I also know, not every state is following the same guidelines. Like I mentioned on another thread, I found it by chance when looking on line. We were happy to get it done before the "mad rush". There is still a lot of controversy about the need. Good luck in your search.
