Pretty sure I caught headline saying Biden got his second booster today. I'm vaxxed and boosted, but have not decided yet when or if to get the second booster. It seems like closer to fall would be more appropriate, although they may offer another booster then. The local paper here says it's the first time the major hospital did not have a Covid patient in ICU.
Are these boosters just less of the original formula or are they something different? At some point, seems like more of the same wouldn't be very effective.
I fit the criteria for a third Pfizer shot and so I’m going to get one soon.
I’m looking toward New England for producing some sensible Republicans because I’m not sure the Midwest will do it.Quote:

I had my booster in October. When I do get another one it will be Moderna which is new for me. I read that getting the opposite of your other ones gives your immune system a better boost.
I read that getting the virus plus a vaccine is the best protection of all and gives you "super immunity" because having had the disease primes you against the entire virus, not just the spike protein.Quote:
