    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.

    Pfizer is the same amount of the original. Moderna is half dose of the original.

    I got J&J last April and then got a full dose moderna in august. I am planning to get a Pfizer booster two weeks from Friday. That will be about 8 months since my last shot and ten days before I have to go to nyc for work. Since I’ll be on planes and sitting in a crowded conference room for two days it seems logical to get shot before that.

    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.

    Party hardy in close quarters!

    ”booster” term seems to be used for 2nd and 3rd doseage.

    I only use the term for 3rd or more doses.
