Do it, man!
Your access to as much Vax as you want is the one (and only) thing I’m mad jealous of in the US.

Edit: Just had dose #2 yesterday and felt like absolute SHITE. But I’d do it again in a heartbeat. No hesitation.

i'd go for either of the mrna shots. just show up at a cvs and say you're immunocompromised, don't elaborate if they ask why.. just go to another store. eventually one won't care and will jab you up.

I transferred teams at work today and it turns out 3 out of the 4 other people on my new team caught covid at the beginning of August. I found this out today when they were all bitching about their hair loss and trading tips on how to regrow it. The sole person who didn't catch it yet probably will soon and is unvaxxed.

Coincidentally about 1/3 of the building's parking spaces have been vacant this week, and we have about 100-150 employees at this site (central IN).

yes, get your booster asap

yeah, check with your local retail pharmacies to see what shot is being given on a particular day. your exact experience will vary based on the pharmacist, but whatever your story is, be prepared enough to answer the basic questions, and stick with your story.

The cvs / Walgreens website says what vaccine they have at each store. In my area cvs is Pfizer only and Walgreens is Moderna and Walmart has both, but the websites are good / detailed

i used walgreens and the registration portal shows what vaccine each branch has. id imagine cvs is similar?

Alright fools who’s ready for somewhat good news!

https://www.bbc.com/news/health-58410354



Kings College in the UK ran a study on long covid where they asked a bunch of people to check in regularly about their symptoms

Not only did being vaccinated cut down the risk of infection, but if you had a breakthrough infection, you were half as likely to have long covid after a month! This is contrary to earlier studies that said you were roughly as likely to have long covid as an unvaxxed person if you had a breakthrough
