Did he/she say for how long? Mine told me to wait at least a month. She also said there is now a shot that is a one and done forever. Well, who knows they could change their minds later about that. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Shingrix experience was far stronger than my Moderna experience, and I would gladly go through both again to avoid getting sick with Covid or with Shingles. And I get a flu shot every year. I want to be healthy, myself, and I want everyone else to be safe from coronavirus, too. That seems to make me an outlier on many of these CC threads, and that saddens me. It saddens me too, MM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seany527 Posted April 16, 2021 #79 Share Posted April 16, 2021 So 2, plus the booster, equals 3. How many more do I need before I can go on a cruise, or is 3 enough? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were still in the thick of the virus. His main concern was that the side effects might mimic the covid symptoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon The housing market is out of control because everyone wants to leave big cities . Now that so many are working remotely they no longer need to live close to the office and they are finding that they need more work space. Also during the thick of the pandemic they realized that a yard is now important, just like a balcony cabin is now a must have for us in the future. Since they are working remotely they can also take their NY salary to a state like Florida buy more house for their money and not have to pay state tax. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason to be wearing masks to begin with, none the less when vaccinated. The lady doth protests too much, me thinks. -Hamlet (or perhaps in this case, the gentleman doth protests too much) I was shown an interesting psychological study the other day that studied the behavior of anti mask wearing and anti vaccination people in the world of covid. It concluded that many of the anti-maskers/anti-vaxxers are the ones that are actually terrified of the virus, using chest pumping bravado to cover up their anxiety over the virus. Ignoring science and defying health and safety protocols is a coping mechanism to try to prove to themself that the virus is not real and won't "get" them.

Given your username I would have thought you would be in favor of masks. 😐 Of course there is no reason to wear a mask when one does not care about anyone else. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As many as are needed until people start following science and we get to herd immunity and no longer have hosts to allow the virus to mutate. Right now the variants are multiplying, necessitating boosters. The booster that Pfizer is trialing is for the current variants. Moderna is also working on a booster, hoping to incorporate it into the flu vaccine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
