@mfennvt Novavax is less reactogenic (fewer side effects) than mRNA covid vaccines. https://ir.novavax.com/press-releases/2025-04-15-SHIELD-Utah-Study-Shows-Novavaxs-COVID-19-Vaccine-Induces-Lower-Reactogenicity-Symptoms-Compared-to-mRNA. I have had every covid vaccine available and Novavax is my preferred bc the mRNA vaccines affect me a full day out, some people for days. https://ir.novavax.com/press-releases/2025-04-15-SHIELD-Utah-Study-Shows-Novavaxs-COVID-19-Vaccine-Induces-Lower-Reactogenicity-Symptoms-Compared-to-mRNA. The protein-based Novavax vaccine also has a broader coverage of variant subtypes https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2215509, so. the JN.1 based vaccine will cover the variants that branch out after it.

I had a bad reaction to the Pfizer COVID vaccine, so I asked the HSE for Nuvavax

This year in Galway it’s being distributed through mobile vaccination units. Two lovely people came to my house and gave me the shot in the comfort of my home. It took about 15 minutes, most of it was paperwork.

In 2023 I had to go to their centre in Tuam to get Nuvavax, so this is a huge improvement.

So if you don’t want Pfizer, you can ring the HSE and request a Nuvavax booster.

⚠️ HOWEVER
I will go so far as to say MOST of the sites listed do not mention covid vaccines on their pages
Even if you can read enough Japanese to navigate them, you will likely need to make phone calls to confirm

☝️ ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE
For Kostaive vaccines specifically, you will need to click on the square with the building icon that says (コスタイベ筋注用) and search from the drop-down menus there (Don't worry about the 問い合わせはこちら; the label placement is just unintuitive)

Because Kostaive is still less popular than the other major vaccines, there are some locations which will only offer the shot in even numbers (for stocking reasons)
For the location I asked myself, they said you may make an appointment as a single person, but if no one else does the same for that day, you will have to cover the cost yourself (essentially risking paying double) 2/2
