Eric LawtonJust plain "no".
Because I can't get another until late December because I got one in late June.
Taylor@farbel I believe here in Ontario it’s every 6 months. I’m due at the start of September.
Monica Rooney@TWDickson @farbel they tried to turn me away today (I got mine last December) but I insisted because we have 4 kids in school. I also insisted that they boost my kids who hadn’t had a shot since December.
Ursidinoj/The Bjornsdottirs@farbel Probably not. Just the pfaff of actually going out, as well as getting a needle put in me somewhere it's not likely anyone's going to be wearing a mask, so a minuscule risk I'll get injected with the virus as well as the vaccine I'm there for? I'll pass. Now, video-assisted self-administration I'd do, but that's not a thing, and understandably so with forgery risks and all.
Daigoro Toyama (he/him)@farbel Yes. I have taken all the COVID-19 vaccine shots available and will continue to.
Michael Stanclift@farbel @constantorbit I got one today and I hope to get a newer one around Xmas time
Dodo & the Brawn@farbel I don't know if I can and the pediatrician isn't recommending any for the kids.
Grassroots JoeHas everyone had a dose of the bivalent booster?
CDC recommends everyone get that.
@joeinwynnewood @dodoandthebrawn Got it in Feb.
@joeinwynnewood @farbel I'll have to find out which series the baby got, but his last was end of May, so he wouldn't be ready for another one yet. The rest of us have had the bivalent.
I've moved to @joeinwynnewood They do? Can you point me to the new guidelines? I can't find anything about it online and my husband couldn't get one before.
Tim_Eagon@farbel I get flu shots every year, so why not one for a disease that is still deadlier.
geographile@Tim_Eagon @farbel my rheumatologist pretty much won't let me out the door without a flu shot. I trust him completely.
FirefighterGeek 
@farbel I'll follow the cdc guidelines. That likely means covid booster and flu vaccine. Probably get both on the same day.
@FirefighterGeek I got the flu shot, the covid shot, and my second shingles shot all in one day last august. Knocked me for a loop.
@farbel I did flu and shingles together, and I've done flu and covid together, but never the trifecta. I'd already had shingles before though so not sure it was the same kind of reaction.
Mary Beth Frezon@farbel Yes in fact I told my 93 yo mom that we should get our booster bivalent this coming week. Last year we got the bivalent right after it came out and got our flu shot at the same time. No big problem but we are going to spread it out a little this year.
Eric Vitiello
Ricki Yasha Tarr@farbel I get every vaccine I can, I keep angling for the shingles one, but the doc says I'm too young.
Obsolete@RickiTarr @farbel
I got the shingles shots and the first one was the worst! My arm all the way up into my neck was sore for days

@SNerd @RickiTarr The second one got me. But I took it along with a flu shot and a covid shot.
@geographile @SNerd @RickiTarr Agreed. Most painful thing I've ever experienced. I had it on my face.
Callalily@tootcat💙💛😺@SNerd @RickiTarr @farbel
I got that last year. It hurt worse than the covid shot. I felt like I got the flu for a few days.

@farbel
And flu and any other vaccine I can get. I’m a radical vaxxer!

Stacey Campbell@farbel I'll take it in the eyeball if that's the only way they're doing it this time.
Texty the Bard@farbel I should have been eligible for another bivalent booster this spring but every place I tried to go wouldn't let me have it, because I didn't fit a very narrow definition of immunocompromised. (Never mind that I'm diabetic and have a handful of other illnesses that make COVID dangerous for me.) I'm glad there's a new one coming out, though, and I'm beyond ready for it.
@farbel My bigger concern is how best to handle my baby daughter's first rounds. She becomes eligible at the end of the month, but our pediatrician does the three-shot Pfizer (bivalent, at least) protocol, meaning she won't be fully vaxed until Thanksgiving. But since there's no telling when/whether the new one will be authorized for babies, I guess that's our only option. I was really hoping we could finally get her out and socializing, dangit.
14mission@farbel Can I? Am I supposed to?
@14mission I believe the answers are yes, and it's up to you.

Humble Fan of Atty. Woowhat??? Do I look stupid or careless? I get every booster they allow, every 6 months. carry on
Darwin Woodka@farbel just did!
Arthur Wyatt@farbel eligibility nonsense allowing.
Idealistic Pragmatist 
Bob JonkmanNo, but only because I got mine on Monday.
In Ontario they're trying very hard to discourage people from getting their boosters. I had one last October, so should have been eligible in March, but the rules changed and I wouldn't be until I turn 65. But the rules changed again, so now I was eligible again.
But at the clinic both nurses tried very hard to get me to delay until the fall, "when Covid will be more prevalent again." No thanks, I'd rather be immunized *before* that happens.
FX Toledo@farbel And the influenza one.
Saustrup@farbel Already had 4 shots. Last one more than a year ago. Haven't decided if it's going to be an regular thing.
Craig Grannell@farbel 100% no. But only because my government won’t even let people buy one, let alone offer them for free to the under-75s. Yet I’ll be strongly encouraged to get a flu shot. :/
Rachel Andrew@craiggrannell @farbel I came here to say the same thing. Why they don't make them available privately is bizarre at this point. If they don't think it's worth funding by the NHS, make it like the flu shot for people who aren't high risk.
@craiggrannell @farbel I may see if I can get one in the US, but as a highly allergic person that seems a little risky, I'd much rather be at home if my body decides it's going to be fun to freak out about it!
@rachelandrew @farbel If you have major allergies, see if that might qualify you on the NHS. It’s a long shot but that can be a way in.
I was mulling over seeing if I could get a shot in Spain earlier this year, but it appears that’s very much citizens only, alas. (I’d have paid, obvs.)
