I had the original Pfizer Covid vaccines and never have had a booster. I'm not convinced about the boosters either. I have had vaccines for shingles and pneumonia (last year) due to recurrent pneumonias since 2020. Last one was a year ago. Praying never again. I had the flu in February (1st time in like forever) and have never had the flu shot. I'm not anti vax by no means but no pro taking every vaccine out there either. Will be reading more about them for sure.

Yes, am doing that also. I had 3 as I work as a nurse and ended with COVID last Christmas . And I know others who had the same.

Hopefully doing all things to protect ourselves that we know to do....hand washing, distancing, mask wearing (N95 for me), nebulizing, eating well, supplements like D and C etc. etc., help those of us that do decide to limit certain vaccines.
I had not had Covid until Feb. 2024 and it happened after three visits to the Mercy Hospital Pulmonary Rehab facility that did not require mask wearing. I was immediately concerned but said to myself, foolishly, surely they know what they are doing. Well they obviously didn't care about all of us with lung problems. I wound up in the hospital ER. It took me 24 to 48 hours to feel absolutely fine and stopped the Paxlovid early, my choice, my risk. P.S. I called two departments including the manager of the pulmonary rehab department and got nothing but 'cover up' excuses that they apparently felt would seem logical to me. I understand from a person that posts on this Mayo that one of the NY Pulmonary Rehab facilities they went to requires mask wearing.
So, beware.....don't fall down as I did when I allowed myself to foolishly believe they knew best, knew what they are doing....in not requiring mask wearing.
