another booster from Moderna and Pfizer coming?

Posted by tchrart @tchrart, Apr 24, 2023

I’m glad to hear another Covid booster will be made available for those in high risks.
Being 80+ and diabetic am glad to read this.
For those who claim to be vaccine overloaded, don’t get the booster, but please stop complaining about getting another “shot”.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Post-COVID Recovery & COVID-19 Support Group.

I’m also going to get a booster shot in May, I don’t mind saying that I’m worried, I don’t have issues with the vaccines and I’ve had 4 but I had covid infection last November and still feeling symptoms from it which I mentioned in earlier posts. I read somewhere that a person who was suffering from long covid had another vaccine and their symptoms cleared up, God willing, I will keep my fingers crossed. In our case we are older and covid can be very lethal so I guess having symptoms from the vaccine is the trade off but I’m still praying it won’t further aggravate the situation, amen.

I wouldn't make any comment on those that do follow your advice or not. I'm 76 took my original two Moderna vaccine shots and religiously took an additional three boosters. Then less than 2 weeks after my third booster - caught Covid and now for over a year have been battling "Long Covid" - that appears to be severe pain and all the typical covid symptoms, and might be a side affect from the vaccines - boosters. I don't really know if I actually caught covid or was it my immune system going bonkers from the booster/vaccine? In any case, the medical profession is playing dumb, the pharmaceutical industry is not releasing side effects on their medicine (You know the 2 minutes after the 30 second add you see on tv for drugs). I'm waiting on the government to step up and give us an intellectual opinion on the 4th booster - after all they decided to stop testing - was it because covid was over or they really didn't want us to know what they left us in?

I wouldn't wait for the government approval or believe their opinion. I will not take another Covid Vaccine. I also have Long Covid.

Do what you think is best for yourself.

I have had the previous vaccines and boosters. I had my first bout of covid before the vaccine was available to me. I had my second bout of covid about two months after my last booster. I will be getting this vaccine when it is available.

If you want to find out if you have had covid, have your doctor order a serum antibody blood test.
