This is very interesting and really hope it’s the direction the virus is going

What's behind the rapid disappearance of the delta variant in Japan? It could be self-extinction.

Many scholars point to a variety of explanations for the sudden end of the fifth wave, but one research group says the coronavirus variant may have actually destroyed itself.

My husband said he had Pfizer like his first and second jabs.

Now we have Omicron-Panic running wild. I wonder what our hospital's intranet news will bring tomorrow.

Numbers of cases are going up, too. CT was over 5% for the test positivity rate the other day. It hasn't been over that for a while.

I keep going back and forth on whether I should delay the booster, hoping for a newer vaccine, or get one as soon as possible-which won't be possible if I don't make up my mind

How long since you got your last shot silva

 

[Chryssie]

I am like you @silva. I need to get the booster but now with that new variant, should we wait?

 

[silva]

seven months. They're saying protection of the booster is dependent on getting it as close to the six month mark, so I do realize I'm compromising myself the longer I wait. It's like gambling on whether something newer will offer more tailored protection, or will a booster of what I have be better>? I don't suppose the booster would negate the ability of another
I think I'll see about an appt though

I'm getting my booster in about an hour.

My best guess is that an improved booster is about 3 months away. you could get one now and the new one later.

I just had Pfizer this time after having AZ the other times. The injection hurt a bit this time. I had to wait 15 mins in the waiting room afterwards this time too.

 

[SuicideBlonde]

As I said I did the booster, pfizer and the flu shot. The lady must have had magic hands, I felt nothing. The j&j shot left my arm swelled for about a week, but only tired with the booster.

I hope it goes well for you with minimal reaction.

According to medical experts ( saw it on a US news channel) people who have received a mix and match with both AZ and either a Moderna or and
Pfizer jab have better protection against Covid.

I have been moving my arm around as the nurse last time said it helps. Can't remember the reason, lol. Just keep waving my arm about every hour or so.

Yes, Raven, you have permission to use the restroom.

I scheduled my booster for the sun after next. Appts are going fast!
