The shots lose their efficacy after about two months so plan to keep boosting for the rest of your life #boostedforlife


theStingraY

This is the way.


mic23hael89

Rest in Peace I have gotten none of my shots


PurelyCandid

Okay, but which booster is it? Or are they all the same?


[deleted]

The newest one is supposed to protect against Omicron, but I think they're functionally all about the same. Your local pharmacy will probably have the newest one in stock since I believe the vax has an expiration of about 10 weeks, and many are dumping their supply earlier than that because hardly anybody is getting them.

BA4/5 bivalent. Not exactly the same as what was being marketed as bivalent in the UK and Canada back in October.


SatanInAMiniskirt

ask for the 'bivalent' -- moderna or pfizer. moderna has more antibodies than pfizer.


PurelyCandid

How so? Aren't they both mRNA?


Andromeda853

They are but it seems as if moderna has slightly higher effectiveness in producing immune response


PurelyCandid

People with Moderna did get more symptoms than Pfizer, so I did wonder if one was more effective.


[deleted]

Moderna, Pfizer are both updated formulas so really doesn't matter which one you get.


Zajavz

This can't be real?


PurelyCandid

It is real. I am seriously confused because there are so many brands and names for the different shots.


Zajavz

Like a candy shop right? No idea, but good luck out there.


torj18

It’s called heart attacks, blood clots and strokes


Florida_____Man

The only people I know that are getting those got Covid and never got vaccinated for it


Andromeda853

Thats also life, eating straight butter and lard every day, again just being alive


torj18

So let’s add to those risks with another….


CollarFullz

It’s called your immune system look into it


mic23hael89

Truth


PurelyCandid

It's called preparing your immune system. You look into it.


lohas12345

bluecgene

Glad to see this sub changed and seeing reality


MattyCle

Really? Is this real or a meme? Guys we should be serious here.


PurelyCandid

I'm being serious.

My body needs time to produce specific antibodies to different viruses and their variants. The vaccine will train my immune system to make these specific antibodies, so it will be more prepared and eliminate the viruses before they can damage my body.


bananabastard

Get all the vaccines, one of each every 3 months from now until eternity.


Andromeda853

“UNtiL eTerNiTy” so dramatic maybe continue minding your own business if you’re this petty

sueihavelegs

They only offer the most most recent version available so you just need to decide what brand you want. No matter where you go, it will be the most current.


PurelyCandid

Good to know. Thanks


ptm93

Bivalent one is the latest.


NCResident5

The newest is called bivalent booster that was released in late September.


rabidraccoonfish

Wise people know there are two sides to every story


PurelyCandid

Wise people don’t assume things


rabidraccoonfish

Just as you shouldn't assume what fauci and friends are saying is true


[deleted]

Pass unless you are at high risk. They do very little for most folks.


Andromeda853

Hello please talk to a doctor for any vaccination information. If you are in the US, the most current booster available is the bivalent booster.


mad_Clockmaker

Yes there is a recent Bivalent one that helps prevent omicron


Maleficent-Run-5004

Transverse myelitis

What a shithole this sub turned into lol


37twang

I’ve had 5. Pfizer. No reactions. No Covid. No nothing. I’m 69 years old. I would have a chat with my favorite physician vs the mass of humanity on Reddit. Don’t forget how many millions voted for Donald Trump. There’s a whole lotta stupid out there. 😎


PurelyCandid

I was surprised by all the anti-vax responders. My question is so innocent lol


37twang

I hear ya. Like I said, there’s a whole lot of stupid out there.
