So real quick: Looking to get my booster today. I'm originally Team Pfizer.

[Tommy Carcetti]

Any benefits to getting a Moderna booster if offered, or should I stick with Pfizer all the way through?

ON UPDATE: They automatically gave me Pfizer. I guess it was for the sake of continuity. Don’t really mind, although I was kind of curious about the Moderna experience….

1. I crossed streams - went from Pfizer to Moderna

A nurse practitioner friend I consulted, along with what I've read, made it seem like a wash either way.

I had minor side effects.

2. 2 shots plus booster. Never a side effect here.

Slight sore arm for less than 24 hrs although the second shot hurt a little more. A guy I know got booster yesterday, he's sick as a dog today.

3. I stuck with Pfizer.

No reaction to any of them.

4. My doctor's office is not

giving the shots but since I see him this Wednesday I will ask him what he would advise for me. I also received the Pfizer shots.

5. Got my Pfizer booster Saturday

The first Pfizer two shots were meh, a bit of lethargy after the second shot, but nothing to moan about. After Saturday's booster, I have some soreness at the injection site, was feeling cold much of the day Sunday (unusual for me), and felt a little punk this morning. But again, nothing to moan about.

Treat yourself kindly, and if you can, take some time off.

6. I found out local Publix pharmacies were giving shots, both for flu and Covid.

The one closest to me that had Pfizer was fully booked on Friday, November 12th, which was my first eligible day. They told me I could try one further from town, and they weren't even very busy, so I got the shot about noon. My ex had hers the previous Wednesday, got very ill, 101 temp and almost no strength the next day. She wanted me to get the shot on a Friday in case she had to help me over the weekend when she would be available. I had hardly any symptoms, which I think annoyed her somewhat.
Make sure someone is on hand in case you have a bad reaction, like my ex did.

7. I'm going to stick with what I started with...Moderna.

My appointment’s not until Dec. 8. Although they say you can mix and match, I’m not comfortable personally doing that.

8. Moderna booster 1/2 the dose used for the first 2 shots. No data on that dose after Pfizer

[madville]

9. I originally got the J&J shot and got a second one recently

The effectiveness is almost on par with the others after a second dose

10. Just scheduled my booster today

I’ve had 2 Moderna shots and my booster will be, too. So thankful..

11. Three Pfizers And No Side Effects

[Dr. Strange]

12. Mine were all Moderna.

Whatever you do: DRINK WATER. STAY HYDRATED.
I didn't pay attention to fluid intake and I was feeling crappy the next day.

13. stick with pfizer

I suggest just stick with pfizer, Moderna is similar but at 3 times the amount of mRNA more resulting stuff for your body to clear. The study of the mix and match was just 50 of each combo so not a lot of data to draw from.

14. UPDATE:

They automatically gave me Pfizer. I guess it was for the sake of continuity. Don’t really mind, although I was kind of curious about the Moderna experience….

15. Got Pfizer for all three shots

When I got my booster only Pfizer was doing them and I didn't want to wait.
