Get your Covid shots while you can

[Bookreadingliberal53]

There are rumors that the HHS/CDC may limit the vaccine to only 75 and older.
They are going to try to make the argument that the COVID vaccine has killed kids.

1. We got our covid shot a week ago, alongside

the flu shot in the other arm. I need to get the RSV vaccine now.

2. Guns have killed more kids.

But I guess the rwnjs gotta have their priorities.

3. Kennedy's worm is never satisfied!

[canetoad]

28. That's because it's actually

A lamprey. It latches on and never lets go.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. I'm 68 and that makes me a "kid"?

[piddyprints]

5. Got ours a few days ago.

Didn’t want to take any chances.

6. I live in FL. and my primary care doesn't have the Covid vaccine, but does have the rest.

They said they'd know a source of it by Monday and would give me the rx for it. I'm 73, didn't know abaout the killer 75 order. This is really bad. My sister is 70 and already has bad lungs, the same condition that killed our mom. I had a bad reaction when I had Covid and it really messed with my oxygen percentage. Mother fuckers are just trying to kill off the working class/poor any way they freaking can.

9. The age is still 65. I hope you can get it soon.

[lark]

16. Me too!

[modrepub]

18. It's 65

But you can get it if you are immunocompromised or have some other underlying condition. Coworker got his that way. But he also knew the pharmacist.

[lark]

30. I got my rx yesterday, now I have to search for a pharmacy that has it!

FL is such an aggravating state to live. Wish all my family wasn't here because I don't want to leave them. Sigh.

7. The billionaires hate us "Useless eaters"

They need every dollar for their side-projects.

Getting mine in New Jersey this week, and my flu shot six weeks later -- getting it by Halloween has its antibodies fully operational by New Years.

10. I got me and my family vaccinated last week. Thank God we're in NYC where it was super easy.

[CTyankee]

11. Move to a blue state.

For more reasons than getting a Covid shot. But it might save your life.

[Tanuki]

12. I live in Tennessee and got mine at my local CVS on Friday

[CTyankee]

15. That is good to hear!

My hubby lived there several years before he moved here. He still has family in Tennessee. Good people!

[ITAL]

24. My wife and I couldn't get one

Too young and no underlying conditions. And we're in California.

[CTyankee]

25. Perhaps you don't need one.

13. Lymphoma Patient

I plan on getting mine this Saturday.

Can not get it sooner because I had chemotherapy treatment on Friday and my oncologist prefers me to separate a few days between treatment and vaccinations.

My doctor gave me a prescription (live in NC); this was before our Democratic governor, Josh Stein made prescriptions unnecessary.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

14. I will be getting mine September 29th.

Along with the Flu shot.

The Pneumonia shot, will be at my Doctor's office.

[niyad]

17. Got mine last week.

[LostOne4Ever]

19. Got both a prescription and an appointment Wednesday

I also was able to talk my doctors/pharmacists into allowing me to get the Shingles Vaccine early!

[peggysue2]

20. My husband and I got the Shingles vax

That's a two-shot protocol. The first one, then the second (a booster) anywhere from a month to three months later. Our pharmacist recommended three months, so we went with his recommendation.

[LostOne4Ever]

21. I'm planning for the second shot in November

I am so relieved to get this as I’m not sure it will be available when I turn 50 due to RFK jr.

I had a grandmother figure who had Shingles and I NEVER want to experience that!

[peggysue2]

22. My mother-in-law had shingles, too

After witnessing the wretchedness first hand, I decided this was something I wanted to avoid.

She had it on her face, very close to her right eye. The itchiness/pain cycles drove her wild.

Good luck with the vax. My husband and I had no side effects, btw.

[mitch96]

23. I went to three pharmacy here in west central Florida and they did not have the covid vaccine or booster.

They said check back in two weeks... the rump response...two weeks two weeks two weeks...

26. My HMO sent me an email saying they are offering shots to everyone

I got another booster in July.

[mackdaddy]

27. I am 68, in SE Ohio and got mine last week at my Kroger Pharmacy.

They had both Moderna and Pfizer. My previous shots were Moderna so I selected that one.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

29. Wow

[TexasBushwhacker]

31. Got mine! I'm 68

I'm caring for my 96 year old aunt 3 afternoons a week. She had a moderate stroke in her mid brain a couple of weeks ago. I know she will die sooner or later, but I would hate to get COVID-19 and infect her!

[WDLAL]

32. I'm in Texas and received flu and Covid vaccines last week, no questions asked.

[LeftInTX]

33. Oh great. I just got the old one! Not eligible til November.

[avebury]

34. I can't get the new shot

until October 19th.

[Nittersing]

35. Got my covid and flu shots (high dose) yesterday.

In Colorado with Kaiser.
