I just recieved the latest Covid19 booster shot [View all]

Last edited Wed Sep 10, 2025, 03:17 PM - Edit history (1)

I am in SE Ohio and my local Kroger Pharmacy had both the Moderna and Pfizer in stock that they just got in this week. I am over 65 and they mentioned they would get it in when I was picking up an Rx a week ago.

They had all my insurance on file but I do not have a part D drug policy right now. But they said it was covered so I just filled out a form and then they have a small room where the pharmacist comes and gives the shot.

It has been about 24 hours and some mild discomfort at the injection site like I had bumped it, but nothing noticeable otherwise. I think it has been two years since my last booster, but I thought I better get one while the getting was good with this moron gang in office.

This is important to me as in 2021 my 87year old mother was in an ICU ward from a month with COVID and recovered somewhat but passed six months later from the overall degradation to her health.

My next physical is in about a month, so I will probably do the flu shot then, so this is a good spacing.
