Hi @pu8909
How are you doing today?
Here is the CDC site for RSV vaccinations: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/rsv/public/older-adults.html Maybe you can find some helpful information on this site. You can always take preventative measures (washing hands regularly, masking in high risk areas) to avoid getting the virus.
I will also tag a few other Carenity members who may be able o share some experiences.
Have you gotten RSV? What was it like? How long did it take to resolve? Did you get the RSV vaccine?

Hi -
I am really worried about getting RSV. I got COVID and it nearly took me out.
I'm not in the suggested group for getting the RSV vaccine but I think I may ask for it- What has everyone else done? Have you gotten the RSV vaccine?
