Hello everyone,

I hope you're doing well! emoticon cute

As you all may have heard, there has been discussion both in the US and in other countries about  a COVID-19 vaccine booster vaccine to be potentially launched in the fall, as cases of the Delta variant escalate around the globe.  The CDC has not yet taken a firm stance on necessity of a booster dose, as researchers are still gathering information and learning more about:

  • long-lasting protection of the different vaccines,
  • protection against COVID variants, and
  • further protecting those who may be immunocompromised.

What do you all think about this news? If you were offered a booster shot would you go for it? Do you have any concerns about an additional shot?

Feel free to discuss here!

Take care,
Courtney

The boosters are safe as any vaccine. There is no perfect vaccine in the world. The boosters are essential to keep the antibodies in your system. Why take the first two shots to let those antibodies die a couple years later? This is not going away anytime soon it appears. We have a new variant beginning. The booster seems to do baetter with it. It is easier to catch but no not many get real sick but I have been told any variant may well be the death sentence. Therefore I do what I can to make sure.

@ I am understanding the fourth booster plans are very good against these new variants.
