I know I will!
This will be covid vaccine #7 for me.

A new covid vaccine is coming out in September! Will you get it?

You should get it Brian. Because I'll probably be giving Covid to your mom.
One of the better long game trolls on the board.
Along with my annual flu shot. Simple decision.
COVID vaccine has now become basically like the flu shot. Would be cool if they could combine them.
I'm a strapping young lad. So, no - don't plan to.
Maybe I'll ask that the hand of god protect me as a backup. Anybody have his number?

What the hell does Diego Maradona have to do with this?
(For the non soccer afficionados Diego Maradona scored this goal in the quarters of a world cup to go up 1-0 on England. It is commonly referred to as the "hand of god". It was before replay and the ref didn't see it. He then scored the "best goal of the century" to beat them 2-1. )
Got them at the same time last year with no issues...but I'm the guy who never reacts badly to vaccines. My shingles vaccines didn't bother me at all and everyone says the second one hammered them. I know the second one put my no-pic wife on the couch for a couple of days.
Haven't you heard? "Middle aged" is the new 20's/30's. Especially when you're strapped AF.
Old enough to know better, but young enough to get away with it.
Definitely. Was also hoping for a flu combo of some sort.
Yes if they put it in a jello shot
We're still going with our actual PCM's advice, not internet doctors, right? I had my annual back in June and my doc was more concerned with me getting my shingles vax now and my flu shot in the fall. She offered COVID but said I don't really need it but, "it's just something we offer if you want it."
Should I have her call the OP and Joes Place?

That's why I pushed mine. She wanted to give it to me 2 days before my cruise. The only two vaccines to "get me" were COVID 2nd poke and Anthrax 2nd poke knocked me on my arse.
Or you look at it as getting it has almost a zero downside and will likely have no effect at all but will almost certainly prevent serious illness if you get covid. Kinda like the thinking behind a seatbelt. I doubt I'm going to be in an accident that will eject me from the car...but why chance it when I can protect myself with something so simple.We're still going with our actual PCM's advice, not internet doctors, right?

covid going around the inlaws. Both MIL and FIL in their 90’s and while pretty sick, got through it just fine. No pic probably had it earlier this week and stayed home one day. Nothing more than a cold. So, no, not getting one (I got the original and one booster to date). Also second shingles messed me up for one day. First was no problemo….
I remember thinking after the first couple that the anthrax vaccine was over hyped. The third one felt like the inside of my arm was on fire. It was insane.
Haven’t had Covid ever so of course I will continue the annual vaccination

I got the combo flu/covid one last fall and didn't get either over the winter and spring, so if offered that again, I likely will. I won't go out of my way to seek it, though. My employer had traveling nurses come in one day and administer them so I took advantage.
I've had Covid 3 years in a row in the late winter/early spring. Each time it kicked my ass, and I'm incredibly thankful I was fully vaxxed and boosted. Yes, I'll get every Covid booster recommended by medical professionals.
Both were men. One was 46 and the other was one day short of being 64. Both were healthy, but the 46 yr old had been wounded in Iraq some 10 years earlier. Neither of them had been vaccinated. The older one was quite vocal about being against the vaccine. The younger man left behind a wonderful 38 year old wife and two kids under 5. The older man has a great wife and 3 adult kids to mourn him. I'm am related by marriage to both men.
