Who's Getting the Fall COVID Vaccine?

How the shit would you being vaccinated impact a healthy newborn?
Possibly, but not likely. I'll grab the flu shot at my fall VA appt, but I rarely get sick. Only had COVID one time (Jun 2022) and it was super easy. I'm pretty sure the efficacy of my original shot and booster had worn off by then.
I’m still putting out my autism flare ups from the previous doses.
Not sure why anyone would take the vaccine after listening to the video. Covid has long term imprinting which means if you have had covid or been exposed to Covid then your body will be able to mount an immune response against it.
He also talks about not needing the vaccine unless you are in the high risk category.
To all those taking the shot, what is you goal in taking it?
I would like to point out that he is saying the same thing I have said on here since Dec 2021. So as it turns out, I was right. 😁

I would like to add, spend as much time with your schoolage kids/grandkids. If you areexposed to small amounts more frequently your chance of getting sick from covid or influenza is extremely small. Obviously stay away from grossly sick people.
The main goal is to stop Americans from dying.
Yep will get it this fall, with the flu vaccines I get. What is one more. The limited downside risks of vaccines are far outweighed by their benefits. The fact that people are concerned about vaccines tells you all you need to know about the damage the far right has done to the publics faith in science.
These are the only correct answers, just consult with your doctor and follow his/her advice unless they get their information from 8chan/Q boards, then maybe just go with your gut on this decision.
If all of these anti vax pussies were around in the 50’s and early 60’s polio would never have been beaten.
This line of thinking always bothers me.
Regardless of how you feel about vaccines, I encourage everyone to take an active part in all of your healthcare (vaccines as well as general medical care). Don't put blind faith in your providers.
Do your own research and ask your doctor questions. If you agree with the doctor then by all means listen to them. But if you don't agree with what they say, get a second opinion. You have much more riding on the treatment plan/outcome than the doctor does.
This does not imply that you shouldn't trust doctors at all, but its meant to emphasize that you need to look out for yourself and your family.
The reality is that doctors are human and they make mistakes. Lots of them.

Polio vaccine stopped people from getting polio. Covid vaccine does not.
This is where I’m at. I see the Doc next month to get an annual. If he’s says do it I will. I just won’t do the flu and COVID at the same time this fall. That really knocked me down. Sickest I’ve ever been really.
Glad to hear your are doing your Keigels, not sure what that has to do with a vaccine.
Yep. I had the OG covid the first October and had limited symptoms. Both shots were way worse for me.
Was going to reply and say the J&J wasn't mRNA (the one I initially got), but I guess I'm shit outta luck on that one as of May 6th.
Looks like you can do the Novavax.
From the CDC site:
"Vaccines authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) currently include:
Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines which are mRNA vaccines.
Novavax COVID-19 vaccine which is a protein subunit vaccine.
J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine, a viral vector vaccine, has expired and is no longer available for use in the United States as of May 6, 2023."
They HAD that; it was the J&J which is what I got. But that’s no longer an option.
So, you’re saying the COVID vaccine didn’t help at all. If it just lessens the severity of the virus then it isn’t worth taking? Some people are just looking for an excuse not to take it.
I think this explains a lot about you. I see why you make the decision you do, because you struggle to understand the full situation.
It more of a political thing where people refuse to see benefit in anything that doesn't help them politically.
When my grandson was born last year it was required if they were in the NICU and you wanted to visit. He was born 4 weeks early and his mama is high risk so there is a chance this one could be premature as well.
Oh man, I forgot about covid having a vaccine. It must have done the trick as I don’t hear about covid anymore. Weird how once people got back to a normal way of life, if just sort of disappeared.
Nope, I didn't say it wasn't effective at all.
It was effective during the Delta phase, but has not done much of anything since then since. I also think it shouldn't have been given to young healthy people.
The reason I say this is because young healthy people did not get seriously ill. It doesn't make sense to protect yourself against something that won't happen to you in the first place.
In addition, people have been exposed to covid, so what little benefit you may receive from the vaccine, you are also receiving from passive exposure in public.
I have an infant. I had a infant during the height of covid. I took a 6(?) Month old into Unity point and had a doctor look me square in the eyes and say "you want this to be covid, you don't want this to be RSV". Luvkily it was covid and covid for healthy children is joke. Again, how would a grandmother being vaccinated help a healthy grandchild?
The days of "don't question the vaccine" are ****ing over bud.
Wow. Just because RSV may be a higher risk for infants than covid, doesn't mean covid isn't still a risk. You're reasoning is really weird. With your black/white thinking it probably doesn't make sense for the grandma to be vaccinated, but for most normal humans that can deal with a little grey, there could easily be a very good reason. Maybe she doesn't want to risk her grandkid being one of the kids who is affected by covid. Maybe her Son/Daughter has a medical condition. Maybe her Son/Daughter just want to only allow vaccinated people around their kid for a few months.
You're the last person who should be questioning other people's decisions. You allows your infant to get Covid within the first few months of his/her life. It obviously wasn't a walk in the park or you wouldn't have taken him/her to the doctor. So enough of the covid is a joke for kids.
Holy......shit.... feel free to sit in the corner and vaccinate yourself to your hearts content but that isn't even on the same planet as how it works in a day care.
"Allowed my child to get covid", how long ago was it you had infant children building an immune system?
There you are again with thinking black and white. There is a grey. I forgot you're a poor and had to put your kid in daycare during covid. You really shouldn't judge anyone with the bad choices you make. We didn't have to use daycare for our kids. Sounds like you need to spend more time figuring out how to better yourself rather than judging other people.
The only thing grey around here is your hair. How long has it been since you had a infant/toddler?
Yes.
Main early goals were to slow the spread and reduce hospitalizations and deaths. The vaccines were very good at those and, for a while, even seemed to be preventing deaths. A nice bonus, but it didn't last.
Considering that the 3 shots that I've already had did not prevent me from getting Covid twice, I think I'll pass.
That’s a lie. Don’t make me go post the videos (again) of Biden and Walensky saying if you get vaccinated, you won’t spread Covid.
You do understand that Grandma is still going to get COVID even with the vaccine right? And still going to give it to others even with the vaccine right?
This isn’t about how long ago I had kids, it’s about you being critical of others and your kid ended up at the hospital because of covid. You might want to sit this one out based on your choices. You’re like a lot of people in the world today, you make bad decisions and then attack the other side in order to justify (in your head) your poor decisions.
