COVID booster vaccines

[JoM]

I had my second booster the weekend before last (and had the usual tiredness, headache, muscle aches and shivers the following day). There was a huge difference with when me and Joe went for our first boosters last October and back then had to queue with around 100 in front of us.

On this occasion there were no queues, two tables set up in the vaccination hub and the nurses were standing there waiting for people to come through the door so there appears to be very little take up of the fourth vaccination.

I can’t believe you’ve only just had your second Jo, I thought you were classed as vulnerable? Most people I know who are vulnerable have now had 4 vaccines

I had them in Jan, April and October

A second booster for Jo is four in total, so pretty good.

I am in the slightly lesser group and have had three jabs - last in March. I can have a booster-booster at some time, but will wait till autumn and get it with the flu jab.

Ah second booster. That makes sense. Sorry Jo thought you meant second vaccine

I have had four vaccinations the last one in April.
Not had any after effects with any of them.
I am now 87 years old.

I do not have the flu vacination.

I’m happy to have a booster with my annual flu jab but that’s it for me I’ve had 3 and recently had Covid. I got away lightly and for that I thank the vaccine programme

same here and suspect that come the winter the fourth booster will be available for my age group (50's +) to go with the flu vaccination
