Booked a Pfizer shot next week to top up my J&J.
Anyone found a location for a Moderna booster that doesn't ask a ton of questions?
I'm maxed vaxed. CVS with Pfizer today.
I suspect the pharmacy chains are asking a lot of questions to show they are compliant with the CDC recs. Doesn't mean they necessarily care about the answers. But the process, at least for CVS is mildly annoying. Especially when my wife asked me to do it for her and then after I made the appt decided to make her own appt somewhere else.Quote:

Wife double dose of Moderna and me double dose of Pfizer, both completed in May.
Poor girl is hacking all over me and there is no way I will let her writhe in pain isolated in her room alone, so I expect to see if Pfizer is going to hold up with my particular immune response. A hearty fuck you to anyone who didnt help nip this bullshit in the bud sooner with a free, researched vaccine.
Pulling for you as well, teletech.
I found CVS to be reasonable with the questions, and they offered both pfizer and moderna depending on location.Quote:

Yeah, I found CVS super easy and quick online. They wanted insurance info if you had it.Quote:

This is my fear. My situation is similar to yours, two kids (8 and 10), and we're just hoping they're able to avoid coming down with this thing. Sorry to hear about your situation...definitely wouldn't let my boys isolate solo either if I was in your shoes. Good luck.Quote:

Jumped on the testing train right away and got cleared Sunday, but she's still sick with cold.
Youll get it, I did. About a week after the wife had symptoms. All 3 monsters under 5 came out ok, thankfully. Now waiting for a neg result so i can return to work.Quote:

We are finally getting the surge here. Hospital near us has more covid Patients in the last 2 weeks then the rest of the pandemic combined. What’s weird is who it hits. I have it wife and kids don’t. Dad has it, mom doesn’t. Brother has it, his girlfriend doesn’t. We were all working together. Time will tell if the rest of the family gets it. Strange shit
Well, I’ve posted before about my batshit crazy, born again, anti-vax nutter in- laws before, but shit might be coming to a head…..Quick recap, SIL and family moved to Texas last year, cause freedumbz. MIL followed soon thereafter.They both believe the vaccine is the Mark of the Beast, Fauci is the Antichrist, Hillary drinks baby blood, and scooby scooby do…..MIL calls Mrs. Seano last night, wanting them all to come up here for Thanksgiving. My reply was absolutely they can, as long as they bring proof of vaccination…SIL had a complete Cat 5 meltdown, I could hear her screaming at Mrs. Seano on the phone from the next room…..After about five minutes, I grabbed the phone, told the SIL that according to her precious Jesus book, I am the king of this fucking castle, her sister submits to me, and she and her mom could fuck right off……Think it’s gonna be a nice, small, quiet Thanksgiving this year. Fuck. Sake.
6yr old scheduled for vaccine shot#1 on Nov 13th.

My teen is getting cranky about isolation from his peers when they plan long indoor activities because he has unvaxed siblings at home. He understands and we all feel bad that he’s missing out. But soon, hopefully things will change!!
My wife had appt later this week at the local cvs for her Pfizer booster. Cancelled because the cvs flooded during the Sunday NorCal storm.
Bloody hell man, what a shit storm. (well done, too!)Quote:

Anti vaxers...what in the world is going on in their heads? It's mind numbing how family members can be on opposite sides of the spectrum when it comes to science. Politics I understand and maybe (apparently?) that is the issue with this vaccine. It's become politicized...but even nitwit Trump told people to get vaxxed, so wtf? I know a few trumpers and they are all vaccinated. Anti vaxxers are next level shit like flat earthers.
