    Not really sure but I think I would feel better if my booster is the same as the 2 I have had. Yesturday  I herd that the type of shoto I had will give me 65% protection from the Delta strain. Cheers and happy weekend!

    I plan to check with the pharmacy where we got the J&J shots April 8 to see if they will be giving out the booster shots. Did you ever think we would be preoccupied with vaccinations like this Nanoose? I sure didn't! Not in a bazillion years. Each year we'd get our flu shots and any other shots our doc advised. No big deal. NOW? It's front and center and crucially critical. Weird I think. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday to you and your family! :)

    I think it should be the same.  Mixing and matching groceries is one thing, but when it comes to your health I'd be a lot more leery.

    I'm going to check with the pharmacy where we got our J&J shots on April 8. See if they are planning to give the booster shots. Thank you for your reply Shuhak! I wonder if folks got all of them to insure not getting COVID would that be harmful? :)

    I don't think the booster shots are out yet.  The last I heard Pfizer was seeking emergency authorization.

    Booster? Ha Ha Ha Ha. I never got the first or second shots, and I will not get them.
