      At this point you’re probably better off waiting for the newly approved ones to be rolled out in August or September. Your doctor or pharmacist could tell you for sure.

        Just read a local article on getting it now and then again in the fall. Coworker had covid last week and said it was the worst she’s felt in years. I’m signed up to get my 2023/24 vaccine tonight. https://captimes.com/news/health/covid-on-the-rise-in-dane-county-what-you-should-know/article_7f20f8e0-3fa6-11ef-bc9d-db5cc29b1bcd.html

      New variant came on quick for me. One day I wasn’t even sure if I was sick, next day couldn’t record a temperature lower than 102 so I tested.

        I’m in the midst of the ramp up. Hoping today is the worst of it but prepared for the worst. Def hitting way faster than OG and way harder than omicron

      Pharmacy wouldn’t let me because it hadn’t been a full year. Go to a different chain.

      Man fuck the vaccines. I got the full recommended dose and still got COVID like 5-6 times already. At this point it’s just like a harsh flu.

        Covid mutates really fast, just like the flu. We will never get rid of it, but adapt to its existence like the flu.
