Global News BC: B.C. preparing for fall rollout of new Omicron COVID-19 vaccine https://globalnews.ca/news/9828362/bc-covid-booster-fall-omicron-henry/ #globalnews #britishcolumbia #news #Dr.BonnieHenry #Omicronvariant #COVIDbooster #BonnieHenry #COVIDupdate #COVIDshot #COVID-19 #Booster #Omicron #Health #COVID #naci

I just scheduled my next COVID booster.

I'm actually starting to lose track of the number of vaccines and boosters I've gotten, but I do remember the two Evusheld doses (each two shots). Unfortunately, that no longer works with the latest mutation.

Now to see if anyone's masked when I show up. (It's so much fun asking them to mask.)

Good news!!!! My local community clinic is booking quick nurse appointments for seniors (and immunosuppressed folk) to get bivalent covid boosters; me and MDH have an appointment!

A new bivalent COVID-19 booster rolls out next month.

Here's what you need to know about the vaccine.

🔹The new bivalent BA.4/5 booster vaccine will be available from March 6

🔹One study in the US found vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation or death with a bivalent BA.4/5 booster (either Pfizer or Moderna) was 61.8 per cent, compared to 24.9 per cent effectiveness from an original booster.

RT @BigBadDenis: There’s a new COVID booster. Should you get one?

How do you decide if you need another booster? And does it matter which vaccine you get?

Just got #COVIDBooster. Fifth shot but first one not through @nilikm and #Jabapalooza. Makes me a little sad. Still an act of #CommunityCare.

Make sure to keep an eye on your booster dates.

The truth behind the viral #MTG Tweet claiming the second #covidbooster puts many people in the hospital

Me, getting my #CovidBooster shot: carefully selects and applies a great lip colour. Promptly puts on a mask that isn't removed for the 3 minutes in the pharmacy. I guess it's like wearing fancy underwear.

Because it’s just come up, a reminder: If you have an actual Covid infection, the recommendation is to wait three months before getting a primary-series vaccine, or 4 to 6 months before getting the booster.

Got my bivalent booster today. I’ve been waiting until I had actual plans to do something out in the world. I’ll be visiting friends in two weeks, which was my main incentive. Less of an incentive: making appointments for things I’ve been putting off, like going to the dentist. I mean, it’s great to be able to go to a dentist. But not exactly fun.

Still have some fatigue (felt very much, maybe #Fibromyalgia #autoimmune flare) that I felt two weeks after #flushot #CovidBooster, but now… about four weeks later, feel like I have moved through it.

Is it time for YOU to get your next #CovidBooster?

I got my #CovidBooster and my #FluShot yesterday. Thankful that all it's been is my arms being achy, and I'm feeling less productive than normal even though I took my #ADHD meds this morning. Hopefully I'll be more productive tomorrow, I've got chores I really need to catch up on.
