    Got my Pfizer booster today. No questions asked. I checked the box that at an increased risk of COVID-19 based on work environment.

    Four hours in, no symptoms, not even a sore arm.

    Why apologize? We had one of those backbenchers compare the jab to Nazis and she doubled down.

    A fleeting wave of nausea about eight hours post-shot. Same sensation from the vaccine. Came and went and that was that, other than discomfort at the injection site.

    Gwen was advised by our primary to get the booster, just because of her immune system issues. I think we're almost seven months out from the second of two Moderna shots.

    Got Moderna booster (no questions asked) and flu shot on Saturday.

    About 12 hours in, has some chills/slight fever back and forth. Lasted a few hours. Was kinda tired the next day but didn’t prevent me from doing anything. Totally tip top by Monday.

    Much more mild than Moderna No. 2. Pretty much no arm pain.

    So what's the preference on the board, are you getting a booster of what you had or are you mixing and matching? Although I'm not interested in j&j. But I had Moderna and I'm wondering if I should do Pfizer when I get my booster?

    I got Pfizer for all three shots.

    Got my Pfizer booster today. Felt a little weak right after getting it, but I think it was a blood sugar thing and not vaccine-related. My work gave us the same shot we'd originally received.

    I got it because of really old family members, but I have to say I did not see much scientific support for the booster if you are otherwise of reasonable sound health.

    I don't trust J&J. No real reason, I just don't. I've seen the halfassery they've put into other products, particularly eyedrops.

    I’m going to hold off on a booster for now, since I’m relatively healthy. My wife is going to consult with her primary since she’s compromised.
