    Right there with you. Got vaxed right when I could along with second shot. Definitely not hesitant about a booster. Just seems the limitations are a bit ridiculous.

    We've approved boosters for everyone. Go get them. There are enough shots for everyone to get them.

    And I can mostly justify the "education" exemption by being a sports official.

    The mask is killing me. I don't know how much longer I can do the mask.

    I've done my part, gotten all 3 shots, and at some point I'll fucking lose my shit if I have to keep wearing the mask.

    It's a real problem.

    I'm holding out on the booster till it looks like the Omega variant is coming down the pike.

    Fully vaxxed (Moderna), had mild cases of covid twice before being vaxxed and had an odd sniffle in August that I think might have been delta trying to break through. For the time being, I should be bulletproof. But I am monitoring the situation, trust me.

    I got J&J the first time. Pharmacist looked at my card and said “Roll up your sleeve.”

    I think I said it the other day, my wife said they didn't check squat when she went in, even though she was eligible. I would say just make an appointment and see what happens.

    As you mentioned on replies, it makes no sense there are limitations. Get them if the time has passed. Heck, get them even if not. We can't get enough people in this country to get the vaccine in general but we're limiting the people who want as much protection as possible? So ridiculous how all of this has been run.

    I walked into a Sav-On to pick up a couple of prescriptions. I asked if I could get a flu shot and Pfizer-3 right then. Fill out this form. I showed them card with Pfizer 1 and 2 on it. Stick, stick, done. No appointment, nothing.

    Also, the Colorado info site is very vague. It almost says they can't ask you anything. Tell them you work with a lot of kids and call it a day.

    I went in prepared to explain job exposure, show ID, etc., and they didn't ask for anything other than if I had my shot card.
    I was eligible, but I'm pretty sure anyone who pulls up to the tent won't be turned away.

    Given the availability of shots, I seriously doubt that there is going to be any scrutiny to see if you meet the criteria other than the timing since your last shot. There wasn’t any when I got my doses in March/April other than signing something to say I was eligible.

    got my Moderna 3rd yesterday at a local CVS at there was no special paper work and the pharmacist tested it like a flu shot.
