Eric: Same. Hoping the fact that shot #5 (or was it #6? Losing count since they stopped filling card) was a switchover from Moderna to Novavax will help bridge the gap, with cross reactivity and Nova’s pretty good record against new variants. But who knows given it was September of ’23 when I got it.

The new COVID variant seems to be evading immunity from vaccines and past infections. COVID cases are up 250% in NYC. Remember the more you get covid your risk for long covid increases significantly. gothamist.com/news/nyc-cov...

Ugh. Here we go again. I think booster was 9mos ago, though I suppose that doesn’t matter significantly with this variant.

i read that am updated booster should be available later this month, hopefully that's the case.

I read new booster isn't til september at the earliest which is frustrating because I'm overdue for mine already

I just got my Sept 2023 one again in May to re-up it(???)

Yeah just debating what to do in this liminal period before the new formulas are avail. Booster now, and again in like October/Nov with new formula, or just wait for new.

It’s the first year I got the same Fall shot in the Spring because… I’m worried
