Just FYI we’re entering a summer Covid wave right now (especially western regions in the US); you can see it in the CDC wastewater plot here (and anecdotally a bunch of my friends are suddenly testing positive). www.cdc.gov/nwss/rv/COVI...

I really wish we could choose to do a booster every six months if we were so inclined — feels like I’m catching COVID right at the wane of immunity from the last booster.

You kind of can if you're willing to lie a little bit and pay out of pocket, the drugstores aren't really checking that closely though YMMV and you may have to drugstore hop. The funniest thing is I got mine two weeks ago at the same drugstore chain (not location) that I got my booster in the fall.

I do think it's hilarious that it took a global pandemic to make me a consumate rule follower to be like fuck it, gonna work the system. All of my tricks are like how to get travel paxlovid though and like how to get metformin when your doctor won't prescribe it for you.

I wish I'd done this. Really looking forward to getting on a cross country flight end of the weak with my waning October shot pumping around inside.

The lie a little bit is when they asked about the date of my last booster I maybe didn't tell the truth. That german dude got 200+ shots me getting a covid vaccine twice a year isnt going to kill me.

Between the Cat 4 hurricane turbulence and the plane load of unmasked coughers, it should be a fun flight. Note to self - next time lie.
