I’d get one if it was allowed. I’m 4 months from my booster and about to dive in to my high risk environment with an infant at home that can’t get vaccinated.
Israel is doing it, and they’ve been ahead of the curve and right on this kind of stuff the whole pandemic. I’m not sure if they’re doing it for educators, but I know they’re doing it for HCWs.
I don’t think it’s available anywhere else.
Seems that a couple of countries (Sweden, South Korea) are only recommending it for the elderly and immunocompromised.
No idea why they aren’t pushing it for everyone. I mean the Czech Republic is giving only 15,000 shots per weekday and about 80% of them are boosters. If omicron can’t get the unvaccinated going, then nothing will.
57% of people receiving the first two shots went on to get a booster shot. Not sure how many of that group is gonna go for another one especially without any disincentives for not getting one.
they don’t count grand prix accidents?

Out of curiosity, why do you care about “allowed”? You can easily go to a pharmacy and get them to give you a shot with little effort. No one is going to throw you in jail. So if you are convinced it will help you, what is stopping you? Discomfort about not being completely forthright about your vaccination history? Fear that you will take a jab from someone who needs it? Other?
Not comfortable with the amount of lying it would take to pull it off.

When I have looked into booking online at a pharmacy, I need to incorrectly click a single box in order to get an appt for a Moderna booster (which would make it #4 for me). And if prior experience is any indication, they’re not going to ask me anything else when I get there.
Of course, it is not unreasonable to even be uncomfortable with that.
However, I wouldn’t judge anyone for either decision.
Both girls tested negative tonight. They never officially tested positive, but it’s not like they weren’t exposed. MrsWookie and I tried to keep masks up the first few days, but we weren’t perfect (we had to eat and drink, after all), and they insist on climbing all over MrsWookie basically whenever they can. They never really developed symptoms other than perhaps being crankier than normal, so that’s a huge relief. It’s also almost certain that we got it from them rather than the other way around, so they’re basically out of the woods.
MrsWookie and I are both just about over our cold symptoms, but I still have a knot like a motherfucker in my lower back that may or may not be related to the cron. Fucker is almost too tender to massage when I have woken up these last few days.

Anything is possible, but I’d put my money on not 'cron for that.
Muscle spasms are the worst. Feel like the only thing that works is booze and time
On the one hand, yes, that was my immediate thought. On the other hand, the timing is suspect, and I haven’t done a damn thing to deserve this, other than getting the cron and getting old. So, on the other other hand, getting old.

Virtue signaling ITT
It’s … both virtue and vice signaling? Most of the times I’ve hurt my back like this, it’s from heavy squats in the gym, but I haven’t been to the gym since, well, I’m not 100% sure at this point but either late 2019 or early 2020, but before the pandemic started. That’s both good and bad.
