There are actual liberals here? I miss pstmstr
Rather stay in reasonably good shape then get the shots weather Flu or Covid. Yup, got the Covid shots when they were first introduced, but no boosters. Regret getting the Covid Shot, too many questions that get shut down too much. I would have never dreamed that people would make a vaccine mandatory for adults. Besides, it is shown that you can catch and transmit the covid virus even if vaccinated, so what's the point? Even "covid is less severe" is false in many studies abroad. It's your choice, I will not fault anyone who gets it, just don't force me.
Got my annual flu shot from the VA and while I was there I went ahead and did the new Covid booster. I also learned that there was a new(er) form of vaccine against the Zoster virus (Shingles) so I will up my protection from what I already had come next month when I see my Cardiologist again - my Mom had Shingles and she was miserable with skin pain because of it. I don't need that in my life.
While I was getting dosed with more chemicals I was talking to the nurse about perhaps getting an RSV vaccination down the line and she told me that, so far the cases of RSV are very, very few for Oklahoma so getting an RSV is not recommended by the VA, plus unlike other vaccines where you can just do a walk-in, when it comes to the RSV vaccine, I have to go through my PCP first to get it authorized - must be some wicked stuff

Not only no but hell no. The one time I got a flu shot I got the flu.
I've found keeping fingers out of holes in your head is a good way to keep from getting sick.
Already got the flu shot from my PCP a couple of weeks ago. Just got over COVID, so no need for a booster there anyway. I've been debating whether or not to take any more COVID shots. Probably not. I took both the flu vaccine and the COVID booster at the same time last year. I'll never do that again. I don't recall ever having an adverse reaction to any vaccines, but I did after combining the two!
Smart decision. Covid, flu, and pneumonia for us old folks. And the Shingles Vax is a must. If you got one years ago, ask if you should get the new one.
The flu vax (for multiple flu mixes) changes every year, almost. Some mixes will have more symptoms than others. But usually for a day or less. I consider that a fantastic deal compared to a couple weeks of feeling like crap, or worse.
Best of luck.
