Update on New COVID Vaccine Boosters

Flu shots are updated every year to try to be more current with the strains, and it’s about darn time they did the same here. My prediction is that within the next two years at most, they will have an all in one shot flu/COVID boosters to just get everything completed annually, one and done.

This Bivalent one (half original vaccine, half updated to the most common and contagious Omicron strains) is available now for anyone ages 12 and older as long as they have:

-Received 2 or more shots of Pfizer/Moderna or one or more shot of J&J.
-It’s been at least 2 months since you got your last shot (however many).

-It’s been 3 months since you had COVID.

You can always mix & match Pfizer/Moderna and my recommendation is always Moderna simply due to it being 50mcg versus Pfizer 30mcg so it’s the same thing basically but should last a bit longer, but yes also have stronger side effects as a result (so if you’ve had awful side effects you don’t wish to repeat feel free to get Pfizer).

Between being up to date on the boosters (I’m signing up for mine today), the great medications that we now have, and yes also natural immunity from catching COVID, this is thankfully becoming easier and easier to live with every day!

Next week I will be talking to Dr. David Agus, and if he allows it to be recorded I’ll announce it here so you can tell me your questions. Stay tuned.
