Please comment on Covid booster policy to the CDC

[sonia]

The CDC is considering making the upcoming Covid booster only available to people who are over 75 and/or immunocompromised. Reference, scroll down to the section on Covid.

Here's my comment:

Please approve the upcoming Covid vaccine booster for everyone. I have been waiting eagerly for it because I got my last one a year ago and I know immunity wanes over time. Everyone is at risk for Long Covid, vaccinated or not, mild case or not. We all need the new booster to help us not get sick. We also need you to advocate for masks, ventilation, and filtration. We need all the tools at our disposal to protect us from this virus and slow its spread and mutation rate. Please protect the public and approve this booster for everyone.

Done! I talked about long Covid and preventing spread in schools.

Thank you for bringing the vaccine booster information to my attention! I did not know about this—was blithely looking forward to my updated booster along with my flu shot—and have commented.

Thanks for posting this. I left a comment in favor of boosters for everyone.

Yikes is right! Makes me wonder what the heck is going on over there - are they trying to help or not??
