We're all eligible for Covid vaccines again

I checked the CDC wastewater trends, like you do, and it says Covid transmission is high across the country, and especially high in California.

So I checked the Alameda County wastewater site, which says, "The CDC recommends that EVERYONE ages 6 months and older get an updated COVID-19 vaccine at least 2 months after their last dose."

It's been close to a year since my last one, so I tried to schedule in a couple of places, but wasn't finding a Moderna vaccine. I've been on Team Moderna the whole time, and it doesn't feel right to switch now. I found vaccines.gov where I could select which kind of vaccine I want, which claims that my nearby Safeway has both Moderna vaccines and appointments, so I'll be walking over there on Monday afternoon.

It would have been better to get vaccinated a couple of weeks ago, but the second-best time is now.

ETA: As [personal profile] rosefox warned, not only are they out of vaccine, but they don't acknowledge the change in CDC guidance. *sigh*

Oh My Goodness

....the CDC should definitely hire someone to fix the info page

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/stay-up-to-date.html

I couldn't follow all the possible paths, and I'm not *that demented.

Turn it into 20 questions:

What's your birthday?
When was your last vaccine?
When was your last booster?
… … …

Hope your vaccination is swift & sure!

Their infographic is *ridonkulously* bad. Waugh.
