Recommended: Novavax covid shot

I just got a Novavax covid vaccine on [personal profile] siderea’s recommendation because it’s been six months since my last vax and who knows how long we’ll be able to get vaccines at all. She said the currently available Novavax vaccine expires end of March, so get it while you can.

I got a next-day appointment at CVS, no fuss, no muss, no hassle about how long it’s been since my last shot. Also my arm was barely sore and no other side effects that I’ve noticed. Moderna has been tougher on my system (which can be reassuring in its own way).

Highly recommend getting it ASAP.

Thanks for the reminder!

Edit: Ah, after doing some checking, it turns out I got my last shot in late September, so six months would put me right at the end of March. I could squeeze one in......or hope that a newer vaccine will soon be available. That'll be a thing to decide in March.
