CDC approved a booster vaccine for all adults. 2nd vaccine left me out of commission a couple days, so I doubt I'll getting the booster any time soon.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has now signed off on offering booster doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines to all adults, allowing expanded boosting to begin nationwide this weekend.

"Based on the compelling evidence, all adults over 18 should now have equitable access to a COVID-19 booster dose,” CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said in a statement this evening.

Earlier today, the Food and Drug Administration authorized use of the boosters in all adults, and a committee of independent advisers for the CDC voted unanimously in favor of recommending boosters for all adults. Specifically, the committee voted unanimously (11-0) that people age 50 and over should get a booster six months after their second dose and that people age 18 and over may get a booster after their second dose. The committee came to the unanimous decisions after reviewing extensive safety data and clinical data showing that the third shots significantly elevated antibody levels.

I'm waiting for the booster to become available In my locality and the moment It does, I'll book my appointment.

I had very minimal side effects with both shots, so I assume I won't experience anything major with the booster.
