Neeranam Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Had Sinovac then Astraxenic. Last one was 4 months ago. I've paid for Moderna but don't know if I need it as the pandemic is coming to an end, so I heard. Would you go ahead and take it? I am 56, and healthy. Plan to go to the UK in 5 months.

Popular Post richard_smith237 Posted February 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2022 There is no harm in taking another vaccine and maintaining protection. There remains a potential for the virus to evolve again - of course, everyone hopes the next variant is even less harmful, however, there remains the possibility of antigenic drift to a more serious variant. While not panicking or being scared (as some are of course going to want to interpret from my comments), it makes sense to maintain an intelligent vigilance. For these reasons we have just vaccinated our son with one of the first available ‘child Pfizer’ vaccines in Thailand. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ubonjoe Posted February 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2022 I suggest you get the booster. I am aware of a Thai that got infected with covid 19 after the getting the same covid vaccine combination you did and was not due for the booster yet. It must of been omnicron since they were able to do the isolation at home since it was just a sore throat and fever. I was in close contact with them and did not get it after getting 2 Pfizer shots and not due a booster yet. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sheryl Posted February 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2022 If you had 1 Sinovac then 1 AZ, and more than 3 months have past since the second shot, a booster with an mRNA vaccine is recommended. Protection levels have been shown to drop off with time. Ads for the pandemic coming to an end...Thailand is seeing escalating numbers and I don't think Omicron has peaked here yet. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Crossy Posted February 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2022 Unless you are in an at-risk group for serious reactions then a booster cannot do any harm. I would go for it. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Black Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) How about if you are double vaccinated (AZ) and already had mild covid? Edited February 13, 2022 by Harry Black 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocky Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) I paid for Moderna jabs too. I took one of them a week ago as a booster to my 2x AstraZeneca shots. Beyond a sore arm and a slight headache it was fine. The pandemic is only coming to end until it isn't, might as well get yourself boosted. .

peter zwart Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 No. Not the 1st, not the 2nd and certainly not the booster. But i do understand that if you realy have to fly that your forced to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chomper Higgot Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Those of us who had Pfizer vaccinations from the Thai Government program are now approaching 6 months since our second shot. Across Thailand local public health centers are offering boosters as a walk-in. I’ll be getting my booster as soon as my six month has past. The virus isn’t going away, it’s still here and it’s going to be with us for ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catturd Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Fauci “But if you are a normal, healthy 30-year-old person with no underlying conditions, you might need a booster only every four or five years.” Does anyone really know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
