These people are seriously mentally ill.  "Why don't they force everyone to wear 6 masks and get a shot a week for 2 years?!"

but I have almost felt like going to a pharmacy and getting a new round

What does the SCIENCE say?  I dunno.  Don't care.  Science changes daily, and it does so for a reason.  Let's see what the DUmmies say.

1. Would they know that you already had it?

I want a booster too, and I am concerned FDA is moving too slowly on it. Pfizer suggests that at six months your immunity is decreased and it's time for a booster shot.

Yup, follows science.  LOL

4. I am tempted too

Got my Modena in Jan and Feb. wondering if I should. Or what would happen if I went for Pfizer one and two. I bet people have done that

Yup, that's pretty sciency!  NOT!  LOL

9. I got j and j. I want an mRNA booster now

Because ... science!  LOL

10. I want a booster too

Got Pfizer in Feb and March. I’m in Las Vegas where the coronavirus infection rates are high.

I saw yesterday where the CDFAUCI said we should get boosters everyday and STILL wear masks.  This sounds right.  We should all get shots, immediately!

26. There Has To Be A Database

At least here in Illinois.
The vaccine recipient "lottery" didn't require any effort to enter.
They automatically entered us, so they must have the vax list.
I'd think they would get a block message if you tried to enter your name again.

Oh no!!  You should go bury your vax status in your backyard and go get ANOTHER vax!!!  That would show those fascists!

I'm thinking this one is feeling the pain of firearms owners.

27. You're correct.

I talked to the pharmacist who gave me the vaccine and my doctor. Boosters have not yet been approved in the US. You can’t just walk into a vaccination site and demand another shot.

When you got your first one, you were put into the database. Even if you don’t have insurance, they know who has been vaccinated already.

Wanna bet?!      $$$ does wonders for records.

20. Amen to that.

I considered the same thing after seeing that the vaccine can lose a bit of efficacityover time. California maintains records of who has had the vaccination, and you cannot get a 3rd. . . .  Considering there are lots of people who have refused their vaccination, I don't see how it could hurt. In any case, I work in a hospital, and vaccinated staff members have been coming down with the D variant, and I don't particularly want to. I guess it's time to be vigilant with the mask wearing. . . We have to wear them at work which is fine with me, as I wear one at all times when indoors.

Typical DUmmie mindset.  Someone didn't get theirs, I should have it!!  LOL  It might kill you, but ok, go for it.

29. Didn't you just suddenly move out of your condo due to fear of collapse after the Miami thing?

What was it Roosevelt said about fear?

One of my new favorite DUmmies.  LOL

They'd better get a dozen shots and put a plastic bag over their heads just to be sure

Rampant paranoia, it isn't just for breakfast anymore.  I laugh at and mock such clowns.

Just think about risk management before the Chinese Wuhan Virus inflicted our world.  Did perpetually sand in the vagina liberals ever drive a car or perhaps cross a street?  Far more deaths have been caused by automobiles and dozens of other factors before the Wu.  No one can eliminate every miniscule bit of risk that one might encounter.

Stop treating adult and educated Americans like infants.

I'm on a job site in south Texas.  Today a squall came up and there was considerable lightning.  I actually WENT OUTSIDE while the lightning was striking.  I'm literally shaking just typing this .... LOL  naw. 

They are afraid of everything.

1. If Kansas is like California, the state has a database of vaccinations received, which pharmacies are allowed to access. So any pharmacy Pam goes to will know she's been vaccinated, and will also refuse to give her a third shot of Moderna, as this would violate Moderna's FDA Emergency Use Authorization. As to other Covid vaccines, I doubt a pharmacy would give her a shot of Pfizer or J&J.

2. Pfizer and Moderna began testing the use of a third "booster" some 6 months ago. Only Pfizer, so far, has applied for an update of their EUA to permit use of a third "booster". Moderna has not yet applied for a similar update. Last I heard, the FDA may decline Pfizer's request on the basis that the existing 2-dose protocol is adequate. The FDA and CDC issued this statement July 8th, https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/joint-cdc-and-fda-statement-vaccine-boosters :

The United States is fortunate to have highly effective vaccines that are widely available for those aged 12 and up. People who are fully vaccinated are protected from severe disease and death, including from the variants currently circulating in the country such as Delta. People who are not vaccinated remain at risk. Virtually all COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths are among those who are unvaccinated. We encourage Americans who have not yet been vaccinated to get vaccinated as soon as possible to protect themselves and their community.

Americans who have been fully vaccinated do not need a booster shot at this time. FDA, CDC, and NIH are engaged in a science-based, rigorous process to consider whether or when a booster might be necessary. This process takes into account laboratory data, clinical trial data, and cohort data – which can include data from specific pharmaceutical companies, but does not rely on those data exclusively. We continue to review any new data as it becomes available and will keep the public informed. We are prepared for booster doses if and when the science demonstrates that they are needed.

Lots of      , so I highlighted the pertinent part.

3. It is known that vaccinated people still have high antibodies levels a year or so after being vaccinated. Much beyond that is unknown because initial testing of Moderna and Pfizer began in March and April of 2020. It is also known that the Moderna and Pfizer cause B-cell and T-cell responses, which means recipients' immune system will still "know" how to make anti-Covid antibodies even after levels of antibodies fall off. That means that the effectiveness "life" of those vaccinations will be years, not months.

It's a measure of Pam's ignorance that she is all panicked and does not know all that.

Wait....you DUmbasses are complaining about people not getting vaccinated but are perfectly willing to steal another shot even though you're fully vaccinated already?

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

An exorcism would be more effective.

[SVPete]

There are ample studies that have demonstrated that the several vaccines in use in the US are effective against known variants and that vaccine-produced antibodies persist for longer than we can know. Pam's problem isn't with the lack of information, but that the MSM and Pam feed Pam's fear, Pam wants to be in fear, and Pam trusts her CNN or MSNBC or ProgNews news sources to give accurate and complete information.

A year ago or so, LIEden, Kammie, and several Dem goobernors were campaigning against the Trump Vaccines, insinuating that they were unsafe and ineffective. DU being lockstep party-line, I'm sure they were several anti-Trump Vaccines threads. Did Pam chime in with her distrust of the vaccines of which she now wishes she could get more?  

[Ferrance]

It's not just Pam but all the DUmmies want to wallow in their paranoia. Toeing that line set up by CNN/MSNBC propaganda. In reality the 7 day rolling average of deaths is under 300 which is in line with Alzheimer's and half of heart disease but I doubt they would let those facts get in the way of a good time.

I say go for it. Just go to a different pharmacy than the one you got the first two shots from.  For that matter let's get all you dummies quadruple jabbed.  Think of it this way, poopy pants, you will be super immune and set a trend for the rest of the dummies.*
