(7,633 posts)Its already hard enough to organize for all the people to get vaccines, forget about a la carte. I trust the health authorities (especially under Biden) to do the right thing and select vaccines that are effective.

I prefer Pfizer over Moderna as alllllllll of the side effects I have read point to Moderna being more likely to cause nausea and I am an utter wimp in the face of belly aches. Still, no matter my preference, I am getting it as soon as I can.

(3,473 posts)Taking more than one vaccine (brands, not the ones that require two shots) seems a bit selfish at least at this time when so many people haven't had one.
