1. I had my booster at the end of August.

I wonder if they'll start telling people to get a fourth shot soon.

4. Given that the booster's protection only lasts about 5 months

I'm afraid they will.

6. I was thinking that.

If they recommend it, I'll go get it. I got sick the day after Christmas and it lasted about a week. I never had to go to the hospital, though, which is the main thing I care about. I loathe hospitals, and I especially don't want to go to one now, while they're so overcrowded. Had some upper respiratory problems that were a little scary, though. Might have been bad if I hadn't been vaccinated, so I believe in keeping up to date with those shots.

7. Yep..

It's important..I have to get another one soon too

2. It's a logical step, but the impact will be muted I'm afraid

It applies to members of the Armed Forces, federal workers and contractors, health care workers, nursing home staff, and international travelers. Am I missing any?

Employees in large firms got a get out of jail free card.

3. Now if they'de start requiring that all people be fully vaccinated

to fly on domestic flight 🥱

5. My brother and his wife tested positive this week

They had the 2 vaccs, but not boosters. Said its like having a bad head cold.

Crowded airports, planes, and Covid don't mix.

8. I've been considering avoiding two-shotters for a while now

This is the evidence I needed to fully implement that policy.

You're either with us or against us. Two shots is NOT vaccinated. It's like taking a partial schedule of antibiotics--you're just fucking it up for everyone.

The part of this policy I'm a little bit unclear on is what level of protection do the people who recently got their first two sets of shots have? Should they be trusted because they came around and did the right thing eventually, or should they have to reach a certain level of boosting before they are allowed to re-integrate?

Remember to mask up and get your booster!
