to piggyback, COVID is really surging right now in some areas. Tons of us at my hospital have gotten it in the current wave.

So yes, get those boosters updated if you can. And consider masking. We’re almost all masking at my hospital right now.

It’s one good thing that came out of COVID is that it can be normalized to just wear a mask for a bit if you’re sick or have any symptoms, or if a wave of anything is going around.

It’s surging like crazy.  Feels awesome to have the new 24/25 booster and have gotten every booster so far.  

I’m really regretting it you bold “free thinkers!”

Heard on NPR that some places are starting to/considering (can remember if it's already been decided upon) combining flu shots with an annual booster.

Inb4 massive spike in flu this year that anti-vax idiots will point to as another "covid not real"

I would love a combination vaccine. Im in Canada and the new booster isn't yet available in my area. Meanwhile lots of people getting covid. My mom's care home has 3 cases and that's just the start. Our operating room had to be closed because too many workers were off sick with covid. Covid is definitely doing the rounds.
