But I don't think it can be six months yet for most of us. The first people I knew to get vaccinated were friends who work in the hospital, back in January, before it was available to the rest of us. I got my second shot at the end of March, so it hasn't been six months yet.

And they did say that it was obviously more important for everyone to finally get vaccinated - I can't believe with the horrific numbers of deaths across the country that there are those who are still refusing.

with all the idiots we have here, other nations should give unsafe travel advisories or outright bans to their citizens who are thinking of traveling to the United States.

US! A once 1st world nation who leads in medical technology brought down by a bunch of morons.

All the unvaccinated are getting sick and dying for no good reason - and infecting and spreading it among young kids or elderly family members and even among the vaccinated. I've only known one person - so far - my Dad's cousin who just turned 88 died of Covid even though she was fully vaccinated.

These stories are so sad - and so unnecessary. I have often wondered what history will make of this pandemic, made so many times worse by the ignorant, stubborn and conspiracy theorists.

Moderna seems to have been a stronger and more robust vaccine - but that's not why I'm
posting... it *has* been 6 months since your 2nd shot. The end of March plus 6 months would be the end of September, so you can get it now if you want.

I will feel safer when I get a booster. The anti-vaxxers are impossible to understand. What makes a person decide that a cheap political point is worth endangering their life and the lives of their loved ones?

I'm scheduled for 10/19. My second shot was on 4/1, so I'm right at the 6 month interval.
