I am far from an expert. There is no shortage of people who do not know, posting very partial information.

I was going to post that I read that Pfizer also has a booster. We have gotten both of the Pfizer shots. That was an adventure. Waking up at 5:30 4-5x to wait in the hope of getting an appointment. Now as I predicted, I expected a grocery credit. I don't think it has come to that. They are just handing out hundred dollar bills or whatever.

I also have read Moderna is an American owned company, Pfizer is owned, by Germany, the US and CHINA-whatever that means.

I have also read that moderna is slightly less expensive than Pfizer.

All this debate. If, I am correct the polio shot and small pox shots were forced. You had to have them to go to school. The debate? Your going for the polio shot weds. Debate
YES MOM.
