I'll always ask questions. I had already had and recovered from Covid before the vaccine was released...I discussed whether or not to get the vaccine with my internist.
I got the two dose Moderna and one booster.
My wife also caught covid (a week after me... Yeah, I'm still paying for that!
). She also got the shot plus one booster. A month later, she caught covid a 2nd time...
We've decided we're done...
I'll be getting the flu shot later in the Fall. I'm still seeing patients and I'm more susceptible to catching the flu than the average bear...
But remember, the flu shot is a completely different type of vaccine. One that has been around for decades. It has a definite track record...
Luckily, I've not had the flu (just a mild winter 2 day bug) in forever...
