I got my Moderna booster two weeks ago at Publix and I am not immunocompromised. They were also offering the Pfizer booster. You can make an appointment online.

I heard this from Lester Holt (NBC) and from Nora O'Donnell (CBS). I know many of you do not consider these news sources to be reliable so now I'm starting to wonder just how reliable they are. Can't believe I even said that!

I went to the Johns Hopkins website, as recommended by someone on another thread. Johns Hopkins states that they are administering Pfizer and Moderna booster shots to those who have a "qualifying medical condition". This is from the Johns Hopkins website, FAQ..........

"Is Johns Hopkins offering third shots of the Covid-19 vaccines?
Yes. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized an additional COVID-19 vaccine dose for people who received either the Pfizer-BioNTech or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccines and have a qualifying medical condition, as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). A third shot has been authorized only for the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.

People with a qualifying medical condition who have received either the Pfizer-BioNTech or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccines are eligible to get an additional dose of the same vaccine at select Johns Hopkins Medicine vaccination clinics. Eligible people must schedule a COVID-19 vaccine third dose in advance, as follows:

Schedule online through MyChart. View scheduling instructions.
Schedule by phone at 443-997-1875, Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The FDA and CDC continue to evaluate data regarding the need for additional doses for other populations. For now, those who received the Janssen/Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine are not eligible to receive any additional doses of any authorized COVID-19 vaccines. Read more about getting a COVID-19 third dose at Johns Hopkins Medicine."

This is the Johns Hopkins website with this information. I consider Johns Hopkins to be a reliable source......

Saw this article in the NY Times concerning The Moderna Vaccine. Maybe we don’t need a 3rd booster shot of Moderna.

Thank you for posting this article dated September 25, 2021. The following is an excerpt and is exactly what I heard reported on NBC's Lester Holt and CBS's Nora O'Donnell......

The CDC decision applies just to those vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine and not for those who received the Moderna or Johnson & Johnson vaccines. A booster recommendation for those two vaccines is expected in the coming weeks, US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy said on Friday.

Let me go one step further. All these providers (physicians and pharmacies) who are administering the third shots of Moderna (AKA boosters by some) are just not listening to or following the guidance of the CDC. Am I understanding that correctly???

Do you have a “qualifying medical condition”? Moderna has not received approval yet for a third shot for most people.

I told the aide my two shot vaccination was Pfizer. She tells me not to worry, they’re the same, they’re only giving Moderna. ������ now I’m hoping I don’t pee green or glow in the dark.
