Hi. We just called Publix at Magnolia. They have cancelled our 9/26 appts for the Covid booster. They said they only received 30 shots. The manufacturer has not ramped up manufacturing yet and they don't know when they will. She said it's a flash back to 2020.

How many "other" people do you want to be a guinea pig for 12-15 years to test a vaccine for you?


I agree with First poster.........Coronoviruse is a cold every year when school starts kids gets cold I know I did!!! NO SHOT for those ever.......Give it a rest do not comply with this garbage jab........it is a killer whether you want to believe it and I do believe I know over 22 people that died shortly after that jab all age ranges too........its a early death sentence

Well said and I agree with you......no jab here = NO covid either

So just out of curiosity, for those who doubt the Covid vaccine. Do you think that that every national medical establishment in EVERY country in the world who recommends the vaccine, is duped by big pharma, or does it only apply to the US?

I believe this is America and people can make their own choices. So I am only going to speak for what I am going to do and why, not make any recommendations to anyone else that I am totally unqualified to do since I'm not a doctor or scientist.

My doctors have all recommended getting the new vaccine. They are all taking it themselves. Rather than listening to politicized advice from non-doctors on social media, I trust my doctors and will follow their advice. I am also getting the flu and RSV vaccine.

Florida has the highest per capita COVID hospitalization rate in the country right now, if you believe in data.

So where did you get your medical training from? Do take vitamins and eat a healthy diet but do feel the vaccines have helped us and will continue to take them no matter what no it all say.

I'm getting mine today at CVS in Leesburg. I too tried Walgreens and they were sold out. Significant other went online just now and got an appointment for Tuesday at Walgreens by Rohan so they must be getting a new batch.
To all the anti-VAXer's who are passing on their shots we both say… THANK YOU!!!!:mademyday::thumbup:

I'll check with the dermatologist tomorrow and ask how long after the antibiotics are done, can I get vaccinated.

I'd also like to go back to donating blood. Skin cancer sucks, folks.


Get well soon!! 🙏🙏

I have almost 20 years in healthcare as a Paramedic Supervisor, Emergency/ICU RN, and Coroner and I am not an anti-vaxxer, just a anti-COVID vaxxer. I'll just stick with the vaccines that were tested the old fashioned way for 12-15 years before unleashing them on the public.

If someone were a Russian propaganda troll - would NOT COVID and getting COVID shots be an excellent way to divide (and conquer) America? Just start a rumor that they were developed too quickly.

Florida has the highest per capita COVID hospitalization rate in the country right now, if you believe in data.

“TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The warning from Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration against getting Covid boosters couldn’t have come at a worse time.

DeSantis’ hand-picked surgeon general, Joseph Ladapo, last Wednesday urged people under 65 not to get the newly approved mRNA-boosters, just days after Florida ranked first in the nation for Covid-related hospitalizations.”
