Some public health experts hope that Americans will welcome the new shot as they would a flu jab. But demand for the vaccine has dropped sharply since 2021 when it first became available and more than 240 million people in the U.S., or 73% of the population, received at least one shot.
In the fall of 2022, by which time most people had either had the COVID virus or the vaccine, fewer than 50 million people got the shots.

Last I checked, the vaccine decreases the chance of all COVID symptoms, including the long-term ones.
Then you’re one of the people that everyone else’s herd immunity is supposed to protect. You’re one of the few that can’t tolerate the vaccine. Everyone else still needs to be vaccinated.
Ouch. I’m glad you talked to a doctor about it.
I’m gonna get my shots. I haven’t had bad enough effects to matter, so I’ll try to do my part for herd immunity. And I work with too many antivax suburban moms to feel safe, so it’s also for me, lol.
