Another Covid Booster

Aren’t we lucky to be in the “over 65 category?” All told we have had about eight Covid vaccines and boosters. As far as we can tell, neither my husband nor I have ever had Covid - an unusual circumstance based on what we hear from our friends and neighbors. And many have contracted it in the last six months. So, wanting to continue our winning streak, we thought it would be a good idea to get another booster since our last vaccine was in September 2023. And since we will be venturing out to visit family later this month it’s always a good thing to be prepared - especially around a college aged grandson. So we picked up the required paperwork when we went grocery shopping on Tuesday and walked over to Giant yesterday. It wasn’t very busy at the pharmacy, but we needed to wait 45 minutes for them to get things prepared. We picked up a couple of groceries and then we took our morning walk in the neighborhood there. The time passed quickly and when we went back to the counter everything was ready. We know the process all too well by now. Obviously a lot of people don’t care any more about Covid, but the CDC recommendations came out recently. And being in health care all of our careers and also being in the “danger category” were reason enough to get it done. So now we have sore arms and are a bit fatigued. But it still beats the alternative based on the stories we hear.
