Second dose of this year's COVID vaccine recommended for some people age 65 and up

Immunocompromised people who are age 65 or older should get a second dose of the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine, according to the latest recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In a statement released Wednesday, the CDC said the second dose should be received six months after the first dose.

The CDC also said its recommendations allow for flexibility for those who are moderately or severely immunocompromised to consider additional doses (three or more). in consultation with their health care provider.

Similar to previous seasons, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that all Americans ages 6 months and older get a shot of the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine to protect against another expected surge of the virus this fall and winter.

Still, as another fall virus season approaches, not everyone is following the CDC's advice.

Does anyone have any count of the number of total shots that have been recommended since the vaccines rolled out? It has to be 10-12 I would think. Insanity.

I am unable to take this second dose seeing that I am almost four years overdue for my first dose, *ever*.

Wouldn’t it make sense that before asking people to get a shot that they publish its efficacy? Right now we know the shot doesn’t prevent contracting or transmitting the virus, so why take it?

I donโ€™t know anyone who is getting the jab anymore, even among people who were getting vaccinated in the beginning. The idea that if something isnโ€™t working, do it more seems imprudent.

Lemmings. Same folks that took the flu shot every year.
Never had one, never will. Also never had the flu. Had covid twice, so no need for a shot.

The first one didn’t kill their quota, so have another.

I am getting over covid for the first time. No cough, no sore throat. Ridiculous fatigue and lost sense of smell though.

I consider this vax and booster.

So if we went in now, to “get current”, would they just endlessly stick shots in our arms?

They’re hoping it will kill off enough seniors to move the needle before November 5th
