So here's an interesting data point:
The Surgeon General popped up on my twitter feed yesterday imploring people to get boosted for the holidays, which reminded me that I hadn't even been tracking the current CDC recommendations for COVID shots. Unlike Bogie's AO, Tampa still has some folks voluntarily masking, but otherwise we're done with it.
Anyways, CDC says that you should definitely get the new bivalent (? didn't know we had a new one) mRNA shot if you haven't gotten one yet, or if your last bivalent booster was more than 2 months ago. I mentioned that to my liberal, RN, works at a very full hospital wife (Who did got the bivalent shot in Sep, apparently) looked at that and was like "No way am I getting a booster every 2 months. 6 Months MAYBE, Probably once a year."
When you've lost the liberal, female, healthcare workers, you've lost the population.
I told her that unless it was required of me, or the vaccine/COVID risk profile for my age and health changed drastically I didn't see myself getting another booster, and she agreed that made sense, which is another large shift in opinion.
I wonder how much that is regionally affected.
