I think I saw that the 4th shot (second booster) was approved in Australia for anybody over 30... Maybe I'm hallucinating.
My wife is considering get hers even though she is under 50. There was a lot of COVID around her schools last may and June and there's a whole lot more now in the community, she was one of the only wearing masks, and all staff have a gag order from talking about it at school.
Winter, summer, it's all confusing when you're upside down.
Under 50 but have asthma so boosters are still recommended.Quote:

Btw KQ, two hours after I posted about feeling crappy from booster #2 I suddenly felt good again lol.
Wife got second booster today. She had been putting it off because of COVID in February, however, with the news being so grim, she did it. I got my 2nd booster back in April. Give me another one, doc!
Oh good - I'm glad. My bicep is a bit sore, maybe a little bit in my trap too but so far nothing else.Quote:

Went back to Pfizer for this one. Originally I had Pfizer then boosted with Moderna but now back to Pfizer and will probably stay there for how many other shots I need to get.
Well we're negative this morning after 2+ days of migraines, low fever, chills, and abdominal chaos. She's still not 100% but planning to shop (masked) tomorrow. If things aren't all good Monday test again...
Can you please do curbside? I did that the two confirmed times COVID was in our house, even though I was testing negative (and had no symptoms). While I prefer to pick stuff out, I gladly had some teenager pick shit out for me and load it in the back of the Sienna while I stayed up front masked with open windows.Quote:

Hell even the Instacart folks are running around unmasked and not testing.. Betting they're out there working even if they know they have it. They have to. No sick pay for gig workers.
If memory serves me, you've done your share of shaming.Quote:

Of course, they really don’t know what variant they had. For one, their county indicated that BA.5 was <40% of sequenced samples at the time they were infected.
This is becoming an issue with planning a medium-sized family gathering that will include elderly peeps.
Absolutely! Especially in the pre vax days when this shit and people who thought it was a hoax had healthcare facilities overrun. FWIW, negative again this morning.Quote:

Just how much do you miss Epicski? Let's say, on a scale of Riser3 to SumJongGuy.Quote:

I haven't heard of Joan, so we're probably not quite on the same level. I take it peak Epic occurred before she sold?Quote:

You might think they'd be out there close to SumJongGuy in the official order, but no: between them and him are usually a few maggots who knew Epicski only by reputation. Until it was over.
For example, this was the scale a few years ago:
riser3: there is only one forum
BushwackerinPA: do you even dolphin turn?
Ghost of Carl: Hugh's posts there were uninspiring
Delco714: It was ok; needed a Harry Potter subforum
Yetiman: Epicski was Zero Ogdens
Iceman: Now where do I find the real beta on goggle VLT for all light conditions?
Waistdeepgroomers: TGR was easier when there was EpicSki
Fugitive: Tech Talk is pwned by the bootfitters' cabal and should be challenged
Ghostofseasonspast: desperately hoping for a visit from 18/19
SumJongGuy: in my dreams I'm still some kind of bear
Pretty sure it could use an update.
Wow you obsess over other ski forums like Bernie Propane obsessed over Hillary LOL!Quote:

They have one indoor meeting room, occasionally used for corporate events.
I'll be wearing a mask for awhile yet.
Sure, but they could have all gone to a co-worker’s birthday party at the local Hooters. Who knows the different exposures people have.Quote:

But, no matter how I feel, if I see a sign requesting it, or most employees at a place wearing a mask I cover up too just out of consideration even if I don't feel the threat.Quote:

That's me though. All I expect of anyone else is just to follow the local sinage and ordinances.
I found the answer..Quote:

No need to double mask if you have a decent fitting N95, KN95, or KF94 (Korean version of N95). Or do you have a big beard? I'm not wearing a mask outdoors but depending on the situation it's certainly not zero risk. Certainly no reason to feel like you're doing too much. Now about that monkey pox . . .Quote:
