Actually the frustration with people is that they lack common sense when it comes to getting vaccinated vs. taking your chances with COVID. 90% of people dying from covid or having serious complications are the unvaccinated, roughly. The people that view that as being NBD and a better outcome than getting a vaccination seriously lack common sense.
Damn shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that

Got boosted with Moderna yesterday after Pfizer shots in mid March/early April. Not "officially" eligible, but will be travelling over Thanksgiving (for a change) and wife is a health care worker. As others have indicated, it was no big deal with no eligibility questions asked and folks administering the shots seemed happy to see folks getting their boosters. No side effects with either the first 2 Pfizer doses or this Moderna booster other than it feels like someone punched me in the arm.
Buy the ticket...take the ride.

Nine lung transplants performed in B.C. as a result of COVID infections
https://vancouversun.com/news/nine-l...vid-infections
Of the nine British Columbians who received a lung transplant, eight of them had “no comorbidities,” meaning they were healthy before contracting COVID, said Dr. John Yee, the surgeon who performed the transplants. The patients range in age from early-30s to mid-50s and worked in public-facing jobs, although not all of them contracted the virus at work.
Yee said none of the nine people were vaccinated because they all got sick before the COVID vaccines were widely available, and all are now vaccinated.

The article is paywalled so I can't decipher its specific claims but so far in the clinical trials there have been no vaccine-induced myocarditis in children, age 5-11.
Myocarditis typically does not happen in pre-teenage kids. That doesn't mean it won't happen, but if it does it will probably be very rare.

That's science... finding differing observations. The one that convinced most was the fact that when a ship comes in you see the mast first, then the ship. Documenting that evidence is science.. Accurate enogh measurements would even tell you how large the sphere is. Gut feel that the earth must be flat because that's how it looks and feels from the same point of view of many individuals is common sense..
Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

Yeah...wish it wasn't paywalled...unfortunately, it is an opinion peace (as stated) from a Doctor and is directed at what should be communicated to parents.
The info that I saw, said the trials were a total of 4,700 kids age 5-11. Is that what you have seen?
I presume some of those are female, who appear to be at a lower risk for myocarditis, and then moderna is not even applying for approval for that age group due to this risk (at least that is the info that I saw).
I have to caveat every thing unless I have formally published scientific studies so that a conversation in thought/reason is not labeled me spreading misinformation to benefit my so called extremist political agenda....since apparently worrying about your kids is a right wing view, despite both my wife and I being fully vaxxed and trying to get boosters."We had nice 3 days in your autonomous mountain realm last weekend." - Tom from Austria (the Rax ski guy)

The trial was 2200 kids with a third getting placebo. The real trial is just starting

This post is confusing. What are you trying to convey?

Yes, we definitely will have a chat with the cardiologist about it. At his last physical we asked his pediatrician and the answer was "I will be getting my child (who is in my sons class) the vaccine." That is obviously a different answer then a detailed discussion with a specialist up to date with his health history.

I'm not sure which study is being discussed but researchers had to retract several preprint studies that miscalculated higher heart inflammation risk for Moderna and Pfizer Covid vaccines due to math errors.
For example: Covid study linking vaccines to rare side effect of myocarditis was wrong, researchers admit

Man, I know right? Since literally everyone I know is vaccinated and hopefully in 6 months my kids will be as well, it’s just getting really old being told “hey, we still need to worry about this population over here who won’t do the right thing, can you please do the right thing and work with your kids at home, take time off, get swabs shoved up you and your kids noses, etc”.

Holy crap...is your only purpose in life to cunt up every thread on TGR? I made zero political statements about anything. Your inability to have a normal thought out conversation about anything like a normal human is a joke. Again.....being concerned about your kids is not political (and neither was the article...which was not behind a paywall on my phone when I read it taking my morning shit). Is USA Today owned by the far right and I just didn't know it? Holy cow, I need to put you on ignore. I figured you would be adult enough to separate the Padded Room from Polly Ass. I obviously over estimated your maturity and thought it was playful banter relegated to the shit box. Please stop chasing me around TGR for no apparent reason. Your obsession with misinterpreting my words is creepy as shit.

Gretsch--I don't see anything wrong with your kid being in second million, or third million to be vaccinated. There are 28 million kids to vaccinate, plus people who need boosters, and first and second shots. It's not going to happen overnight, even if the doses are out there, so not every kid can get it immediately. Just don't be the last.
I wouldn't think your kid's bicuspid AV increases his risk of getting vaccinated and he is going to have to be vaccinated at some point. In looking at the myocarditis statistics remember that the risk is immediate, while the risk of covid, assuming it becomes endemic, is lifelong, so the benefit of the vaccine increases the farther out in time you look.
Pretty sharp of your pediatrician to catch the valve. I was 60 when they caught mine. (And 68 before they had to do anything about it.) But then they didn't have heart echoes when I was a kid. The stethoscope had just been invented I think.

Cunt up this thread? This thread has been cunted forever you stupid fuck. And you, our little anti vax snowflake, are trolling here.
adult? I’m adult enough to see your dumb politics in this gretch. If you were half as smart as you tell yourself you are you’d see it too. Now put me on ignore so you can have your safe space snowflake.

Q: Now that I've had my booster am I super human or just back to where I started when I got the first two jabs?

Thank you for sharing your experience Goat. It was scary when we first learned of it, but the more we read, it becomes more of a "monitor it every couple years and nothing should come of it until he is at least 50." He doesn't have any restrictions, plays normal, runs fast, skis his ass off, etc. Good info on the immediate, etc. I definitely am not read up enough on the long term effects of myocarditis. If he had not already had COVID, definitely would be more worried about preventing it in the first place....although I am sure getting it a second time (like my wife, even after being fully vaxxed) would rank higher on the pluses/minuses list when making the decision.
Because he was IUGR and we live at a high elevation, he was part of a joint study being done with CU and a university in Brazil. Apparently, the rates of IUGR are much much higher in children born at higher elevations. As part of that study, he was doing regular scans/tests. Luckily, everything else health wise was normal for him and he quickly was released out of the study, but not before they found the valve issue. He is a strong kid and despite being born premature and only 4lbs, 7 oz at birth, didn't spend a second in the NICU.
However, stuff like this makes you think more about it then maybe a parent that didn't go through that...you know, since my wife and I appear to be fully vaccinated and about to be boosted "anti-vax snowflakes""We had nice 3 days in your autonomous mountain realm last weekend." - Tom from Austria (the Rax ski guy)

From how I read this official eligibility statement, we're pretty much all eligible in the State of Colorado's opinion:
Who should get a booster dose?
You should get a booster dose if you:
Are 65 years old or older.
Live in a long-term care facility.
Are 18 to 64 years old and at high risk of severe COVID-19.
Are 18 to 64 years old and at high risk because of where you live or work. For example, if you live in a college dorm with lots of other students or you work at a grocery store where you are in contact with many people every day, you may be considered high risk.
You received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine for your initial dose.
Colorado’s prevalence of COVID-19 makes the state a high-risk place to live and work. Anyone who is 18+ who would like a booster and is six months past their initial series of an mRNA vaccine or two months past a J&J vaccine should make a plan to get one or discuss with their doctor.
