Third covid jab / covid booster

[Archiedog]

Hi all

Just wondering if those of you who are immunosuppressed as confused as I was with regards to the above. I like in the uk and have been on ibrance since May 20. Had my first covid jab Feb 21, second April 21. Early October I was invited for my ‘booster’ but this in fact was a third primary dose. I then need to have a booster in a further 6 months . It turns out I will then have had 4 jabs. Putting this out there as it appears there is so much confusion and we must all get the best protection we can against covid as we have enough on our plates as it is

Love to you all Helen

Ooo and I had my scan results today - Noooo progression yayyyyy

Thanks Sandra, I was so confused as had a reminder for my booster which I had already had. Turns it this wasn’t my booster but my 3rd dose . I think the problem stems as you say from the terminology and the fact that it doesn’t seem to have been made clear that certain groups would be offered a 3rd primary dose and then a booster in a further 6 months . So much to get your head around

I had my third dose of Moderna in late August. I have done fine. Will get the fourth in February.We need extra protection due. Best wishes and blessings, Hannah

Hello, I am in the same situation as you.. AZ for first 2 and the PZ for the booster... which means a second dose of PZ required.. it works in a different way.. so in theory more wide protection for us. I did turn down the flu jab at the same appointment, I am taking that later/next week.. one thing at a time!

Hi! Yes, in the USA, there is also some confusion…but I, too, got the third shot full dosage six months after the initial two. I suspect that I sill be getting boosters for as long as needed.

Congrats on no progression. Celebrate.🥰Just had a third vaccine of Pfizer in uk yesterday. Apparently I get a booster too in 6 months. I actually booked a booster but was told when I got there I would get another.
