Covid vaccine

Hello!

Just out of curiosity, how many Covid vaccines/boosters have you had up to date??

Do you know how long the vaccines last? I’m in the dark as to when I need a new booster or when I need the vaccine again. My doctor doesn’t inform me much regarding Covid 😅

Thank you!

Hi. I’ve had 5 and my understanding is you can have boosters twelve weeks between same. My doctor didn’t always call me I phoned myself to book some or you can go to drop in centres. Initially they did re aforementioned but thereafter it was up to me really. Don’t hang about, if you feel your due one just follow it through, it’s a case of looking after yourself. Hope this helps. Take care…
