Good to hear. I'm not keen on subjecting myself to boosters that aren't targeting the dominant strain(s). It seems careless to recommend a booster that "provides some protection" -- how much ?, dunno, clinical studies don't seem reliable -- because the odds are that the vaccines will have some side effect(s) in the future. That's true of any medical treatment. I think the rollout was rushed. I am not comfortable with a vaccine that is brand new, with no long term studies, qnd under intense political (economic) pressure. Cynicism aside, I think the haste was also to stem a deadly virus in the interest of saving lives. The vaccine is the lesser of two evils, imo. A "pandemic" sort of implies that the people must make tough choices, sort of like surviving a zombie apocalypse.
Masking should be required and violators should be fined. People are so self-absorbed and whiny. If being required to wear a mask is grounds for hysteria and screaming about socialism, then I'm at a loss. These people seem to only care about their "freedom" (sorry, I don't think a mask requirement is too much to ask), while failing to think that others should have the freedom to shop, work, etc., without being exposed to an unnecessarily high viral load.
It's a mask. Get over it.
