      (Since I’m waving magic scheduling wands: Moderna meeting postponed, as the company announces they’re only sending first doses to poorer countries—especially those potentially facing a winter wave—and boosters for their already stellar vaccine will have to wait until after that).

          My mom is a 77-year-old teaching in person. She needs the booster.

          I got the booster. Took 4 hours, from going to the Google to getting the shot. Walked there, too. Hope your mom does as well.

          For men under 50 J&J -> Pfizer might be the combo

          Would your magic wand allow my 75 yo mom to get a Pfizer booster instead?

          Heterologous boosts are done in many countries.

          They likely scheduled that purposely, they probably already have decided on the last one so theyre letting the rest go first so they can pitch their own and call it fair

          Serious question: why can’t these all happen at once? Do we not have enough expertise to set up separate simultaneous tracks? If not, divide and conquer with UK, CAN, AUS, EU and others? Is this a ‘war’ or a bean bag tournament? @michaelzlin
