Interesting article, which explains wy some folk already have/are having 3 or even 4 doses…
and gives some more info on how to get that “extra” jab some of us might need…
Thanks @Stella - very clear directions for us.
Just need to make sure that the “3rd-vax-covid” Appointment is for at least 6 months after the last vax-covid jab…
Some might find not all centres are offering an Appointment quite that far ahead, but it will all come together, gently gently…
Interestingly I popped into my pharmacy today, and he has put us on his agenda for third jab - six months after 2nd one - and for flu jabs.
Flu jab apparently starting from 26th October this year, so 2 weeks later than normal.
It would seem that the 3rd Booster jab will be with Pfizer/Moderna even if first two vaccinations were Astra Zeneca then
That sounds right, @rabbit - as far as I can see from the vaccine supply charts, there aren’t any current contracts with Astra Zeneca but the charts may possibly be out of date?
Edit: Correction - there appear to be new contracts for AZ and also Janssen so I imagine the 3rd dose could be any of them
Doctolib gives the option of Moderna or Pfizer. is it best to stay with what one has already had?
No one knows…
"Selon l’avis de la HAS, les deux vaccins à ARNm, Pfizer et Moderna, étant d’une grande efficacité contre les formes graves de Covid-19, y compris celles liées au variant Delta, il n’y a pas lieu de recommander un vaccin plutôt que l’autre pour la 3e dose. "
… both are good and there’s nothing to say which is best… just make your choice from the 2 on offer…
