HK - Omicron "bivalent" BioNTech Vaccine Approved

[shri]

With the continuing lack of enthusiasm for vaccines, cannot think of a single good reason for disallowing a 5th if it's over 90 or 180 days or whatever the recommendation is.

The vaccine centres are like ghost towns.

In no rush, I agree - previous vaccines started as restricted and then opened up... I am doing it for science and all ...

My reason for the "rush" is that I am off to the uk to visit my aging and now sick (probably with cancer) Mother and sick (doing chemo) sister. Thought I better do my bit to keep them safe since they will think I'm a dork if I wear a mask!

I also got my 4th dose more than 6 months ago. I wonder how effective it is now. I guess being an early adopter has these types of problems - however if I was allowed, I'd get a 5th dose.

My HKU results... Going in tomorrow for another blood draw.

You have to click BOTH the 90day and the 180 day questions. It looked obvious to me that it was one or the other, but clearly not to whoever coded the site. I managed to book after this.

I found the same thing, super annoying

For me 97.84 down from 98.03 just after 4th shot 6 months ago

I was down to near zero after some time after the 2nd shot

we would have too. Except we caught covid a few weeks before we planned to get it

Are you part of some study? How often do you get blood drawn?

EDIT: Never mind. I see the other thread on this.

I got my bivalent last Friday at Queen Mary, walk-in, no queue
Was offline Sat/Sun... probably not my worst reaction, but wasn't fun

YMMV
