COVID-19 2nd Booster shots...

 

It's been interesting to listen to people discussing the COVID vaccinations with the 2nd Booster now being rolled out for those who are in the vulnerable category particularly those over 50s with underlying health conditions and especially targeting Maori and Pasifika peoples over 50 too.

There are many who have caught the COVID virus and are deciding not to get more shots because of the antibodies that they believe that now have. Some have even contracted COVID variants on more than two occasions and have said that catching the flu or cold was worse.

Despite the different feedback and conversations I've been aware of, I'd decided to continue with my shots, in being on the cautious side, but am still aware that it's not everyone's cup-of-tea.

This artwork on the left was one that I found really interesting when I visited a COVID vaccination clinic. It has various New Zealand iconic birdlife that one is to try and find but I forgot to include the caption as I was more interested in the beautiful artwork that doesn't credit who the artist was.

Suffice to say that it kept me occupied in having to wait the usual 15 minutes in case of an allergic reaction after getting the booster and I think I found most, if not all, of the said birdlife. It was quite relaxing and fun but they really should credit the artist.

I also took along my youngest to get the flu shot as that's been a real difficulty last year when getting sick with the cold or flu from attending school on multiple occasions. That's the first time too that flu shots have been encouraged for pre-teens.

All of this before the school holidays...
