From “Your Local Epidemiologist”

As of now:

65+ are eligible.
Under 65 with certain health conditions are eligible. (Although this is very unclear right now, and largely depends on how FDA changes the licenses.) BUT (and this is important): Recommendations are self-attestation at pharmacies. This means pharmacists are not permitted to ask for proof of underlying conditions.
Everyone else, including kids and pregnant women, may get the vaccine if they and their clinician agree it’s appropriate (called shared clinical decision-making). This was a really important change that the CDC overrode RFK Jr. on. While there is a legitimate debate around annual boosters, there is clear evidence on the importance of a primary vaccine series for kids and for immunity passed to babies from pregnant mothers.
Note: Insurance may not cover your vaccine under this category. Unfortunately, some payers have a long history of not covering shared clinical decision-making, so I would expect variability in coverage.</>

So in other words, nothing changed, and the fulminating that was going on was off the mark again.

BTW: LOL @ "the CDC overrode RFK Jr. on" they work for him. They didn't override anything.

The other day, Jedi was asking about vaccines. I answered with the info he was looking for.


For some odd but all too familiar reason, you decided to use the occasion for a context-free dope-rant.

You were the one doing the ranting, not me. I believed the term you were using was 'evil'.

Thank you sir, very much.

me and Wifey will get it for sure - and our attesting would actually be true.

Kid-wise we've always gotten in. In this twisted world - I guess I want to know that the vaccine isn't screwy because of someone's agenda or tantrum and then I'd lean toward attesting to whatever to get it done.

It is unreal to me that we who cheer 'less government!' and 'freedom!'---- all of a sudden love Michelle Obama-ism in RFK, and we love the government forbidding us from getting a shot we've gotten for a few years now.

Michelle made recommendations

RFKJr makes scientifically unjustified regulations

Big difference.

Wrong again. They withdrew the recommendation that kids get COVID shots. They didn't say "you can't have a shot if you want one".

But that's what you wanted them to say...but they didn't do that.

****

I strongly felt she had NO business dictating things like school lunches or bullying food and snack companies. That's Putin stuff. He

I call them like I see them - SOME of what RFK is doing is the same as her.
