If you look at the website below, it says that Moderna will be available at 4 out of 5 of the current Joint Testing and Vacc Centres, Pfizer at all 5, and Novavax at one of them. I read somewhere that there will eventually be 5 more such centres opening, though not sure which vaccines will be offered at those.

Ok, am thinking of excuses...
If 1st or 2nd booster is essential for the majority (am excluding the vulnerable and seniors), then why so many vaccination centres are closing down? This means the demand is no longer there ie maybe 2 shots are sufficient and the 1st and 2nd booster may not be essential.

I think the jabs will naturally be more spaced out in future because people may delay, those who have caught it will also delay, some will have died. Whereas in the beginning, they were trying to vaccinate millions within a few months.

It seems not many vaccination centres are offering Moderna jabs.

LNW and ngl
May I ask if you have taken Pfizer for your 2nd booster?

My first 2 doses were Pfizer. Then I took Moderna for both boosters because I read Moderna will give more protection. Anyway, so far so good. I have not contracted covid yet

Most young people may think they are already well protected by 3 shots and the 04th shot is not essential but Star, both of us are not young....why don't want to get the 04th jab to better protect yourself?
