Am confused; there is Moderna bivalent jab available. The news just announced Pfizer bivalent jab will be available. This means we have a choice on which jab to take? Thank you.

Yes should be. But may depend on which vaccination centre or clinic u want. Not all may stock both brands.

The Pfizer vaccine is not yet being administered - news reports say \"by end of the year\". So if you go now, it's still only the Moderna vaccine. Eventually, I expect people will be able to choose.

I will probably go for whichever is most convenient! I doubt there's much to choose between them, just like the first jabs.

Have you taken the 2nd booster before the re-infection?[/quote]

Unfortunately no. I was waiting for the bivalent ( it was not available at the point)

Since the symptoms is relatively mild this time, there won't be much long Covid effects.

Even with mild symptoms first time, you also dont want to have covid.
Why ?

Because

You wont know 2nd, 3rd times, one can start showing up severe symptoms, because each time catch covid, your lungs already been weakened, or scared tissue. So, don't be deceived, by \"mild\" symptoms.
