I'm not a doctor or health pro but the CVS website asked me if I had had the shot in the past two months, so that would suggest it's okay to get it after that time period.

6 months would be the end of oct but I don't think anything would happen if you get it now.

Should be, though. Normal people don’t want to get covid.

No, a vax like the flu is annual, because it’s seasonal. Covid is not, although some keep expecting it to be.
Protection from Covid vax lasts about 6 months at 90%, then gradually decreases. Faster decrease if older and other health problems.

So, every 6 months is best plan.

Try and let us know.

My guess is yes.

I am under 65 and have asthma and got one in May eight months after my last one. I plan to get another one in early November.

Don't ask the pharmacist. Just sign up for one and see what happens.

If you are older than 65, my guess is definitely yes.

If under 65, you might have to check a box about a health condition given Trump's new rules. But that list is super long. Physical inactivity is one of them.

The mRNA Covid vaccines only optimally protect you for 4 months, and have always done so.

I prefer to get my Covid and flu vaccines in early November, to cover the peak of the virus season.

Get one every 6 months. Then you are protected against serious illness.
Yes, you can get one if you are in a state that has overrode silly trump rules

I am curious why do you need it so soon? Typically, it should be annual, like the flu vaccine.

It's totally a thing, and you can get one now. The formulation is different than the previous one. I got mine last Friday.

Do you have other chronic health issues? I did not think this was a thing anymore for normal people.

It's been only about 6 months since the last one. Can I get the new one now or am I supposed to wait longer?
