Yesterday my husband and I received our vaccine booster shot for COVID, just like the previous shots these are knocking us for a bit of a loop. it’s not horrible but it’s not great either. My husband has been having bad body aches while I’ve just been feeling low energy and unable to focus.

Is it worth it?

I think it is, it’s peace of mind that we will continue to be protected, and with the booster shot, it means we will hopefully also be protected from the variants. Only time and medical studies will eventually tell us how effective these are but at the end of the day not getting the shots is that much more of a risk.

As the Holidays begin to ramp up make sure you are taking care of yourselves and also those around you. It is our responsibility to take care of those loved ones that are high risk. There will be get-togethers and family dinners during a time that COVID will be most aggressive. Please protect yourselves.
