If I'm reading my card right, I've had five shots so far, so I don't know where that leaves me.Currently, they're recommended for people over 65 years old or who are immuncompromised.

So, the key word to focus upon is "bivalent":
I'm going to have to call the clinic anyway; I can't read the date on the final one! But all the rest were before September '22.So, the key word to focus upon is "bivalent":
You had 5 shots- check the dates on your vaccine record. Any shots that you got before September, 2022 were the original vaccine. Any shots you got after September, 2022 were the bivalent vaccine.
The April 2023 recommendation allows those over 65 years old to get a second bivalent vaccine as a booster. If you received two boosters after September, 2022, the I would recommend checking with the clinic as to whether both were bivalent.
I went thru similar with a spot on my right cheek back in 2002, about the size of an english pea. The surgeon who removed it commented afterwards that if I had waited any longer, they would have had to put me in the hospital to remove it, instead of day surgery. Luckily for me, the scar aligns with a smile line; and, isn't noticible 
About $50 in gas round trip, hour and a half one way in good conditions.
I got my second bivalent shot about 10 days ago. I had the least reaction to this shot than to any of them. My arm was a little sore and warm where I received the shot and I felt some fatigue for a few days, but I had no fever like the previous shots nor anything else. So I'm taking that as a good sign. Maybe you will have a lesser reaction as well. Good Luck.
Multiple sclerosis is an auto-immune disease.
When I was learning about interpreting research, one of the things that we were always taught to be careful about is confirmation bias.

Jeeze fuck thats all I need MS fuck that!When I was learning about interpreting research, one of the things that we were always taught to be careful about is confirmation bias.
The example that is often used is throwing a newspaper at a dog when they're doing something bad. As long as the dog doesn't see the source of the newspaper, the dog begins to believe, "When I pee on the rug, a newspaper will fall out of the sky and hit me in the head, therefore to avoid getting in the head by a newspaper, I should not pee on the rug". Just because two events happen, it doesn't mean that there's an actual relationship between the two events or that one causes the other.
If I were to read a study that said that, "We found cases where people who received the COVID-19 vaccine were later diagnosed with multiple sclerosis", I might conclude that the vaccine caused COVID-19.
What is missing are some related questions:
- What is the incidence of MS in the general population? What is the incidence of MS in the group of people who got the vaccine? The answer is about 1 in 333 people have MS. That's a pretty high incidence, even before COVID-19 was discovered in 2020.
- What was the size of the population in the studies? One of the studies that was cited had 5 patients. When that study was published in Jan, 2022, over 9 BILLION people had received COVID-19 vaccines worldwide.
- Was there an explainable physiological cause that would explain why a COVID-19 might trigger MS in someone who had not previously been vaccinated? Did the population of people who developed MS have another possible causes in common (i.e. did they have mono? did they receive other vaccines like the flu vaccine? Did they have another viral infection during that period?).
Experts in auto-immune diseases and neurological disease had similar questions to my questions. And they concluded that the link between COVID-19 vaccines and multiple sclerosis was likely to be rare, random and weak. They also pointed out the same thing that I did: people who get COVID-19 infections are more likely to develop MS than people who received the COVID-19 vaccines.
Posts misrepresent research on multiple sclerosis and COVID-19 vaccines found in WHO database
False. A database on the WHO website includes an abstract for a conference presentation about research that examined two recent cases of MS.
I assume that's the number of jabs that have been given worldwide, with many people having multiple jabs. 9 billion is more than the total number of people on the planet.
