President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden, plan on taking the booster shot as soon
as they are eligible to do so.

I easily got scheduled for a third shot but I elected to cancel the appt. There is confusion regarding the timing of the shot. I'll wait for Oct....8 months out.

I had my 1st shot on May 6th which was Pfizer. My 2nd shot in July was Moderna. I was told it was OK to mix. Now there there’s an issue because I may not be able to drive across the border in to the USA because of that. We go to Disney every year….if I can’t cross the border because I got the wrong vaccine combo I’ll be heartbroken.
