Parents visiting from India and are looking to get the Pfizer booster. Both have got the AZ Covishield. I can’t seem to schedule them via the CVS online scheduler - can they get Pfizer booster here? What’s the process like?

Please confirm with a medical professional if mixing AZ and Pfizer is okay. Not sure if they have similar vaccine cards in India, but I’d just schedule a new appointment for them, i.e. like they’re getting the vaccine for the first time. This way they get the CDC vaccine card and have no issues getting a booster. Try Giant or Costco. Got mine at Giant.

D1 the amount is not different for adults, just children

typically no one is asking for any real info other than proof of id. you should be able to schedule normally

I second D2 & M1: we recently tried this, went to multiple pharmacies and all advices against taking the booster shots. My parents took Covishield in India as well

If you’re in NY google walk up sites

Have you looked at the CDC site? Do they have guidance? Or the Astrazeneca site?

You could also call any university health center and ask.

CDC has “no guidance” on this apparently. I spoke to a pharmacist and Walmart and they’ve been told that if you have received any vaccine other than the 3 mentioned above then you don’t need a booster.

I’d probably just schedule it as a first dose of Pfizer and call it a day. It’s the same dosage. (Which isn’t true for Moderna.)

This is what my family did. Just say you’re looking for a first dose (they had AZ and then Pfizer boosters)

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back. If the stress and surprise of just how difficult it apparently is to get pregnant wasn’t enough, the miscarriage put us over. We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.
