My husband has several conditions that can compromise the immune system so he also wrote in one that wasn't listed.

Do check out the list at the CDC web site. I posted the urls in my reply #42 above.

Btw, thanks for asking. I'm happy to clarify.

Here's the deal eleny Aug 2021 #13

Hypertension wasn't on the form I helped someone fill out. Just stuff like cancer pnwmom Aug 2021 #20

HIPAA means you can bullshsit this form Bobstandard Aug 2021 #27

True. But the person I responded to said hypertension was one of the approved conditions. n/t pnwmom Aug 2021 #28

It was listed in the second form I filled out eleny Aug 2021 #29

Were you vaccinated at a doctor's office, a drugstore chain, or what? I'm just curious. nt pnwmom Aug 2021 #37

As I said in my OP - Walgreens eleny Aug 2021 #39

It's in the list on the CDC website - Here's the url eleny Aug 2021 #42

Does Moderna do one also? Tree Lady Aug 2021 #59

If you got Moderna before, cdc says as a booster you should get Moderna again. LisaL Aug 2021 #64

My son is in the Pfzier booster trial LetMyPeopleVote Aug 2021 #12

My youngest and I got tested today LetMyPeopleVote Sep 2021 #73

Wonderful! Moebym Aug 2021 #18

Hypertension is not on the list of CDC's approved conditions. LisaL Aug 2021 #22

I was going to wait until October eleny Aug 2021 #30

So basically you got the shot when you weren't qualified for it? USALiberal Aug 2021 #66

I circled a condition that was listed on the form they had me fill out eleny Aug 2021 #69

Goodness gracious. LanternWaste Aug 2021 #70

Fix your stolen quote! Nt USALiberal Aug 2021 #72

how did you get permission to get the third shot TomDaisy Aug 2021 #21

Right now the shot is approved for people who are immuno compromised. LisaL Aug 2021 #23

That's what I learned, too eleny Aug 2021 #34

You don't get permission eleny Aug 2021 #31

P.S. You can also write in a condition that isn't listed on the form eleny Aug 2021 #71

I got mine because of vaccine hesitancy... Bobstandard Aug 2021 #26

My cousin and her husband got theirs the day after my husband received his booster eleny Aug 2021 #33

The pharmacy where I got mine had no problem questioning me about LisaL Aug 2021 #38

Yeah, they aren't permitted to question you like that eleny Aug 2021 #41

Different pharmacies are doing it differently. LisaL Aug 2021 #63

When my cousin asked the pharmacy staff about it in a general way... eleny Aug 2021 #68

You go, girl!!!! Stinky The Clown Aug 2021 #32

That's the goal! eleny Aug 2021 #44

Sounds Like Me After Moderna #2 ProfessorGAC Aug 2021 #40

Nice when it disappears like that and you were back in gear eleny Aug 2021 #43

Yep! ProfessorGAC Aug 2021 #46

I thought that the CDC recommended waiting eight months from your second dose before totodeinhere Aug 2021 #45

Depends ProfessorGAC Aug 2021 #47

Thanks. n/t totodeinhere Aug 2021 #50

You can get it if you're immune system is compromised eleny Aug 2021 #48

Thanks. So I take it that if I am not immune compromsied then I should wait eight totodeinhere Aug 2021 #51

That's my understanding, too eleny Aug 2021 #53

Yes, there is the issue of vaccines going to waste since they only have a fixed shelf life. totodeinhere Aug 2021 #55

And worldwide, countries are clamoring for vaccine... eleny Aug 2021 #57

Terminology: Booster vaccines are still in development and not even emergency approved. Hortensis Aug 2021 #49

Thanks for posting this, Hortensis eleny Aug 2021 #54

Scary. My husband has a lot of living to do also. Hortensis Aug 2021 #58

Third dose of the same vaccine is a real booster. LisaL Aug 2021 #62

It "boosts" in common parlance, but it's not the booster vaccines being developed. Hortensis Aug 2021 #65

The third dose of the same vaccine, LisaL Aug 2021 #67

Did you have issues with your first two shots? LiberalFighter Aug 2021 #60
