We're advised to have a booster shot for Covid19 three months after the administration of the second dose. Some of the people I know think they no longer needed the booster shot. Supposedly I'll be getting mind by April. Though, I was OK and no major complaint with the last doses except with occasional numbness on the arm where it's administered, I noticed that the rashes on my skin before the administration took some time to heal unlike before I was administered with the vaccine. Surely, the rashes are not cause by the vaccine because it's already there before and those rashes will just develop from time to time and will eventually go away after a week but the latest took a month and half before it disappear.

@ZedSmart I see. For me, the allergic reaction appears after the vaccine shot. I can't even get up for a day. Some people said it was normal, but I guess the normalcy has gone to a different level.
Hopefully the booster shot is not going to be compulsory. Even when I report to the health services, they only said it was normal when I already have a medical card like geez

I am done with the booster shot. I got Sinovac in my first and second dose but this time I got AstraZeneca as my booster shot. I think we need it to further protect us from getting the worst of the infection especially when the virus tries to mutate.

@ZedSmart True we were supposed to have it last January but sadly we got infected. That is why we chose to get the booster because we saw the need to boost our immune system. Although I see the decline of the spread I guess we cannot be sure about the virus as they are constantly mutating to newer variants every now and then and only then vaccinated persons can further weaken the strength of the virus.

That could be a entirely different problem and they actually say vaccine helps immune system. Antibodies and what not, what ever they do. 
You should talk to doctor though and sounds like nothing serious if it goes away but could be a problem it keeps coming back longer each time.

@ZedSmart That is good, there is a vitamin or something I used to take. I read up on this because I actually had a nasty staph infection and was reading of like clove herb I guess and sister was going to store asked her to buy some for me and she asked about it and they said that is more for women but it will purify the blood even in males.
Meaning even after antibiotics I was getting stuff like rashes and why I got that make my blood clean again haha.

@crossbones27 It's good to hear that it works well. I'm not sure if I can find clove here. Well, I'll try to look more information about it and its availability.

I have not been vaccinated at all.
I appreciate all the volunteers that are in the live clinical trials taking place now. All the test subjects will be a huge help in compiling data to determine the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine.
So far, 3-4 doses still won't prevent the spread of the virus. Maybe a year from now they will have perfected the vaccine and know side effects, adverse reactions and long term effects.
I will wait.

@Vikingswest1 I agree with that. We have no other choices here, get the vaccine or just stay at home. Go out but show negative RT PCR test result.

@ZedSmart
I am very lucky to be retired and I live in an isolated place.
I have spent the past two years leaving the house only for shopping two or three times a month.
I am at low risk for Covid and I'm relatively healthy.
Even if it was mandated here, I'd refuse.
In a year, I might feel different but I won't take it voluntarily.

No way, and it is just a waste of time.
just imagine the side effects.
vaccines are experimental.
I had first shot and that is enough for me.
