September 20th, maybe.

My understanding is that, except for the immunocompromised, one will need to wait until 8 months after your second shot to get the booster. That, of course, may change as new info becomes available. That would put mine in October and I'll be first in line as soon as they tell me I'm eligible.

That's only if you live near Custer.  😄  The Biden administration said Sept. 20 a few weeks ago, but others within the administration are trying to backtrack on that.

"

When can I get a COVID-19 vaccine booster?

Not immediately. The goal is for people to start receiving a COVID-19 booster shot beginning in the fall, with individuals being eligible starting 8 months after they received their second dose of an mRNA vaccine (either Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna). This is subject to authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and recommendation by CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). FDA is conducting an independent evaluation to determine the safety and effectiveness of a booster dose of the mRNA vaccines. ACIP will decide whether to issue a booster dose recommendation based on a thorough review of the evidence."

As of right now, I will be getting the booster shot. I will do what ever it takes to keep myself, my family and friends safe from this thing. 

If 8 months is the timeframe, then I am looking at late December to early January for a booster shot.

I got my second dose in February, so I may be due for the booster next month. My wife got hers slightly earlier than me, so her date is coming up, I think.

I will be “8 Months” in December but since I got the Moderns shot I may need to wait longer.  One question I have is if getting other vaccines may require a delay for the booster.  I was planning on getting the shingles vaccine this fall and that is a 2-shot vaccine.

I've also heard some saying that the booster doesn't have to be the same brand as the initial two shots?

This is accurate, at least from my family's experience. My wife and mother both got a Pfizer booster after having the Moderna initial shots. 

Addendum: Neither has had side effects of any kind after 10 days. 

Addendum: We checked with a nephew (pediatric oncologist at St Jude's) who told us that the booster is simply another shot of what was given in the beginning of last year - it is not "new science". He highly recommended the booster (and that it need not be the same version as the original).

It's not a golf sub-forum, so we don't award reputation for stuff that's specifically not golf-related.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 51 (29 Apr 26) - Worked with a few of the golf team kids plus my grandson (he’s too young for the team as it’s middle-high school age and he’ll be 10 Sat).  He put on a small hitting clinic (hitting off the same tees as the rest of the boys) - one of the older kids called him a “coach”.  Worked in a few shots for myself - had the light bag: driver, 7w, 4 - 6 - 8 - Pw - Sw (DCI 962’s except the Sw a 981) and Zebra putter….got in some great tee shots, a couple of recovery and an awesome up and down for bogie: 55 yds out, hitting 4th shot due to 2nd getting tangled in limbs - see the window I need to hit for a tight spinner with the Sw - nail it to a postage letter distance from the cup for a tap in bogie….my kind of practice.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 21, April 29.  Before going to work this morning, I worked in my indoor practice room for 20 minutes.   This was entirely 6-iron shots with the usual step.  Video yesterday showed me that I'm still straightening my trail leg too much (leading to the backswing length issue I've been working to fix), so I focused on not doing that in my rehearsal swings.

      Exactly correct.   I was absolutely certain about the penalty (none here), but the bit about where they play from can be really confusing the first time you read it.  In my big paper rule book, i used colored highlighters to make it clear.  Good thing I did, at the Cascades there's little to no cell service, so using the rules app on the phone wasnn't possible.

      Taking a crack it, but looks pretty clear. 11.1  Ball in Motion Accidentally Hits Person or Outside Influence. a. No Penalty to Any Player If a player’s ball in motion accidentally hits any person (including the player) or outside influence: There is no penalty to any player. This is true even if the ball hits the player, the opponent or any other player or any of their caddies or equipment. Reading further down it looks like they have to play the ball as it lies. No replay from the previous spot.

      I had an interesting one yesterday, a local qualifier for the US Senior Open, at the Cascades Course at the Homestead.  Well, first things first, the VSGA arrnged for the officials to play the Cascades on Monday at the players' practice round rate.  Its lots of fun, rather old-style (built in the 1920s).  anyway, a player missed a short putt, and (apparently embarrassed) took a step to be ready to tap the ball back in.  The ball lipped out, and hit the player's foot.  I was nearby, and they waved me over, and asked "What do we do now?"  I was pretty sure of the ruling, but asked them to wait for a few seconds while i double-checked.  I did have it correct, even though its one of the more confusing rules in the book right now.  I'll leave the correct answer out for now, in case anyone wants to guess, or research it, and post their ruling.
