Where do you stay? I live in Scotland and have had the 2 vaccines and getting booster and flu tomorrow. However, I have never heard of the vaccine being about to run out. I haven’t heard of 3rd vaccines either that is not a booster. It must be different where you live. It should be the same worldwide do you think so?
I am on methotrexate and steroids and am severely immuno suppressed. I’ve been told that by my haematologist and Rheumatologist!! I didn’t throw the severe word in for good effect lol! Sounds good even if it is totally crap!
Sorry I haven’t been much help to you. take care
Love, Lyn xx

I had the 3rd Jab about a month ago. Two weeks later I got Covid. Thankfully recovering well. But I had to come of my methorexate for two weeks while I had it.

That was the first thing my doctor told me when I walked in to see him. You can have 3td one now. I have not done that as of yet.

Has anyone had serious side effects after the 3rd dose? 11 days on and I'm still not right.

I heard a lecture by two rheumatologists yesterday https://thedo.osteopathic.org/2020/10/father-da... and they said that here in the USA the American College of Rheumatology are recommending a third full shot of Pfizer or Moderna if you are immunosuppressed (taking steroids, immunosuppressive rx's but *not necessarily if you're taking hydroxychloroquine). In addition, a half-dose booater is recommended six months later.
I'm not a doctor, and the recommendations may vary by country. So this is one perspective. Good luck!
