I strongly suspect you’re going to have doctors leaning forward on what constitutes a preexisting condition in this case. I think the Hippocratic oath may even require it. The booster provides additional protection for an illness that *usually* resolves quickly but can lead to serious illness …

I get vaccinations by walking to the (not yet closed) Rite-Aid blocks away and asking for them, not by figuring out how I can possibly talk to a doctor and get a prescription.
I suppose if they really want us to die horrible deaths, we'll need a dr. appt for a tetanus booster.
"Nearly three-quarters of Americans age 6 months and older have an underlying medical condition that puts them at higher risk, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."

These shots are not that expensive but watch the FDA make them that way.
long covid took him out for over two years..still not normal
The operative word is not choice. The operative word is racism.
Even taking a so-called "biologic" for something like psoriasis depresses immune response...
I doubt they'd add more verification work for employees if not forced to by insurance or government.
It's that "if not forced to" part we don't yet have clarity on...
But the current status is not that bad, in my experience.

I wouldn't be able to safely work and would be forced to quit. I'd also lose my health insurance.
Trump's budget bill will make my ACA plan unaffordable.
He hates Americans.
What if you work or live in congregate housing?
What if you, for some weird reason, just don’t want to get sick?
🤪
they just wanted exclusivity.
Sociopaths.
I had perfected my over-the-mask “you bout to get something you really don’t want” stare, looks like time to get back in practice
I wish I was religious and believed in hell, so I could at least know all of these people would be tortured for eternity.
Oh, wait…
1. What are medicolegal implications?
2. What are payment implications?
Most reporting I have read on this is confused on those two questions.

So many Americans died from Covid, it’s boosting Social Security to the tune of $205 billion
*very loose definition of fittest
Once before the vaccine was available the second time after several boosters.
The illness was nightmare and day difference.
Do not take our vaccine away! 💉
What is surprising is the number of us that want us to die as well 🤷
My neighbor is a doctor that could give 2 shits, and always goes along. He also believes both political parties are the same!
These coddled fuckers are not always the brightest.
Because skeptic implies diligence and attention to detail
RFK Jr and Trump have no feel for our freedoms or safety
Freedom and safety are the highest ground in our politics
["always has been" meme with 4 emojis]
Can you believe this shit?

Fiction writers from 30 years ago had bestsellers on this type of warfare.
After 10 COVID infections, one's chance of having Long COVID are 93%. The spot on, that same projection said after 2 infections 25% 3 infections 37%...those were exactly what shook out.
I definitely noticed memory issues, and started struggling to stay awake, and when I did a sleep study my oxygen levels got down to 73%
Now daily steroids, CPAP, and supplemental oxygen
was nonplussed at having to wait a few weeks behind the 65+ folks but the reasons seemed fair enough
These limitations don't seem sensible at all
Trump + RFK Jr aren't champions of free choice
fwiw I say annual vax not boosters
But the reasons I had to wait were understandable then
It’s madness.
Modern medical science knows how to control for other factors — like other infections.
And you're absolutely correct -- the anti-mandate crowd demanded the freedom to choose; RFK Jr and his Minions of Malice want to stop vaccines, based on warped notions and bizarre schemes.
vaccine hurdles like this one will kill people
37% had symptoms lasting over 4 weeks
Over half paused training for 4–8 weeks
At 4 months post-infection:
40% still reported reduced performance
64% had ongoing limitations in sports participation
and these are athletes.

I am so angry and scared.
vaccines are miracles, but some of them—including current covid vaccines—don’t prevent all transmission and infection, and should be part of a multilayered strategy.
please mask up, folks.
1) High Blood Pressure (even if controlled)
2) Diabetes
3) Elevated Cholesterol
4) Elevated BMI (which is most people in the US)
Use anything you got.
Psychopaths
The Hippocratic Oath is a fantasy.
“Prescribing the shots in healthy people under 65 would be considered off-label use, making it less likely that insurers would broadly cover the shots.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/17/health/fda-novavax-covid-vaccine.html?
I suspect doctors will simply use the booster off-label. The problem is that insurance may not pay for off-label usage.
Ridiculous? Sure, but no more ridiculous than the absolute JUNK SCIENCE THESE FUCKERS ARE PUSHING.

My own condition isn't on the list either, because it doesn't increase my risk. I want it for economic reasons and to protect others.
I’m going to have to tell my primary care doctor that I’ve become a smoker at age 61. It’s not entirely untrue – since January I’ve become fond of my vape and use it regularly, just not for tobacco.
My mom was big on honesty, yet I think she’ll smile down if I do whatever I need to get the vax.
(No need for condolences. Mom was 90 and I was so lucky to be her daughter!)
Having a static fuzz brain was the absolute worst experience.
It was so weird to struggle to find words for the first time in my life, but whenever I reached for them they simply weren’t there.
To that I say, "Let a thousand Luigis bloom."
A huge chunk of the country has one or more of those .
