Cancer patient eligible for a third dose, my first two shots were Pfizer, my work is offering Moderna. I can get Pfizer but only if I Uber to a Rite Aide.
Which shot should I go for?

Just make sure you get a adapter as each uses different plugs sadly.Just get the one at work. This way you'll have both the German and U.S. 5G bands covered.![]()
You win!!!CDC says try to stay with what you originally got if possible otherwise mixing is fine.
I agree with above get the one that works best for you.
I just read that Moderna's durability towards delta is 76%, while Pfizer's is 42%. Not final but it's a Mayo Clinic study. They are similar, but the main difference may be volume of medicine involved. A Moderna dose is almost x3 the CCs as the Pfizer I think.I don't think it matters a whole lot between the two mRNA shots since they're nearly identical.
Just do whichever is easiest for you.
EDIT: I would consider getting a J&J over another of the same vaccine if its an option ... I would decline any of the other vaccine-choices at the moment as a booster though. (I had Moderna originally ... far as I'm concerned it and Pfizer are equivalent)
I am 2x Moderna, will be at 8 months in early Nov. since 2nd shot. I got neither through my HMO (Kaiser Permanente), but figure I am apt to get the booster through them and will get whatever they offer me, and figure it'll probably be Moderna. I figure it's probably no big deal which I get. I'd prefer one tailored to Delta and it's variants, but looks like that isn't in the cards for the original boosters.I just read that Moderna's durability towards delta is 76%, while Pfizer's is 42%.

J&J booster seems very robust though.
Wut? Moderna 3rd is different than first two?I'm sticking with Moderna myself, I like that they are making the booster address more than just covid too (4 diseases in total?)
Thought mixing the vaccines was ok too, but then I saw this: maybe don't do it if you got Pfizer?
News to me, I doubt it...Wut? Moderna 3rd is different than first two?
I haven’t heard that.

The phase 1 trials for Moderna's mRNA-1010 were started in early July IIRC. It addresses 4 versions of flu: A H1N1, H3N2 and influenza B Yamagata and Victoria – all of which are recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). So normal flu, covid19, and the HSV pair.News to me, I doubt it...
Yeah I have heard this but it is still trials. Not the vaccine you would get now.The phase 1 trials for Moderna's mRNA-1010 were started in early July IIRC.
