Our whole family got Covid prior to the shot being given. I received the first shot but not any of the boosters. My children the same. My husband has gotten every booster. The interesting thing is when we go to the doctors for check ups and stuff for us or the kids, not one doctor asks if we are boosted but they do ask about the flu shot.
I was ready to be given a hard time at my DD's well visit last month- the year prior she was too young for the vaccine as she was 11 and they were still only approved for 12 and up at that point.
So I thought for sure this year would be a fight but they did not even bring it up. They only mentioned the meningitis shot which she needed for 7th grade anyway and she made a mention of the HPV which I just politely declined and not a word was said about that either.
But the Covid shot was not even mentioned- didn't ask if she had it, didn't ask if she wanted it. I was very impressed.
Probably because it is not needed for almost anything anymore. It is sad for the people who had to get it for school or work and now it is not mandated.
While things are getting better, that’s actually not true. Most colleges still require the two initial vaccines and some are even requiring the booster. Some schools will not even allow parents on campus if they are not vaccinated. Also the pre college and other programs for high school students are mostly requiring vaccination as well, even just to step foot on campus for like an audition.
Our ped didn’t bring it up either at either one of my kids physicals. I know they got a lot of pushback and slack from parents especially when it came out that the kids shot wasn’t effective at all. I was surprised when one of the highly pro-vax peds in our practice acknowledged that they had seen more vaccine reactions in their patients than kids seriously Sick from covid (which was almost none).
Mine does classes from home but did have to get vaccinated (and almost boosted) last year to go into the school. They also had to wear masks and test weekly. I thought this was lifted at this point.
Most jobs don't require it anymore and now most vacation places (including cruises) have no mandates anymore.
Unfortunately this isn’t accurate. Many jobs still do actually as ridiculous as it is at this point, all nyc employees including DOE I believe are still required. Most college faculty. Nyc private employee mandate still in effect until November 1 so that’s pretty much anyone who works in nyc. It’s really sick at this point, unfair and makes you wonder what is the real agenda here. And don’t forget pretty much all healthcare workers too.
This is not true. The company I work for lifted the mandate in the spring, maybe early summer for all employees including the NYC office.
Interesting. How did that work with the NYC mandate put in place by the mayor though? My company is so paranoid of a fine that they still aren't allowing me in until Nov 1st when the city mandate is officially lifted
I am confused because I am sure the NYC mandate was lifted, which, is why my office changed the regulation. Maybe for private companies the mandates aren't required.
Still in effect for private sector in NYC until Nov 1st He lifted it on 9/20 and it goes into effect on 11/1 Article
I guess they felt he can go scratch. It was lifted for all offices and all sponsored events.

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
I am quite sure it's not even being enforced. Can you imagine the manpower it would take to police that with the sheer volume of private business and offices in NYC? Will they be knocking on the door of our little office suite on the 46th floor of Penn Plaza and asking to see our papers? Such nonsense. Meanwhile the crime is through the roof but yeah, worry about this bullshitt.

I don't think it is either. I have not been back to the office because I am not even a little bit vaccinated and I am not getting it at all so I'm legally not allowed to return until Nov. 1st when the mandate is lifted for private firms. My boss knows I'm not vaccinated so I haven't even attempted to return.
My friends husband works with me and he only has his first shot so he's not fully vaccinated but he's been back into the office so who knows. We supposedly have to attest to our status on a website but its by the honor system.

Yes - the FDNY still needs it as well, it was only overturned for the NYPD. I'm assuming DOE employees need to be vaccinated too.
DOE does not require it.
Nyc doe does Link
I believe it's only been lifted for private sector employees and NYPD at this point. I know FDNY is in court to overturn as well.
For the DOE...
Vaccination Requirements: Vaccination is still required for all visitors entering school buildings Vaccination is still required for all DOE employees Vaccination is still required for other individuals who work in DOE buildings Vaccination is no longer required to participate in high-risk extracurricular activities including high-risk PSAL sports
Strange because my child just started with DOE and they need none of that nor does anyone else. Maybe just NYC. And all the new employees are not vaccinated at all.

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
I had Covid once in January. I did get the booster in July. My family and I were traveling to Florida, and the booster gave me a sense of security.

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
We all got the first booster but decided not to get any more. I think we had covid back in July but tested negative at home. DS's good friend tested positive the same day DS had a sore throat (they had been together the whole weekend), and then DH and I got sick.

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
I saw a video recently about some people who have a certain gene that prevents them from getting symptomatic covid. I believe I have that gene. I am willing to donate my body to science so they can study me, but I doubt they'd want it considering how I mistreat it.

Yes, just NYC. Long Island schools are NOT mandating it, nor have they ever. Just if teachers decided not to be vaccinated, they had to do weekly testing. But that has been lifted since the end of last school year.

Sucks for them when many businesses no long require that in NYC anymore

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
I wanted to add. I have a friend who is vaccinated and double-boosted. She got covid twice and the last time she had covid it really messed her up. She cannot walk a short distance without being severely out of breath and gasping for air. So I don't really see the point in all these multiple boosters when people end up with Covid anyway.

Re: Not to start a debate - Covid booster
No. We had the second shot pretty late bc we had Covid and had antibodies. The second shot made us very sick (hub and myself) and we had Covid 8 weeks later. We’ve had Covid several times and now just deal. No boosters for us going forward . Kids not vaccinated and they won’t be. We all just got over Covid and my hubs and I get hit much harder than the kids. They barely get symptoms

Wonder why there is a shortage of people working at some jobs now. SMH
Many lawsuits against the city being won right now so hopefully the FDNY will follow suit. Now there is a precedence in the courts.
The New York State Supreme Court just ruled the mandate unconstitutional and reinstated all employees fired for being unvaccinated as well as ordered backpay for them. So looks like the nightmare is finally coming to an end.

Yup and you looked like a horrible person to believe it. More and more people are waking up to see how so much was not true with what they shoved down our throats. All control.
