2% of kids and 7% of adults have gotten the new COVID shots, US data show in c/news@lemmy.world

Wife and I got our boosters a few days ago, and had no issues other than a little soreness the next day. I do think that the pharmacies and doctors aren't promoting it like they have done before. Not even a sign up at our pharmacy that the Covid booster was available. They advertise the Flu shot, but not Covid.

Glad I'm not a stockholder, since the CEO basically says their only product, remote connectivity, stifles innovation and connection. What a world.
