    Sidenote: I got my first booster dose October 25
    2021, so since it has been over 5 months since
    that dose, I'm going down to the pharmacy where
    I got that first booster dose & will try to get that
    FDA approved dose right now.

    Follow-up:

    My pharmacy informed me that at some time
    in the past, the second covid booster shot was
    approved for immunocompromised individuals.
    Not sure when that was, but here's an article on
    that written February 14 2022: https://www.verywellhealth.com/fourth-covid-shot-5218686

    However, my pharmacy said they had not re-
    ceived notification from the FDA / CDC regard-
    ing a second covid booster shot for individuals
    age 50 and older, so I suppose I'll have to sche-
    dule a weekly phone call to my pharmacy to find
    out when I can get a second booster.

    I also need to check for news articles about the
    CDC approval process for that.

    Appears I was premature as the following article
    says the CDC (Center for Disease Control) has not
    approved the second booster so it looks like we'll
    have to wait (non-immunocompromised individuals
    age 50 & older) 'til the CDC approves it (presuming
    they do). I'm not well-informed about all this, & find ...

    ... it needlessly confusing & misleading, but hey, as
    readers of this newsgroup are well aware, I'm prone
    to be an admirer for clarity & when an article says
    FDA-approved & says nothing about that approval
    also requiring CDC approval, well there you go, there
    it is. Such is life. In any case, as I often think about, ...

    ... these days, the fact we're not being bombed &
    having our power & water & food & insulin & other
    medical supplies bombed to smithereens as is hap-
    pening to folks in Ukraine (I've seen estimates that
    130,000 or so Ukrainians have Islit, near-total to
    total loss of endogenous insulin), we have far too ...

    ... much to be thankful for to worry / complain too
    much about the 2-step FDA / CDC approvals that
    are required for a 2nd Covid booster shot to be
    implemented for those 50 years of age & older.

    Follow-up 3:

    Turns out my pharmacy received an email at 6:05 PM
    yesterday allowing them to give a 2nd booster shot to
    those 50 years of age & older who got their 1st booster
    shot more than 4 months ago.

    So, as it turns out, I was just a tad early in trying to get
    that 2nd booster yesterday, & today I'm going to that
    pharmacy & getting that 2nd booster shot.

    Yeah !
