Meta analysis of this topic has shown a potential rare increased risk of a much milder form of Myocarditis from the vaccine, but getting infected by Covid itself leads to ten or more times the increased risk of a much more severe form of Myocarditis with higher mortality rate. Vaccination appears to be significantly lower risk by far.
Maybe if you're an OAP or got serious health conditions like most of these absolute fat shites on reddit who post about being too tired to shag their wife or getting sick every week or so.
Yep. On my 8th or 9th vaccine now. I’ve also had the ‘flu jab since 2018. Never had Covid, but I care for my Nana and she’s 90 and I would hate to be the reason she died. I also work in the events industry and deal with people from all over the world who mightn’t have the same regard for taking care of the wider community. I hope to never put anyone else’s health at risk.
Yup, same with the flu vaccine. I haven't had the flu in years. Had covid before being vaccinated and it was miserable. Why put yourself through it when it can be avoided. Obviously they aren't 100% but they are a massive help.
Get them when they're available, wife's been pregnant and high risk. Makes sense to reduce potential damage to the baby. Haven't caught anything bad since. Baby arrived safely, will continue to trust scientists and get vaccinations
Every year I can. Haven't caught it at all this year. Never caught the Flu for years before this year with it's yearly booster. Immunocompromised so can't take the risk with any disease that has a vaccine for it.
I usually got the flu shot every year because I love my grandparents and want them to live forever. I convinced my husband, parents and my aunts and uncles and their kids do the same. Since Covid I get the flu in one arm and Covid in the other during booster season. (I have no underlying conditions & am in my late 20s).
My husband’s friend got the flu this year and was sick as a small hospital for about a week. We caught it and it was more like a moderate cold, hit us on the night of NYE and we were back in business the morning of the 2nd!
Yup. Like the flu jab. Different about getting it last year and was laid out for nearly two months by d damn virus. Even its nerfed, post vaccine form hits me hard. Seems I need the top ups. Haven't had either fly or focus this year in spite of the soup of infection the kids bring home from school and college. Well worth it
I’m my 96 year old mother’s carer - yes, of course I get the flu and COVID jabs as soon as they become available.
AND I wear a mask when I’m in crowded places!
I don’t for the sheer reason that I’m lazy and in otherwise good health in my 20s. I used to get the flu vaccine yearly when my employer subsided it, and the two years I skipped it I got a horrific dose of the flu, like unbelievably so. I haven’t gotten it this year yet and I’m essentially just riding my luck, definitely plan on being more stringent going forward.
COVID is endemic now, so it just makes sense to me to try and keep ahead of it. Especially when so many people have forgotten everything they learned during the pandemic and go around coughing their dose everywhere in public.
No, haven't had covid or a bad cold in about 2 or 3 years. I find it really odd people get this, then get covid and still go back for more. I notice in my own friend groups that people who get boosters tend to get covid while people who don't seem to not even get bad enough colds to even test.
Not saying it's related, but it's just an observation.
Yup. I care for the mother and she has some health issues and the immune system of a wet paper bag so i get them. If that wasnt a factor id probably just get the flu one, our office is an incubator every winter for sickness.
I got 2 and became incredibly ill which put my life on hold for 3 years, like it awakened some disease or something. I'm not blaming the vaccine, but whatever I have wasn't there before I caught covid/got the 2nd booster & flu vaccine, but now I am slightly better and won't get the shots out of fear what I went through will happen again.
So the side effects from the vaccine caused your life to be put on hold for 3 years, but you’re still not blaming the vaccine? Strange how the Irish worship the Covid vaccine like a god and it can do no harm
Nah my stuff is more gastrointestinal, but I've been in and out of hospital with intense pain every couple of months. I was last in there at the start of October and haven't been in since, long may it last. Thank you for the advice though, I'll have a look there just in case
You had COVID and you had the vaccine, like a lot of us, but you're only looking into how the vaccine might cause issues not the actual COVID you had? ... Really?
No no, not at all. It was probably something to do with covid, probably something to do with the covid vaccine, maybe the flu vaccine, I honestly don't know. I'm not a tinfoil hat anti vaccine goon, dude. I still say go get them, protect yourself and others... But for me, because I can't nail down what it was, if it had anything to do with what happened to me, I won't get another one out of fear it resets the 3 years of progress I made getting better.
But what you are saying makes no sense. Every study done has shown that any measurable negative effects from the COVID vaccine are much less severe than the same measurable effects from having COVID.. (and none have limited long term gastro issues to the vaccine at all). But your response is to vastly increase the risk of you getting COVID just in case, maybe, the symptoms you're having are connected to the vaccine.
Yes, flu and COVID jab every year, mid October this year at my local pharmacy.
Haven't got a cold or flu this season, fingers crossed. Other family members who didn't vaccinate this year, siblings and their families have had their fair share of colds/flus.
Got my first flu vaccine back about 2009, the mass inoculation programme for swine flu iirc, and every year since.
Also got every COVID vaccine that was available to me.
I believe in science. My dad is a retired GP who came out of retirement to give the Covid Vaccine the first time around in his rural community.
Even though he's retired he would keep up to date on medical research advice etc. He's very smart and I listen to what he advises, considering he knows far more than I do.
Have seen a few deleted nasty comments over my previous comment.
So its "my body my choice" when women want their deserved rights around abortion, but now I should disregard that slogan and just accept any jab thrown at me?? I respect everyone's right and opinion with this argument, and I don't often speak on the matter because I don't really care about pushing my narrative on others, but personally I'm sticking with "my body, my choice".
Peace and love.
The HSE narrowed Covid vaccine/boosters recommendations:
-are age 60 years and older
-live in a long-term care facility and are age 18 or older
-have a weak immune system
-have a health condition that puts you at higher risk of serious illness from COVID-19
It’s quite obvious from their updated recommendation that a healthy person doesn’t need it and I find it very concerning that lots of people here are suddenly ignoring the updated recommendations. Cultish behaviour if you ask me.
Nobody should be forced or coerced into taking any medication or vaccine! It’s insane to think otherwise. What happened to my body my choice??
Completely agree. You're completely entitled to autonomy as is the rest of the population. People who say they don't believe it's the same for vaccines as for womens issues don't actually support bodily autonomy at all.. they are narcissistic virtue signalers. Full stop. Fair play.
Thank you, and I find people who have an opposing view and resort to insults need to open their mind a little bit. I don't have the same opinions as many family and close friends on all things, doesn't make a difference to me. My opinion is merely an opinion. I could be wrong. Who cares.
I'm gonna get hate for this, but I was booked in to get it with my then partner as we wanted it for holidays and hotels, etc. The week of my jab appointment the government started the covid pass craic, where you'd be allowed inside a pub if you presented proof of your vaccination and if you didn't have such proof or weren't jabbed you'd sit in an outdoor area. When I heard this, I pulled out of getting the jab. I felt it was a form of social apartheid, separating people based on their medical private business. I also thought covid was much less deadly than reported, and having got covid already at an early stage I felt my body had the antibodies necessary.
I could go into the fact that the jab was thrown together and untested at the time, so I felt the risk of taking the jab was stronger than the risk of dying from covid. I have got other vaccinations in my life, but the covid one was one I didn't feel the need to.
You're just repeating anti vax nonsense and that alone makes you a moron. No need to butter us up with excuses when you reject scientific consus in favour of Facebook grade "research". You deserve the downvotes, the fact you expected downvotes should clue you in.
Totally agree with you , my teenager only got the jab so they could go socialising again . It was there choice as an adult, as was mine not to have it. I have friends who are immune compromised, whom I go nowhere near if I even have a sniffle. My mum wanted her booster on November. I brought her to get it, her choice. I was always told, its a virus go home . Covid , then six weeks later a vaccine. One that I made a personal decision nit to take . As did others too take.
I don't edit , please feel free . X
It looks like your post is related to a health or medical issue. If it is related to your health as a woman you can visit r/IrishWomenshealth for a better response or if it is pregnancy related you can visit r/Pregnancyireland
I get mine once a year in the autumn, and will keep doing so as long as they still offer them. No point in taking chances, since it's not like anyone bothers to stay home and isolate or even wear a mask at least when they're ill these days. So far I've been able to avoid Covid entirely, or else whatever dose of it I have had was either asymptomatic or was very mild and didn't show up on antigen tests; I've only been sick a few times in general since 2020, but always just a typical minor head cold that went away entirely within a week at most, and I've never tested positive for Covid. Can't say for sure if that's the vaccine's doing or if it's just down to luck and my general reclusiveness, but why take the risk?
Granted I've also never had any ill effects from the jab itself other than a slightly sore arm for a day or two afterwards; if I got some nasty side effects from it like some unlucky folks do, I might reconsider...
Opted for Flu same as last year, chemist had a spare shot for Covid and asked if I wanted it so opted to get it, had a look back on my vaccine records last Covid19 one was in 2022.
Yep, got covid and flu jabs in November and managed to escape being sick this year. I got a rotten dose of flu b over the 2024 Christmas break and said never again! Two weeks of absolute misery at the worst time.
I suppose it would depend on the immune system of the person. People that havnt a hectic immune system maybe would need it more often? But if someone doesn’t get sick and can maintain a robust immune system, why would they bother? If it ain’t broke don’t fix it kinda thing? I know that language might seem over simplified, but still
I get the flu one every year but I don't take the covid ones, had the original 3 and after every one of them my heart would go mental with strong palpitations for weeks after so I'm avoiding the covid ones specifically
Yes. I work front line healthcare. I got pneumonia in 2013 and 2016 ( both years that i didnt get thr flu jab). I just have really crappy lungs. If i get the flu, i will more than likely develope pneumonia. Ive had covid but thankfully post covid vaccination.
Last booster I had was in 2023. I would have kept getting them if I was in one of the groups that the HSE recommends, but for now I don't as I'm not in a high risk category.
I might get them again in future but would chat to my GP first to get his advice.
I got it in November and I’m delighted I did. My other half got it at Christmas and they were bed ridden for 3 days, while I didn’t even get a sniffle. I will keep getting it as long as you can still get a bad dose.
I never even knew there was some sort of booster vaccine. Either way I won't bother getting one. If I'm at the doctors for something unrelated and I'm offered it I'll get it cos it's free and I'm not bothered about it but no I won't be going out of my way to get it.
Nope never got the vaccine and never got Covid either. I also have an unbelievable immune system which my daughter seems to have inherited. She started in a creche when she was 1 and never once picked up a single thing. The staff kept commenting on it to me that they’d never once seen it before especially when all the other kids picked up things going around
Usually but my doctor advised me not to take it this round as he's had a few other patients get very sick from the vaccine. Surprised tbh, he's definitely very pro vaccine/medicines. He said to definitely take the flu.
Yes, and the flu ones. I work in a smallish, badly ventilated, often cold room with a couple of dozen kids and I'm not getting any younger. Vaccines are genuinely the most effective medicine invented yet. I will use any that are of use to me.
I stopped getting them because I kind of just stopped thinking about covid in the last couple of years. I caught it there before Christmas and it reminded me to just get the flu and covid jabs each year moving forward
Yeah im immunosuppressive so get it and the flu jab every year the Mrs and Young fella were both flattened before xmas with flu or covid I was grand
Same
Yup, I have lupus, so get vaccinated for everything.
Same
How come they didn't get the boosters?
Got the original vaccines in 2021 or whatever year it was, haven’t got anything since
how come?
Didn’t need it
why not?
Healthy 25 year old 🤷♂️
You don't need it if you're healthy?
For me, yea
Absolutely, same with the flu vaccine.
I was one of the few in my office to opt for both vaccines but I wasn't sick over Christmas, unlike alot of my coworkers.
Yeah I still get them, probably gonna keep doing it yearly like the flu shot tbh
Husb and I have been taking flu and Covid shot every year.
[removed]
Still a lot lower than the real and serious risks of COVID.
Ok
Stop repeating misiformation so
Case in point https://www.bmj.com/content/391/bmj.r2330

Yes. Worth reducing the chance of a serious infection. I know a couple Of people with long Covid and it’s terrible.
I got them in 2021. I didn’t get one again until September 2025 when I got my flu vaccine.
I had Covid in 2023 and 2024 and it knocked me out so that made me get the jab.
Get them when they're available, wife's been pregnant and high risk. Makes sense to reduce potential damage to the baby. Haven't caught anything bad since. Baby arrived safely, will continue to trust scientists and get vaccinations
Yes. My wife is immunocompromised.
Every year I can. Haven't caught it at all this year. Never caught the Flu for years before this year with it's yearly booster. Immunocompromised so can't take the risk with any disease that has a vaccine for it.
Yes, flu and covid shot every year
Yeah, get a flu and a Covid booster. Just making it routine now
No
Yeah, have MS and take a b cell depleter. I get it everytime and will likely continue.
I usually got the flu shot every year because I love my grandparents and want them to live forever. I convinced my husband, parents and my aunts and uncles and their kids do the same. Since Covid I get the flu in one arm and Covid in the other during booster season. (I have no underlying conditions & am in my late 20s).
My husband’s friend got the flu this year and was sick as a small hospital for about a week. We caught it and it was more like a moderate cold, hit us on the night of NYE and we were back in business the morning of the 2nd!
I'd be lost without the vaccines. I'm immunocompromised and luckily all my family also get their boosters to lower my risks.
Fair play for getting the family to rally around and get the boosters. It really makes such a difference to people who are vulnerable.
Yep, every year with my flu shot since they first introduced it.
Yup. Like the flu jab. Different about getting it last year and was laid out for nearly two months by d damn virus. Even its nerfed, post vaccine form hits me hard. Seems I need the top ups. Haven't had either fly or focus this year in spite of the soup of infection the kids bring home from school and college. Well worth it
Yes as soon as each is released. Had Covid once...got bad hair loss several weeks later.
I got it this year with my flu jab as I'm so fed up of having back to back doses the last couple of winters
Yep, I work in healthcare so I get it the same time as my flu jab
Took the first one have had heart palpitations since. Never again
No ... I haven't got anything since a few years ago when we were all getting the COVID boosters and nothing since... have never got the flu vaccine
I’m my 96 year old mother’s carer - yes, of course I get the flu and COVID jabs as soon as they become available. AND I wear a mask when I’m in crowded places!

Yup. Both every year.
Yep.
Yep, every year. I get mine with my flu jab.
COVID is endemic now, so it just makes sense to me to try and keep ahead of it. Especially when so many people have forgotten everything they learned during the pandemic and go around coughing their dose everywhere in public.

Isn’t it reasonable to suspect that your illness may have been caused by the vaccine? Why are you not inclined to blame the vaccine?
The Covid vaccine, like all other vaccines or meds, has well documented side effects including serious side effects which are ‘rare’.
So the side effects from the vaccine caused your life to be put on hold for 3 years, but you’re still not blaming the vaccine? Strange how the Irish worship the Covid vaccine like a god and it can do no harm
Sound like long- Covid. The vaccine can trigger it too. You should take a long at r/covidlonghaulers if you are still struggling
Nah my stuff is more gastrointestinal, but I've been in and out of hospital with intense pain every couple of months. I was last in there at the start of October and haven't been in since, long may it last. Thank you for the advice though, I'll have a look there just in case

Any particular reason why not?

Overdue for my 5G. When exactly were we meant to get it?

I went to get it in December there, but they told me it wasn’t required because I wasn’t over 65. 🤷🏼♂️
Opted for Flu same as last year, chemist had a spare shot for Covid and asked if I wanted it so opted to get it, had a look back on my vaccine records last Covid19 one was in 2022.
Yep, got covid and flu jabs in November and managed to escape being sick this year. I got a rotten dose of flu b over the 2024 Christmas break and said never again! Two weeks of absolute misery at the worst time.
Yes. They work.
Yep. Have medically vulnerable family members, always get COVID boosters and flu shots
I suppose it would depend on the immune system of the person. People that havnt a hectic immune system maybe would need it more often? But if someone doesn’t get sick and can maintain a robust immune system, why would they bother? If it ain’t broke don’t fix it kinda thing? I know that language might seem over simplified, but still

I got a booster for the first time this year, mostly as exposure therapy for needle phobia though
The amount of yes answers here is the perfect example of how reddit is representative of the general public
Every time I can, yes. They lower the risk of severe illness from a virus that is still sadly killing people.
Yes. I work front line healthcare. I got pneumonia in 2013 and 2016 ( both years that i didnt get thr flu jab). I just have really crappy lungs. If i get the flu, i will more than likely develope pneumonia. Ive had covid but thankfully post covid vaccination.
Twice a year for COVID boosters and once a year for flu.
My wife had been out of commission all last week feeling miserable and I've not had a sniffle.
Man paid the bear tax
Last booster I had was in 2023. I would have kept getting them if I was in one of the groups that the HSE recommends, but for now I don't as I'm not in a high risk category.
I might get them again in future but would chat to my GP first to get his advice.
Yep, get the flu vaccine every year so I've just been asking the pharmacy to throw in the COVID one on top of it as well.
I got it in November and I’m delighted I did. My other half got it at Christmas and they were bed ridden for 3 days, while I didn’t even get a sniffle. I will keep getting it as long as you can still get a bad dose.
Yes because I have numerous illnesses & elderly parents.
Yep. Im immunocompromised so id rather not risk it. Flu and Covid on the same day. Bang bang
My partner has asthma and so we get it any time we're offered. I think I'm on 5 now. Last had Covid in August 2024, that I know of
Never did. Never will.
Respect
Harmful af.
Wait till the bots get a hold of you and your opinions.
Wait till the boosters get hold of them 😅😅😅😅
What are boosters?
I never even knew there was some sort of booster vaccine. Either way I won't bother getting one. If I'm at the doctors for something unrelated and I'm offered it I'll get it cos it's free and I'm not bothered about it but no I won't be going out of my way to get it.
If you’re in the pharmacy for something unrelated you can also get it there for free!
They never offered it to me and I never asked as i said I'm not gonna go looking for it.
I got the first lot of jabs. Didn’t bother with the rest.
Omg no
Nope never got the vaccine and never got Covid either. I also have an unbelievable immune system which my daughter seems to have inherited. She started in a creche when she was 1 and never once picked up a single thing. The staff kept commenting on it to me that they’d never once seen it before especially when all the other kids picked up things going around
Sorry we're only looking for people who say YES around here.
Honestly 😂😂 calling me Trump for making a choice for my body
Arguing with infants honestly lol.
It honestly is, it cracks me up, nothing better than watching people meltdown when you present a different opinion 🤣
Is that you trump?
Nope, Baron
Where's the bots ?
Have never got it and will continue to do so. Got sick once whilst travelling Turkey in 2021 for a week like a slightly worse off flu then was fine.
Agreed
I got Covid three times and had a mild cold each time. Both pre and post vaccine. Dont need it
Usually but my doctor advised me not to take it this round as he's had a few other patients get very sick from the vaccine. Surprised tbh, he's definitely very pro vaccine/medicines. He said to definitely take the flu.
Me too !
Not the jabs .
Yes, and the flu ones. I work in a smallish, badly ventilated, often cold room with a couple of dozen kids and I'm not getting any younger. Vaccines are genuinely the most effective medicine invented yet. I will use any that are of use to me.
I stopped getting them because I kind of just stopped thinking about covid in the last couple of years. I caught it there before Christmas and it reminded me to just get the flu and covid jabs each year moving forward
They're feckin everywhere.
I'd be afraid if I was amer5.
