K_e_short Posted August 26, 2021 #176 Share Posted August 26, 2021 For those that are booked with Carnival and have AZ/Pfizer or Moderna Just listened to John Heald's morning video and he said that they are looking into booster shots, and specifically for Canadians with AZ/Pfizer or Moderna mixes. He didn't go into a lot of detail but I would be concerned for those getting 3rd doses in the hopes they would be considered vaccinated... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schiff1997 Posted August 26, 2021 #179 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Here is the response I received from the CDC this week when I asked about vaccines Here is how I interpret this after getting AZ/M is that my first dose AZ is not FDA approved but my 2nd M is FDA approved which means I restarted the series. The shot of M now becomes my first dose which basically whips out the AZ shot. So all i now need is another M shot. I also read Biden administration recommending boosters at 8 months Thoughts: Thank you for contacting CDC-INFO. Here is the information you requested on Covid-19 vaccine. If you received all recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine that has been authorized for emergency use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or is listed for emergency use by the World Health Organization (WHO), then you do not need any additional doses of COVID-19 vaccine. This currently includes the following vaccines: Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine Johnson and Johnson's Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca COVID-19 Vaccine Sinopharm COVID-19 Vaccine Sinovac-CoronaVac COVID-19 Vaccine If you received a COVID-19 vaccine that is not authorized by FDA or listed for emergency use by WHO, you may start over with an FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine. If you did not receive all recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine that is listed for emergency use by WHO but is not FDA-authorized, you may start over with an FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine.

It’s that they are ignoring the evidence that suggests AZ is fine and AZ plus mRNA is fine, and in some ways better than two mRNA. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask again on the online chat, would be interesting but somewhat not surprised if you get a different answer. believe me I don’t want to have to get another dose, I fully know here I am vaccinated with my mixed dose, but I do really want to travel again. I can’t even go to visit my family in England yet as I am not considered fully vaccinated there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcwife76 Posted September 2, 2021 #191 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) We still don't know for sure if getting that elusive third shot will make us "fully vaccinated" in the eyes of the US CDC. I don't think anyone has tried to cruise using this "method". Not yet anyway. Edited September 2, 2021 by bcwife76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you tell them its your third dose you wont get it. NB pharmacies will give any Canadian resident a dose of mRNA vaccine. They have no way of knowing or checking what you have for vaccines. If you tell them you need your second mRNA vaccine (technically the truth) then they will give it to you. I've already asked about this to a couple of pharmacies. You'll get a hard copy of the vaccine with the vaccine details. Upon returning home you can either go paper everywhere you go or when the vaccine passport comes out in your province, I'm sure registering an out of province vaccine wont be an issue.

Atlantic Girl Posted September 3, 2021 #198 Share Posted September 3, 2021 This week I finally took charge of the mixed vaccine issue and received my second mRNA vaccine after getting a AZ/mRNA mix. My province kept refusing my request to get another MRNA shot, so I went to another province. Without lying, I basically forgot about my AZ dose. I told them that I was not a resident, did not have their health card, and did not have a address in their province. I took my passport and the details of my first mRNA vaccine shot. They filled out the vaccine document for me and even filled in all the details of my first mRNA shot from another province! So now I have one piece of paper showing all the details of both my shots that are the same and the AZ is gone. They said that when the Federal vaccine passports come out that it should be recorded from their province. Either way I now have the vaccine paperwork that I need to travel. It was a very good experience and I urge everyone who has mixed doses to not cancel your travel plans. Check with other provinces and keep on cruising! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
