I am a 61 year old male who takes medicines for high blood pressure and high cholesterol.  When I got Covid a few years ago, the symptoms were quite uncomfortable.  So, I qualified for Paxlovid, which worked wonders in combination with Advil.  I see there are three new Covid Vaccines.  Given my age and health profile, should I ask for a specific one when I get vaccinated this fall?  When I was vaccinated in the past it was with the Moderna vaccine. 

The most important thing for me is to that you get vaccinated. I do not have a preference for which of the three available Covid vaccines you should receive. I would obtain the one that is most convenient for you (e.g., at your doctor’s office, the local pharmacy clinic, etc.).
