Always get all the vaccines you can. Science is still a thing.

Yes, and get any follow-up shots you're eligible for.

Is there any argument no to get it?

I could see comically bad timing being a valid argument.

Health Canada was saying to wait 3 months after you've had covid before you get a shot, you're supposed to wait 2 weeks after a shingles vaccine, there was some type of interaction with corticosteroids, and I think there was a time-frame recommendation between different types of vaccines.

...but unless you've had covid like 16 times, you should've had at least one shot by now.

I understand "if never had a vaccine" that this person never was vaccinated at all. Where I would say get all the local vaccines ASAP!

Yes. Fuck yes.

Any vaccine that is in abundant supply, is reasonably inexpensive, and is low risk for you personally, you should get it.

Doesn't matter if you could have gotten it earlier but didn't. Flu, MMR, DTaP, HepA/B, HPV, IPV, etc. As many people should get them as possible
