CDC Recommendations for Fall-Winter Immunizations

The CDC recommendations for Fall-winter immunizations were updated as of September 29, 2023. A few states require a physician’s prescription for the RSV vaccine. Information varies on the web on which states require a prescription for the RSV vaccine. The Iowa Board of Pharmacy website is clear on the matter–you’ll need a prescription.

Most states don’t require a prescription for the RSV vaccine. The CDC recommends having a shared decision-making discussion with your doctor to help you decide about whether the RSV vaccine is right for you. The best thing to do would be to call your doctor, the state board of pharmacy, or your local pharmacy to find out how you should proceed.

Wendy’s New Pumpkin Spice Frosty

We got over to Wendy’s to try the new Pumpkin Spice Frosty yesterday. I thought it was pretty good. Sena was OK with it at first—but then decided she wouldn’t get it again.

We’re now focused on trying the Peppermint Frosty. We might have to wait until mid-November, though. I read this was out last year around the same time (mid-November). I don’t know how we could have missed it.
