24. Just because we should know, a third shot of the previous vaccines
Tue Aug 17, 2021, 07:14 PM
Aug 2021

is being given to people who likely had inadequate reaction to the first two doses or dose. It's available right now, "free" at pharmacies, etc.

Booster vaccines are not yet FDA approved, but expected to be, for all people who were vaccinated with good responses that're wearing off and will need to be boosted before long. Pfizer's booster vaccine, and no doubt others, will also be tweaked to be more effective against Delta.

Unless this depraved schmuck got one of the booster vaccines in development, he got a third shot of an old one.
