4. Many countries are looking at boosters for large groups, not just "the most vulnerable"

eg France for all over 65s: https://www.wibw.com/2021/09/02/france-first-big-eu-nation-start-widespread-booster-jabs/
US govt hoping to do it for all adults: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/sep/05/us-covid-booster-rollout-20-september (but it doesn't have scientific agreement for that yet)

"More production facilities need to be built" is not a solution for the current need; sure, build more facilities, and don't start general booster shots until those facilities are running and able to provide them. Use the existing facilities for the existing need.
