When will we stop seeing this vague click-baity titles?
"new studies suggest" - not conclusive.
"Protection increases in the weeks following a third dose, but it’s unclear how long the effect will last"
"by more than 10-fold 2 weeks later."
After the first paragraph, it was only established that it provides short term immunity against Delta variant. How long will it last? How well will it do against other variants? Also, the demographic receiving booster shot in Israel are mostly elderly. So this impressive infection rate drop was observed only in older demographic. The effect probably won't be as good among younger generations. Repeated vaccination adds more risk, even if it is small per dose, it is being accumulated. Can we keep up with booster shots every six months? Even flu shot is only once a year and choosing next year flu shot strain is a year long challenge.
