There's no data yet on 4th shot regimens as they've only been around about 6 weeksOriginally posted by jeremyp View PostComment

But a 4th shot at least gives a chance to bring the immunity back up after the 3rd shot has mostly worn off, even though it's unknown how long the 4th shot will maintain its effectiveness.Originally posted by bambam1729 View PostComment

Was turned down for 4th shot because my first shot was J&J and that counted as 2. In spite of the fact that it's viewed as the weakest of the vaccines.Originally posted by 18.99s View PostComment

UC San Francisco's chief of medicine in SF Chron:
<<The math is sobering: At the current 5.5% rate of asymptomatic test positivity, ‘In a group of 50 people, I think it’s a 95% chance that at least one person will be positive,’ Wachter said. ‘On an airplane of 150 people, there’s over 99% chance there’s somebody on the plane who has it.’>>Comment

Emerging evidence suggests that catching the coronavirus a second time can heighten long-term health risks, a worrisome development as the circulation of increasingly contagious Omicron subvariants leads to greater numbers of Californians being reinfected.
Earlier in the pandemic, it was assumed that getting infected afforded some degree of lasting protection, for perhaps a few months.
As the coronavirus mutates, though, that’s no longer a given. And each individual infection carries the risk not only for acute illness but the potential to develop long COVID.
“The additive risk is really not trivial, not insignificant. It’s really substantial,” said Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, clinical epidemiologist at Washington University in St. Louis and chief of research and development at the Veterans Affairs St. Louis Healthcare System.
According to a preprint study examining U.S. veterans, of which Al-Aly was the lead author, getting infected twice or more “contributes to additional risks of all-cause mortality, hospitalization and adverse health outcomes” in various organ systems, and can additionally worsen risk for diabetes, fatigue and mental health disorders.
