I haven't been keeping up with vaccine news much myself and I might be wrong but I think I remember reading that the problem with the delta strain was that vaccines become less effective to it over time, hence the need for another booster at some point.

As long as delta is still the dominant strain there it might be something else to consider when making your decision.

I think you need to highly consider your actual risk. Are you over 65? Do you already have serious health problems/comorbidities?

If you believe the vaccines are perfectly safe, why not keep going and going? If you think there MIGHT be risks of a new vaccine that they're still studying, maybe you decide it's just not worth the potential risks, but it's up to you and a doctor you trust to ultimately decide.

No matter what you think, you have to realize that we probably don't have all the correct data.

2 months ago the experts were saying you were 5 times better protected if you had a vaccine than if you had natural immunity:

This week they're revealing that natural immunity is actually 6 times more protective than the vaccine:

I believe all that above is talking about Delta risks.

If you're talking about Omicron, the Pfizer CEO says that 2 shots offer 'very little protection, if any,' and also mentions they're working on a new vaccine version that should be more effective against Omicron than the current version:



Are they going to admit the same thing about the 3rd and 4th jab next year after they've sold a few more billion doses? Who knows.

A lot of factors to consider. I'm very much pro-vaccine, but these Covid vaccines are very new and it's debatable if the experts are handling it all correctly and if we're receiving accurate info about the risks, etc. *NONE of this should be taken as medical advice, just my opinion.

I had Covid, along with all my family who got together for Christmas, and we all did fine, thank Buddha. It was a flu. (All except the one unvaccinated family member who already had it last year.) Even grandma who's in her late eighties who's only had the first 2 Pfizer shots did fine.The pregnant wife and I are unvaccinated and we did fine, too. Her doctor was leaning towards her getting the monoclonal antibodies treatment because she's pregnant, but even that has now been revoked by the FDA for emergency use, so what's sound medical advice from the experts today is outlawed tomorrow.

We assume we had Omicron, but don't really know that for a fact, as the tests just say positive or negative for Covid-19.

That's all my experience with Covid, but that's just one side. There's also the side of, 'it's safe and effective and you're a total moron if you don't get your 4th jab ASAP.'

Maybe you just need CBD, a new study finds, lol:

Israel is getting their ass kicked by Covid after 4th shots, so is the answer a 5th shot or what?

And those conspiracy doctors at Duke University are still studying to see if a horse dewormer (Ivermectin) is helpful in the fight against Covid:

The media and half the planet would surely label you an 'anti-vaxxer' for even asking if a 4th booster is worth getting on a public forum.

Actually, it sounds like sounds like Omicron is most of the cases in Cambodia now by a long shot (which is great news, me thinks, as it's clearly a lot less deadly than Delta):

'Experts are of the view that the Delta and Beta strains may still be in the community but what is dominating at the moment is the Omicron variant which is taking a surge with many people infected with it.

Since December 26, the Health Ministry has received very few cases of people infected with the Delta strain and those infected are mainly migrant workers as the majority of all the new Covid-19 cases are those infected with the Omicron variant, including the imported cases.'
