Which they should have explained. Pretty sure it has to do with the Pfizer boosters.

6. Vaccinations AND Boosters

Moderna and J&J would be in the category of vaccinations.

Pfizer would be in the category of both vaccinations and boosters.

Of course Pfizer only booster so far. Soon the others will be.

(However, as a lesser aside, I'm wondering if the third shot of the three vaccines that was available earlier this month to people with special conditions, lowering the efficacy of the first vaccinations is still given; it was being confusingly called a booster also.)

In any case, looks okay to me.

She told me it was just more of the same with which I'd already been vaccinated. I figured it couldn't hurt and might help, so I went ahead with it. I don't know if they're giving it out to the general public now or what.

and then some. I am curious if others could continue to get it; seems like it would be possible, the only one that might not should be the Pfizer third shot.

vaccines for those who haven't been vaccinated, plus boosters, and thought they are explicitly saying it, the booster currently applies only to the Pfizer

The FDA is close to approving a Moderna booster at a half a dose, from what the data shows. Per Bloomberg news.

I definitely would not mix and match
