It kind of flips back and forth as to whether they know for sure if it's safe to do. On one hand it makes it seem like everyone should be mixing and matching when it comes to boosters. But on the other hand they don't really seem to know if it's safe...

"The immunogenicity and tolerability results from several clinical trials have shown that there is no harm in mixing and matching COVID-19 vaccines right now, and instead, it would only build better immune strength. However, there's no relevant, or substantial data to support the safety as yet."
