Probably the way I worded it and didn't explain properly Kat.
I have just checked on the government website and this what they say about the new booster (not the one I had 4 weeks after my second shot)
The booster dose should be given 6 months after the last vaccine injection or 4 weeks after the single Janssen injection.
The Covid-19 vaccine booster campaign started on September 1, 2021
The vaccine booster corresponds to the administration of an additional vaccine injection for eligible persons, that is to say:
- Residents of accommodation establishments for dependent elderly people (nursing homes) and long-term care units
- People 65 and over living at home
- People at very high risk of severe illness
- People with co-morbidities that increase the risk of severe forms of Covid-19
- Severely immunocompromised people (who have already received three doses will receive a fourth)
- People who have received the Janssen vaccine. A booster with a vaccine to mRNA (Pfizer or Moderna) is recommended from 4 weeks after 1 st injection.
The booster shots are done only with messenger RNA vaccines, either Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna.
Does that mean you will get a fourth shot?
