I was under the impression that they were already giving 5th jabs = judging by the plethora of posts recently about it.

I have a friend who had a liver transplant so his immune system I severely compromised. He’s been part of a study to check his anti body response to the vaccine. Apparently the response shows a (comparatively) short term protection versus several months protection. His tests showed he had the optimum response. We are all individual but I thought that too was heartening. 😀👍
