What should our 6th jab contain?

I got my sixth jab yesterday by calling 119. It was Pfizer.

Friends tell me that what they have said they would give us immuno-suppressed people is Moderna - half the original Moderna and half new Moderna targetted at the latest Omicron.

Perhaps Pfizer is updated as it goes along? So the Pfizer we get today is not the same composition as the Pfizer we got at the beginning.

Does anyone know anything about this, please?

I think the new Pfizer vaccine against omicron BA.4 and BA.5 was accepted by the FDA in the US a couple of days ago, I don’t think it had been OKed in UK yet. reuters.com/business/health...

Last week @ a COVID Vacc Centre in Suffolk they talked me into postponing my 6th Vacc until after sept 12 because they claimed the new strains will be covered in the batch of vaccines that’ll be in stock sept 12 onwards. So am now booked for my 6th later this month
