Looks like Australia is gonna make severely immunocompromised people wait a year between COVID booster shots. :(

We know protection from infection wanes in around four months even in non-immunocompromised people.

"ATAGI continues to actively review the role of booster doses in the COVID-19 vaccination program. New booster dose recommendations are anticipated in early 2023 in preparation for winter. Future recommendations will aim to provide ongoing clear guidance across all groups including time since last dose and definitions of eligibility."

Huh? A year?!

[lilysea]

So, they are saying that if you've already had your 4th dose of COVID vaccine, you have to wait a year for your 5th dose.

By contrast, US/UK are rolling out Omicron booster as 5th dose right now.

Ah, where I am I haven't even heard talk yet of guidelines and rules for a fifth dose, only up to four.
