I got the JJ single shot vaccine and am concerned about its low efficacy around delta variant. Thinking of having a second mRNA shot as booster. Anyone in similar boat or have done so? Please share your thoughts 🙏. Thank you

Isn't it better to wait for the studies to come out? The mRNA vaccines also show a drop in efficacy as well and there is also the potential for future variants that need new shots that are attuned to them.

Also got JnJ but I think it will still provide enough protection to keep things from getting too serious. Will get the booster when it is supported

Ideally yes. A few white papers have been submitted on booster recommendations but CDC is taking its own sweet time to approve. I am a high risk individual and concerned about the pace a t which delta is spreading. This variant shows 1000x virals in the body as compared to the original strain.

It won't hurt you....except maybe some soreness at the injection site.

I just saw a thread that said someone got turned away when they tried to double up with Pfizer after J&J. Also you should do a little research on the three vaccines efficiencies if you haven’t already, really like comparing apples and oranges.

Isn’t the government talking about a booster soon? You should probably talk to your doctor about what’s best here. I think I read somewhere that the latest data suggest a high %age of people getting the delta were fully vaccinated with an mRNA vaccine.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
