What's this?

OK. I surfed around. But heeding my very own "wise policy" advice,


I'm putting this to the lounge regarding boosters...

As a possible immuno-compromised individual, I was planning on getting the booster this week, as Fauci etal are now saying that is "optimal" or somesuch, and everyone should get one. But lo and behold, I read that the FDA "has only approved booster shots for the Pfizer vaccine". So not EVERYONE should be getting a booster shot, right?

I also learned that a third dose is totally different than a booster, and that I (Moderna) probably should have gotten, or need to get that third dose.

So who among us has the straight dope?
