[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Does anyone know if getting the new booster this week (by 12/24) would still protect for Christmas? Even partial protection??[/quote] What do you mean by protection? Protection against infection, transmission, severe illness? The CDC does not claim that the booster will protect against infection or transmission. The CDC only mentions protection against severe illness. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/stay-up-to-date.html But for non-elderly, non-vulnerable people, the risk of severe illness from Omicron is exceptionally low. A Cleveland Clinic study of 50,000 employees (vaxxed and unvaxxed) was unable to tell if last year's bivalent booster helped to protect against severe covid illness or not, because too few people in the study got severely ill from Omicron to tell.[/quote] Protection just meaning better getting it late than not at all[/quote]
